Hi HN! I’m Mario, and I’m about to launch IssuePay.

Problem: Open-source contributors don’t get direct financial recognition for their work. Solution: IssuePay lets maintainers post bounties on GitHub/GitLab issues. Contributors pick tasks, merge code, and get paid automatically. You can then withdraw your earnings directly to your Bank Account.

Try it out: https://issuepay.app

Questions: Would love feedback on our UX, payout reliability, or any scaling tips.

Note: Open to partnerships with OSS communities!

Thank you, guys ! <3

This is not something I could consider touching until I see it in action. The site leaves me feeling very apprehensive.

i also don't understand "Limited visibility to hiring companies" - is this saying that my OSS code contribution is not going to have my name on it?

I'll watch this space, but I personally dont think this product is something I want.

Hi Josh, sorry for the delay in responding and thanks for your comment. I realize the phrase "Limited visibility to hiring companies" might not have been the best way to put it. What I meant is that within the application’s Job Offers section, users with a premium plan will appear higher and more prominently in search results. It’s about priority placement in those job listings, not about your OSS contributions or your name being hidden.

Thank you! If you have any more suggestions, please don’t hesitate to share them.
