How would I dontate? The site seems down atm.
- boudewijnrempt 9y agoIt's very slow... The hackernews effect, I'm afraid. Internationally, paypal is easiest: just use foundation@krita.org. Otherwise, for people in the EU, our bank account is ING, BIC: INGBNL2A, IBAN: NL72INGB0007216397 .
- laumars 9y agoI hope this (the "Hacker News effect") doesn't bump up your hosting costs as that's the last thing you'd need. For what it's worth, I've donated. :)
- dom0 9y agoEU bank transfers are free of charge.
- kobeya 9y agoHe meant server hosting costs.
- deanclatworthy 9y agoThis is not true for every bank in every EU country.
- icebraining 9y agoYes, I believe the only requirement is that the cost can't exceed of a national transfer, which is unfortunately still not free everywhere in the EU.
- tempay 9y agoI think you can also be charged if a currency conversion is involved (both directly and indirectly through poor exchange rates).
- markvdb 9y agoEuro denominated transactions within the SEPA zone (more than just the EU!) cannot be more expensive than domestic euro transactions. See https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Euro_Payments_Area https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_Euro_Payments_Area .
- beojan 9y agoBut if your country doesn't use the Euro (i.e. the UK), domestic Euro transactions can be more expensive than domestic transactions in the home currency.
- onestone 9y agoThe same loophole is used in Bulgaria. Our largest bank charges 7 EUR for receiving 1 EUR, and 19 EUR for sending 1 EUR.
- sigio 9y agoING Bank charges about 7 cents per transaction on business accounts... it's free on personal accounts.
- therealmarv 9y agonope, only in comparison to domestic charges. In some countries like e.g. Cyprus you have to pay ~3 Euro for a SEPA transfer.
- Moter8 9y agoSEPA transfers are usually free for personal accounts, be it sending or recieving, but business accounts usually charge a < 10 cent fee for recieving a transaction.
- shdon 9y agoI don't even use Krita, but donated €15 anyway, just because I know what it's like to deal with the utter shitstains at the VAT department of the Dutch tax service.
- icebraining 9y agoAs someone who recently paid 200€ in fines to another EU tax authority over 150€ in income, of which I was exempt, just for marking the wrong box, I can sympathize. Just made a small donation.
- antjanus 9y agoIn the US, a wrong "box" cost me around over $3K last year. This shit happens, unfortunately.
- majewsky 9y agoI sent you 50€. Hope it helps.
- skrebbel 9y agoThanks, direct bank is way easier for me than PayPal. Just donated!

- Facens 9y agoWhat about Project of the month on www.unixstickers.com/donations ? I can help
