NewPipe e.V.

The 5th plenum devised a budget plan to spend up to 39.300 EUR. This page gives an overview of our planned spendings.

• With around 23.000 EUR, we plan to spend the more than half of our total budget on paid NewPipe development work. Additional money is dedicated to hardware for contributors, and for some inital UI / UX consulting to determine our needs more closely.
• Taxes amount for most of our Operational Cost, as we are expecting to pay taxes for three years (2023, 2024, 2025) in the year of 2025. We also have to pay administrative fees to our notary and the registration court, and may need tax consultancy. Additionally, a percentage of the money that is given to us goes towards banking and transaction fees.
• After the attendance of FOSDEM as a team was a great success, we have once again allocated some money for Conference participation (i. e. travel cost and accommodation) to meet at the open source conference FrOSCon, and also to spend some focused time together outside of conferences in an internal meetup.
• Our Infrastructure is billed recurringly by our hosting providers. We are also hoping to hire a paid contributor for some improvements to our infrastructure in 2025.
• Like last year, we are planning Donations towards Weblate and Liberapay in addition to the FOSDEM conference. We also sent a symbolic contribution to LuanRT to thank them for their work.
• Finally, Merchandise is used as thank-you gifts for contributors, and as promotional material for our conference attendances.
