Donate anonymously 1€/$ by year to UBports, all Ubuntu Touch users can do it ! Demonstration...

Is there any way to make a one-time donation? (eg. SEPA, MasterCard, Visa, ...)
-
@jezek Liberapay FAQ states:
Can I make a one-time donation?
No, but you can stop your donation at any time, and it will de facto cease if you don't top up your account when needed.
You can also use https://www.paypal.me/ubports
-
Yes, simply create your donation and delete it after the first payment. Liberapay payment are done each week on wednesday (
tuesday).However, for a donation of 50 euros at once or a recurring donation of one euro for 50 weeks, bank charges are the same with Liberapay, as long as you credit your Liberapay account only once...
Liberapay " currently support most credit and debit cards (VISA and MasterCard), as well as bank wires and direct debits (SEPA only). "

@advocatux said in Donate 1€/$ by year to Ubports, yes we can, with Liberapay:
You can also use https://www.paypal.me/ubports
But this by losing the visibility of the donation (the more patrons the better) which is as important as the monetary aspect in term of project reputation.

@jezek SEPA will be available if we finally become a legal foundation. Currently we cannot open an account so easily, as this creates a lot of legal and tax problems. Say hello to todays regulated world
-
@flohack Thanks for your message. Do you know when the legal foundation will become reality?
-
@gt the current stage is "waiting for the official approval" but German bureaucracy is taking its time, so no ETA for now.

@libremax
oh ... I see, that is how Librepay works. You transfer some money to the Librepay platform (aka. credit it), an then redistribute it to projects.My fault, I just misunderstood something. Everything (about this topic) is clear now.
Thank you.

Wonderfull, in only 2 days, 2 more people (42 versus 40) are now patrons of UBports on Liberapay.
That's five times faster than in the previous six months.
Let's accelerate again in the next days, weeks and months until all UBports users are part of this glorious club.
To be continued...
-
Just a quick quip, be sure to note that you are donating by week, not by month on Liberapay!
-
@unisuperbox
Only payments are done by week. When you create a donation, you can choose an amount, and a period, (week, month or year). So for exemple, you can choose 1 €/$ as amount and "year" as period.
In any case, it is impossible to give more by mistake than the amount you have credited to your Liberapay account.Today 44 patrons, +2
-
I forgot an important element, with Liberapay all donations are anonymous; fixed now.
-
BTW Thanks to the unknown guy who donates me €0.02 each month or so

@flohack in just ten more years, you'll have a pint of beer for free! XD

@libremax
I also tried this argument. To now avail 
I asked for the the Liberapay widget to be put up at least which shows how much UBports is getting. A much better idea would be to ask Liberapay to create a widget which will only show the amount of supporters. So you do not have the names present but at least visotrs to the UBports page can see there are people who support this. -

In fact you receives €0.02 per week from 2 "guys".
Well, it's still 1€ by year. -
@libremax You are right, it might be 2 donors xD

Updated, to date 50 (+6) forgot to procrastinate.
That leaves only a few tens of thousands of procrastinators to wake up.
-
@libremax Just FYI, the widgets are ready to be integrated. There is one which just shows the number of patrons.
