1# Donate2 3Apache software is free software.4 5For those able & willing to support my work, I can be sponsored via [GitHub Sponsors](https://github.com/sponsors/hexgrad). I also accept *unconditional, no-strings-attached* donations in the form of **GPU cloud credit**. This helps me run experiments and train models.6 7Please do not "attach strings" (e.g. model requests, consulting, brand sponsorships) to donations because some of these channels are anonymous: I may not be able to see who sent what.8 9Also, along the lines of "Never buy a product based on the future promise of updates", I would discourage you from donating because you expect a specific model to come down the pipeline. Hopefully, donors broadly believe that good things happen when [someone gets this man (yours truly) a GPU](https://i.redd.it/r8dtt3n9rc431.jpg).10 11### GitHub Sponsors12https://github.com/sponsors/hexgrad13 14### Vast.ai Referral Link15Vast.ai is a vendor I use for cloud GPUs. I "earn 3% of all referred customer revenue as credits": [https://cloud.vast.ai/?ref_id=79907](https://cloud.vast.ai/?ref_id=79907)16 17### Vast.ai Transfer Credit18To **anonymously** transfer $5 of credit directly to my Vast.ai account `hello@hexgrad.com`, you can use `transfer credit` in the Vast CLI like so:19 20```sh21vastai transfer credit hello@hexgrad.com 522```23 24The usage of the `transfer credit` command is documented here: https://docs.vast.ai/api/commands#voyTE25 26```sh27usage: vastai transfer credit RECIPIENT AMOUNT28 29positional arguments:30  recipient          email of recipient account31  amount             $dollars of credit to transfer32 33Transfer (amount) credits to account with email (recipient).34```35 36Note that `transfer credit` seems to be an anonymous command. If I don't say thank you, its because I can't see the sender!37 38### RunPod Referral Link39RunPod is another vendor I use for cloud GPUs. I earn "5% from serverless and 1% from templates": https://runpod.io?ref=pup8o2ly40 41### RunPod Credit Codes42After signing in to RunPod, under `Account > Billing > Credit Codes`, you can "generate a code that allows you to gift funds to another RunPod user":43 44> Simply give them the code and they will be able to redeem it for credits on their billing page. Please safeguard your codes as they are worth money!45> Credits will be debited from your account immediately. You can redeem the code yourself if you want to recover your credits. There is a 2% transaction fee for payment processing!46 47If you wish to send codes, you can do so by emailing `hello@hexgrad.com`, or DM me on Discord `@rzvzn`.48
