Donations

Naturally, the OpenSSH project requires funds to operate -- particularly so that our team members can meet in person once in a while (at OpenBSD hackathons) to design new ideas.

• Cheques
  Simply send a donation cheque in CAD/EUR/USD funds made out to Theo de Raadt, since
  cheques made out to "OpenSSH" cannot be cashed. (Or mail Theo de Raadt for other ideas).

• Credit Card
  The OpenBSD online ordering system can do secure credit card transactions for donations from major credit cards.
  Or you can combine your donation with an order for some OpenSSH tshirts or posters.
  If you are donating specifically for OpenSSH, please mark the entry so.

• IBAN + BIC
  For International bank transfer, people can use IBAN or SWIFT/BIC direct bank transfers.

• PayPal
  We can also accept donations via PayPal

• Recurring PayPal Donations
  
  OpenSSH now also supports recurring payments each month. Consistent donations let us worry less about fund-raising and focus more on development. You can become a member by clicking on this button (you will need a PayPal account):

  You can cancel your subscription at any time by clicking this button and follow the instructions.

While donations are not US tax deductible as charitable contribution, they may be deductible as an operating expense, and if someone is so inclined, they should ask for the advice of their accountant. The same applies to other countries, where corporations can make deductible donations under the terms of "Good Will".

We specifically are not a non-profit organization, as that would limit the nationalities that we could spend such money in.

We include all people who donate to OpenSSH in our OpenBSD donation list.
