About

Liberapay is a French platform for recurring donations with open-source code that enables creators to receive ongoing financial support.

It supports weekly, monthly, or custom recurring contributions without platform fees, team and shared projects funding, and multi-currency support with payouts via multiple payment methods.

Patreon is a membership platform that allows creators to run a subscription-based service for their content and sell digital products directly to their most dedicated fans.

It lets creators set up multiple membership tiers or one-time purchases, publish exclusive posts, videos or audio, manage payments and payouts, host media, and offer community tools like chats and polls.
