Help keep Bow's projects free for everyone.
A lot of people have asked for a way to show some love and support for Bow's projects. Donations are now available for anyone who wants to help—but they are never required.
Free projects still have real costs.
Bow's goal is to keep projects completely free to use, with no required memberships, subscriptions, or payment just to access the work.
Bow personally covers the costs that come with creating and maintaining these projects. As more community ideas are suggested and more projects are built, those costs can grow.
Donations can help with
- Hosting and serversWeb hosting, server-side services, storage, and other infrastructure.
- App store releasesDeveloper and publishing costs when a project is released through an app store.
- Development timeThe time spent researching, building, testing, fixing, and maintaining free projects.
- Domains and project servicesDomains, APIs, testing services, and other project-related costs when needed.
- Future community ideasHelping Bow continue trying new project suggestions from the community.
A donation does not buy priority.
Please only donate because you enjoy Bow's projects and want to support the work—not because you believe donating will move a project to the next stage of development.
No Pay-to-Play
A donation is never required for a project to receive Bow's attention or consideration.
No Priority Purchase
Donating does not move an idea ahead of another project, guarantee development, or buy special treatment.
Same Magical Attention
Every project Bow attempts receives the same magical attention—and the same amount of glitter—as every other project.
All of Bow's projects are done by one person.
From concept and research to design, development, testing, hosting, updates, and maintenance, Bow handles the projects independently through Potter Service.
Donations help offset some of those costs so Bow can keep experimenting with community ideas while continuing to make projects available for free whenever possible.
Thank you for supporting Bow.
If something Bow has built has helped you, entertained you, or you simply want to help make future free projects possible, you can make an optional donation through PayPal.
