Exit to Community

In the future, Open Collective wants to transfer ownership of the platform
to our community. We're working toward that, and we want to take you all
with us on the learning journey—transparently (of course!). CEO Pia Mancini
invites you to...

Did you know... You can create standalone tier pages with rich descriptions
and embedded videos? Like a mini crowdfunding campaign within your
Collective! Here's a great example

To use this feature, create a tier and flip the 'standalone page' toggle.

build cross-platform workflows for interested Collectives.

address some types of bad behavior, but gray areas keep coming up. How do
we stand up for our values and mission through what's allowed on the
platform, while enabling diversity? We're seeking your feedback as we
develop a policy.
