None (2) · $4.99/mo, or $3.99/mo billed annually (free tier available) (1) · Charity fundraisers: 2.2% + $0.30/donation; personal fundraisers: 2.9% + $0.30/donation (plus an optional donor tip in both cases) (1) · Cloud DocSpace Business $20/admin/mo; self-hosted Enterprise license from $1,500 (50 connections) (1) · Fee is set by whichever Fiscal Host a collective joins (commonly cited range roughly 4-10%, some hosts free); Open Collective's own platform software is open source and does not charge separately from the host's fee (1) · Free -- zero extra cost if you already run Nextcloud (e.g. for Office Suite). If not, standing up Nextcloud itself is also a free self-hosted install (see that entry for full pricing/hosting details). (1) · Free account, no monthly fee on the entry (Standard) tier; pay-as-you-go per-transaction (roughly 1% with a per-payment cap -- verify current rates). US ACH is capped at $5,000 per transaction; $5 per chargeback above 15 in a month. (1) · Free and open source (Apache 2.0). Self-host at only your hosting cost, use the free public meet.jit.si instance, or buy 8x8's managed Jitsi as a Service (JaaS) for scale/branding. (1) · Free and open source. Run by the non-profit Tor Project, funded by grants (historically including US-government sources such as the State Department and NRL) plus individual donations. Funding is not control here: the code is public, reproducible, and independently audited. (1) · Free tier hosts up to 50 participants for 1 hour per call; guests join by link with no account. Paid Meet Professional raises this to 100 participants and 24-hour calls with recording; higher Workspace tiers reach 250. Often bundled with the rest of the Proton suite. (1) · paid plans from $5/mo (1) · Self-hosted is free, no user limit. Enterprise support from EUR 67.89/user/yr (100-user minimum). Nextcloud One managed hosting ~EUR 13-15/user/mo. (1) · Software is free and open source (GPLv2); your only cost is a VPS -- roughly USD 4-6 / month on a provider like [[Digital Ocean]], or a spare box you already run. (1)

