This was initially demoed at FediCon 2025, but CrowdBucks is an open source, self-hostable fundraising system that allows people to financially support one another. You use your existing Fediverse account to hold a fundraiser, and can also donate to other people's fundraisers as well. The form factor is kind of similar to Kickstarter or Patreon.

Klarna is Swedish.

Nasty company though.

Klarna is like a payment layer on top of a payment processor, different things, even they recommend stripe:

Ah. My mistake then.

They are ubiquitous here, even when paying by card it goes through klarna.
