Problem: Open-source contributors don’t get direct financial recognition for their work. Solution: IssuePay lets maintainers post bounties on GitHub/GitLab issues. Contributors pick tasks, merge code, and get paid automatically. You can then withdraw your earnings directly to your Bank Account.
Try it out: https://issuepay.app
Questions: Would love feedback on our UX, payout reliability, or any scaling tips.
Note: Open to partnerships with OSS communities!
Thank you, guys ! <3
Name one.
Also not a single link works in the footer, not even the terms of service. The social links don't work either.
On the register page there are also links to terms of service and privacy policy, neither one works.
Also 50% fee is ridiculous.
Appreciate you calling this out. Thanks !
i also don't understand "Limited visibility to hiring companies" - is this saying that my OSS code contribution is not going to have my name on it?
I'll watch this space, but I personally dont think this product is something I want.
Thank you! If you have any more suggestions, please don’t hesitate to share them.

The idea behind the platform is to help folks who might not code themselves, like companies or users, pay developers to improve the projects they care about. So if you use or rely on a project, you can create sponsor issues, and the devs get paid for their work.
It also gives companies a chance to see top talent in action by watching contributors work on real open-source projects before hiring them.
Sure, it doesn’t magically fix the whole “maintainers getting paid” problem, but it’s a way to get stuff done and reward contributors.
