Open Collective combines fundraising, expense reimbursement, budgeting, and fiscal-host workflows in one transparent ledger. It is one of the strongest fits for OSS.Fund because it is widely used by open source projects that need both inbound funding and a clear way to pay contractors, maintainers, and community expenses.
