 @emma:rory.gay | fair, ill go put the suggestion there | 17:38:18 |
|  rick.special joined the room. | 17:46:59 |
 Arian | Is it possible to contribute to the open collective https://opencollective.com/nixos/projects/s3-cache-long-term through an international Wire? Got this question from my employer | 18:52:28 |
| Arian | We could do credit card, but I think a wire would be preferrable | 18:52:41 |
| Arian | And/or are invoices also possible? I assume not right? | 18:53:37 |
| Arian | nvm I think we're just gonna go the OpenCollective route. question not so urgent anymore | 18:56:48 |
 raitobezarius | I think a certain form of invoice are available | 18:57:12 |
| raitobezarius | Let me check a bit | 18:57:16 |
| raitobezarius | donation invoice can be crafted for amounts >= $ 1000 | 18:57:40 |
| raitobezarius | by OC themselves | 18:57:43 |
| raitobezarius | wire transfers are also possible Arian https://docs.opencollective.com/oceurope/how-it-works/financial-contributions-how-to-donate/wire-transfer-instructions-via-open-collective-platform | 18:58:07 |
| Arian | awesome | 18:59:51 |
| Arian | Done | 20:16:48 |
| Arian | I'll write a discourse post and tweet tomorrow to ask for other organisations to match our donation | 20:17:13 |
| raitobezarius | do you need me to launch the process to obtain you an invoice? | 20:17:59 |

wire transfers are also possible Arian https://docs.opencollective.com/oceurope/how-it-works/financial-contributions-how-to-donate/wire-transfer-instructions-via-open-collective-platform be careful, the nixos foundation is its own fiscal host, it doesn't go through the OC Europe fiscal host, so this documentation might not apply at all | 21:10:04 |
| raitobezarius | good point | 21:11:01 |
| delroth | currently donors can't send money to the Stichting NixOS Foundation via wire transfer because it hasn't been set up, but opencollective supports it | 21:12:15 |
| raitobezarius | will bring that up to next meeting, we should just do it | 21:12:44 |
| delroth | ah no, nevermind, it might actually be set up already | 21:13:13 |

| raitobezarius | nice! | 21:14:44 |
| delroth | the fiscal hosts admins (whoever that is - probably the foundation's treasurer?) has to manually validate those for them to show up on the opencollective page: https://docs.opencollective.com/help/fiscal-hosts/receiving-money/pending-contributions | 21:18:53 |
