Open Collective doesn't charge fees to hosts that don't charge fees either [1], and most collectives can "self-host" themselves.
It's a great recurring payment option that we're using for our local hackerspace [1]. Though I think their checkout process could probably work better with a bit less friction.
And to stay on topic, we always prefer GitHub Sponsors over Open Collective, since they absorb payment processing fees. :)
