Dear Developers,

We are happy to introduce Flattr in Jolla Store and Jolla Harbour!

Some of you have already noticed the implementation of Flattr in our development roadmap. The Jolla Store backend and client support have been released in the latest OS update Aaslakkajärvi, and we have just deployed Jolla Harbour support for Flattr earlier today.

In case you aren't familiar with Flattr, it is a micro donation service where consumers can donate money to content creators, e.g. app developers. With the Flattr icon prominently displayed in the description of your app, your users and fans can easily reach your Flattr profile and show their support through donations.

To enable this, you need to first register for a Flattr account. After that, please add your Flattr username and link to your app website to harbour application submission page, and submit the changes to QA.

Setting up the Flattr account is free. For each donation, Flattr keeps 10% and you receive 90%. Jolla does not take any of the funds.

For more details, please refer to the FAQ in Jolla Harbour, as well as the Flattr FAQ.

We hope you will find this a useful and flexible way to support your Sailfish OS development work. Thank you for your continued contributions to the Sailfish OS platform and community!

On behalf of Jolla Store/Harbour team, Carol.

Addendum:

Kind reminder from Harbour QA team:

If you are only adding your flattr user name, there's no need to upload binary. All incoming binaries will be tested and it will slow down approvals a lot. Same applies to all information changes, no need to upload binary. Thank you :)