None · '''Not recommended.''' Cloud video conferencing with breakout rooms, webinars, and cloud recording. Included here for comparison against [[Proton Meet]] and [[Jitsi Meet]], the alternatives we do recommend. · '''Not recommended.''' Cloud-based team messaging platform with channels, threads, and integrations. Free tier limits message history to 90 days and caps integrations at 10. Included here for comparison against [[Mattermost]] and [[Rocket.Chat]], the two self-hosted alternatives we do recommend. · '''Not recommended.''' Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail, and Drive with real-time collaboration and 30GB-5TB of pooled cloud storage depending on tier. Included here for comparison against [[OnlyOffice]] and [[Nextcloud]], the two self-hosted alternatives we do recommend. · Cloud VPS provider offering Linux virtual machines (Droplets) suitable for self-hosting applications. Straightforward pricing, solid documentation, and a large library of community tutorials make it a common choice for technically capable teams standing up their own infrastructure. · Cloud-based project and task management platform for assigning tasks, tracking progress, and coordinating team workflows. · Doikayt's own self-hosted MediaWiki stack: Docker Compose infrastructure plus a markdown-to-wikitext content pipeline for authoring and deploying wiki pages (this wiki is built with it). · End-to-end encrypted 1:1 and group messaging, plus voice/video calls, built on the audited Signal Protocol (Double Ratchet + X3DH). ~40M monthly users. Registration requires a phone number; usernames (added 2024) let you start chats without sharing it. · End-to-end encrypted chat on the Matrix open standard. Anyone can run a homeserver and servers federate like email; Element is the reference client. 115M+ addressable accounts, with bridges to Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp and others. · End-to-end encrypted video meetings from Proton, built on the open MLS (Messaging Layer Security) protocol. Swiss-based and subscription-funded, positioned as a privacy-respecting drop-in replacement for Zoom. · Event listing, promotion, and ticketing -- event pages, RSVP/ticket sales, and email promotion to an audience list. Free to publish and manage free events with no platform fee; fees only apply to paid ticket sales. · Free tip-jar platform with the lowest baseline fees of the group -- 0% on simple one-time tips -- plus optional shop/membership features. No nonprofit registration or business entity is required to sign up. · Low-friction tip jar and membership platform for one-off support or recurring monthly patronage. No nonprofit registration or business entity is required to sign up. · MIT-licensed, self-hostable team chat with channels, voice/video, and broad integration support. Its omnichannel inbox unifies live chat, email, WhatsApp, and Telegram into one agent queue -- useful if you also want to replace a separate customer-support tool, not just internal chat. · Nonprofit-oriented crowdfunding platform charging no platform fee, explicitly open to individuals, social enterprises, and unregistered community groups, not just registered charities. Scale (per Chuffed's own reporting): 50,000+ organizers, 2.5M+ supporters, $275M+ raised to date. · Nonprofit, volunteer-run wiki hosting platform that provides free MediaWiki instances with a wide range of pre-installed extensions. · Open-source CRM purpose-built for nonprofits and advocacy groups -- donor tracking, campaign management, event registration, and membership -- rather than a generic sales CRM repurposed for fundraising. Integrates as a plugin into WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla. · Open-source password manager: unlimited passwords and devices on the free tier, cross-platform sync, autofill. Officially self-hostable, and the community-run Vaultwarden server is a lightweight alternative implementation for orgs that want to run it themselves. · Open-source video conferencing usable instantly with no account via the free public instance, or self-hosted for full control over data and infrastructure. · Privacy-first WireGuard/OpenVPN provider run from Sweden. No email or personal details at signup -- you get a random account number instead of a username/password. Owned by Mullvad VPN AB (also behind the Mullvad Browser, built with the Tor Project). · Privacy-focused WireGuard/OpenVPN provider operating from Gibraltar under IVPN Limited since 2009. All client apps are open source under GPLv3. Signup requires no personal information -- just the generated account ID. · Self-hostable double-entry accounting: invoicing, online payments, expense tracking, multi-currency, unlimited bank/cash accounts. The free self-hosted tier is limited to one user and one accountant -- fine for a single bookkeeper, not for a team that needs shared access. · Self-hostable, MIT-licensed team chat closely modeled on Slack's channel-based UX -- includes a Slack export/import path to ease migration. Free self-hosted tier runs indefinitely with no per-seat licensing cost; paid tiers add SSO, compliance exports, and HIPAA/FedRAMP-aligned deployment options. · Subscription-based membership platform for ongoing monthly support -- better suited to sustained operational funding than one-off campaigns. No nonprofit registration or business entity is required to sign up; the org registers and operates like an individual creator account. · WireGuard/OpenVPN provider from Geneva, operated by Proton AG and majority-owned by the non-profit Proton Foundation. Founded by scientists who met at CERN; same organisation as Proton Mail. Every client app (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS) is open source. · Zero-fee fundraising, ticketing, and membership platform for nonprofits. Scale (per Zeffy's own reporting): 100,000+ nonprofits, $2B+ raised to date. · Other

None (10) · Explore active campaigns from the Campaigns tab. Mobile apps available on iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). (1) · Syncs with any CalDAV-compatible client (Thunderbird, most phone calendar apps) so people aren't locked into a web UI. (1) · The free plan supports up to 20 email alert recipients — sufficient for most small organizations. Webhook triggers allow integration with custom scripts or chat tools on status changes. (1) · Zero-access encryption means Proton cannot read message content or hand it over even under legal request -- worth flagging for teams handling sensitive organizing communications. No self-hosting option; mail is hosted on Proton's own infrastructure in Switzerland. (1)

None (10) · Commercial Israeli-owned VPNs (Kape's ExpressVPN / CyberGhost / PIA / ZenMate, Hola, Hotspot Shield) reintroduce exactly the operator you're trying to remove -- see [[:Category:VPN]]. (1) · Custodial crypto processors like Coinbase Commerce and BitPay: they take crypto but hold funds and impose KYC, reintroducing exactly the operator-freeze risk that self-custody removes. If the goal is deplatform resistance, a custodial crypto gateway gives up the main advantage. (1) · For deplatform resistance, see [[BTCPay Server]] (the only self-hostable option). The broader case against card gateways is covered on the Finance&Accounting category page. (1) · Zoom and Google Meet are closed-source and not end-to-end encrypted by default, with the provider able to access call data. For a fully self-hosted option, Jitsi Meet on your own server keeps infrastructure in your hands (see [[:Category:Self Hosting]]). (1)
