Open Collective

Open Collective is the legal and financial toolkit for grassroots groups. It's your community's fundraising + legal status + money management platform. Raise funds with full transparency. We handle the paperwork so you can focus on the mission. Whether you're a mutual aid group, community initiative, open-source software project, or climate change activist, Open Collective helps groups unlock access to money. **Fiscal Hosting:** Operate under the umbrella of an established legal entity, so you don’t have to incorporate your own. Hosts take care of accounting, taxes, banking, and nonprofit status. **Shared Accounts:** Manage your budget together. Transparency builds trust and accountability—no one has to shoulder all the responsibility. **Powerful Money Tools:** Pay expenses, receive donations, manage grants, sell event tickets, get virtual cards linked to your balance, and more! **Work with money.** Share fundraising and financial management, connect with your team, and more. **Payments:** Accept funds, transfer money, make payments, and create invoices. **Fundraising:** Publicly display your budget and transactions to build trust with donors and supporters. **Community Engagement:** Post updates, create events, link your website, or use your custom URL for an Open Collective page. **Reporting:** No more spreadsheets. Open Collective updates in real time to make reporting easy. Auditors and grantmakers love us! **Accounting:** No need to balance your checkbook. Everything is accessible on the platform.
