Open-source maintainers: 5 GitHub Sponsors settings people skip (#ad)

If you just turned on GitHub Sponsors, these five settings are the ones people most often leave half-done:

1. Goal text - say what the money pays for (time, hosting, a feature).
2. Tier descriptions - one clear benefit per tier beats a long list.
3. Welcome message - sponsors read it; a short thank-you plus where to find updates is enough.
4. Tax info - finish the tax form early so payouts aren't held.
5. Payout schedule - know when payouts arrive so you're not surprised.

We wrote all of this up in a short guide ($2.99, 6 languages). Disclosure: it's our own product (#ad). → https://bamsuni.com/money/en/github-sponsors-setup-guide/
