Pilot policy v0.1, June 23, 2026

OpenGreenCoin Impact Policy

Official OpenGreenCoin payment experiences route 5% of the payer-authorized gross OGC amount to the Open Source Impact Treasury and 95% to the recipient.

Open impact checkout

Official Routed Flow

95% + 5%

The disclosed gross amount is split atomically between the recipient and impact treasury.

Peer-to-Peer

No Contribution

Normal wallet-to-wallet transfers are not modified or taxed by OGC.

Pilot Limit

100 OGC

The initial maximum gross routed payment is 100 OGC until treasury security is strengthened.

Included Official Flows

  • OpenGreenCoin application checkout.
  • Approved campaign and crowdfunding payments.
  • Approved marketplace transactions.
  • Approved sponsorship payments.

Excluded Flows

  • Direct peer-to-peer and wallet-to-wallet transfers.
  • DEX trades, liquidity activity, airdrops, and grants.
  • Payroll, refunds, treasury disbursements, and issuer operations.
  • Any third-party experience that does not disclose and reference this policy.

How The Split Works

Step 1

Disclose

Show the gross amount, 95% recipient amount, 5% contribution, asset, treasury address, reference, and refund terms.

Step 2

Authorize

The payer signs one Stellar transaction containing both payment operations. Open Build does not need the payer's secret key.

Step 3

Reconcile

The transaction hash and public-safe flow reference are recorded for treasury and campaign reporting.

Eligible uses include climate resilience, community software, public-good infrastructure, education, ethical AI, and aligned open source projects.

Important Boundaries

  • This is an explicit impact contribution, not an OGC transfer tax.
  • It is not automatically a tax-deductible charitable donation.
  • Treasury allocation requires separate review and public records.
  • Refundable flows need a documented process for returning both portions.
  • Pilot caps must not increase before treasury multisig and a policy update.
