Настройка GitHub Sponsors для вашей организации

Joining GitHub Sponsors

Any organization that contributes to an open source project and legally operates in a supported region is eligible to become a sponsored organization. If your organization operates in a region that isn't already supported by GitHub Sponsors, join the waitlist at GitHub Sponsors. For a list of supported regions, see GitHub Sponsors.

After you receive an invitation for your organization to join GitHub Sponsors, you can complete the steps below to become a sponsored organization.

1. Navigate to GitHub Sponsors.

2. Click Get sponsored.

3. To the right of your organization, click Join the waitlist.

4. Follow the prompts to complete your contact information.

5. Decide whether to receive sponsorship payouts via a bank account or through a fiscal host. For more information about setting up and using fiscal hosts, see "Using a fiscal host to receive GitHub Sponsors payouts."

   Note that you can only set up your fiscal host information at the time you sign up for GitHub Sponsors. If you decide you want to switch to using a fiscal host after your profile has been set up, please contact support.

6. Review the GitHub Sponsors Additional Terms and GitHub Privacy Statement, then click Join the waitlist.

Creating sponsorship tiers

You can publish up to 10 one-time sponsorship tiers and 10 monthly tiers for sponsors to choose from. Each tier has its own one-time or monthly payment amount in US dollars. Publishing tiers is optional.

You can customize the rewards for each tier. For example, rewards for a tier could include:

• Early access to new versions
• Logo or name in README
• Weekly newsletter updates
• Other rewards your sponsors would enjoy ✨

You can give all sponsors in a tier access to a private repository by adding the repository to the tier. For more information, see "Managing your sponsorship tiers."

You can include a welcome message with information about accessing or receiving rewards, which will be visible after payment and in the welcome email.

Once you have published a tier, you cannot edit the price of that tier. Instead, you must retire the tier and create a new tier. Existing sponsors will remain on the retired tier until they change their sponsorship tier, cancel their sponsorship, or their one-time sponsorship period expires.

The maximum price is US$12,000 per month.

1. In the upper-right corner of any page, click your profile photo, then click Your sponsors.

   

2. If a list of your sponsored and eligible accounts is shown, to the right of the account you want to manage, click Dashboard.

7. Click Save draft.

8. Proofread your tier, then click Publish tier.

9. Repeat the steps above until you've published all the tiers you want to offer.

Submitting your bank information

As a sponsored organization, you will receive payouts to a bank account in a supported region or via a fiscal host.

Note that you can only set up your fiscal host information at the time you sign up for GitHub Sponsors. If you originally chose to use a Stripe Connect account when you signed up for your profile, but would like to switch to using a fiscal host, please contact support. For more information about setting up and using fiscal hosts, see "Using a fiscal host to receive GitHub Sponsors payouts."

If you choose to receive payouts to a bank account, your bank account can be a dedicated bank account for your organization or a personal bank account. You can get a business bank account through services like Stripe Atlas. The person setting up GitHub Sponsors for the organization must live in the same supported region, too. For a list of supported regions, see GitHub Sponsors.
