GitHub Sponsors is a platform that lets open-source developers receive financial support directly through GitHub, with sponsorship pages and Sponsor buttons shown on profiles and repositories. Maintainers can launch a Sponsors page and be discoverable by sponsors, while sponsors can find and fund the dependencies they rely on in a single transaction. The program aims to make open source financially sustainable by enabling flexible payments and invoicing, supporting maintainers worldwide.
