Hi there! GitHub Sponsors has a new service in private beta <https://github.blog/changelog/2020-12-08-github-sponsors-for-companies-now-available-in-beta/> for invoiced customers. It lets companies who can’t pay with a credit card use Sponsors to support open source maintainers like yourself.
AWS is one of our launch partners with this service and has selected you as someone they’d like to support. The invoiced sponsorship model is slightly different to the regular Sponsors model. In the invoiced sponsorship model, the company purchases an open source health dashboard from GitHub. GitHub then purchases a data license from you to use your open source activity in the dashboard. So the financial relationship is between you and GitHub, instead of you and the company. When you get a payment from GitHub, we’ll also issue you an invoice for the payment so you can keep track of it in your accounts. If you aren't a Sponsors Member already, sign up here <https://github.com/sponsors>! Once approved, you'll need to sign the data provision agreement. The agreement can be found under 'Optional steps' on your GitHub Sponsors account dashboard. Let me know if you have any questions and I can answer them. You can also write in to GitHub Support if you’re concerned about the source of this message and I can answer them from there 😀 Thanks, Stephanie Lincoln. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Netty discussions" group.
