Guest contributions
If you wish to stay anonymous for a specific contribution or don't want to create an Open Collective account, you can use guest contributions to make one time contributions to a Collective.
Recurring donations require an Open Collective account.
- 1.If you have an Open Collective account, make sure you are not logged in.
- 2.Go to the Collective's page and choose a form of contribution.
In this example, our Metadocumentation Collective offers three ways to make a contribution: a custom one, that could be either a one time donation or a recurring one; a monthly, pre-defined contribution; and a sponsor tier, that starts at $100 USD.
3. In Contribution details, make sure you choose One time and the amount you want to contribute.
