WikiDeal is an libre licensed research and development project by the Ynternet.org Foundation. It aims to create the 'Wikipedia of E-Commerce' — a community-governed platform for fair, transparent contracts and marketplace services. The platform is published under AGPL v3 licence and runs on GNU/Linux.

WikiDeal Credits (WDC) are utility tokens generated by the WikiDeal bonding curve when a support contribution is made. They are NOT a financial instrument, NOT a security, and NOT a guaranteed investment. They represent your accumulated support on the platform and can be redeemed for services or — at the Foundation's discretion — converted.

Cash Reward are held in your individual account and are redeemable for marketplace services or cash out via back.wikideal.net. Gift flow to your User Group or the general WikiDeal community pool, funding shared Infrastructure and collective projects.

WikiDeal Membership (approximately €1/month or $1/month) is the base WikiDeal platform subscription fee. It is NOT the amount you use to buy WikiDeal Credits — that requires a minimum of CHF 200 (card/Twint) or CHF 1,000 (bank transfer). The WikiDeal Membership is the membership fee for using WikiDeal marketplace services as a subscriber.

Minimum CHF 200 for card/Twint payments. Minimum CHF 1,000 for bank transfers. There is no maximum. The bonding curve means earlier funders get more WikiDeal Credits per CHF than later funders.

The bonding curve is a mathematical mechanism that determines the price of WikiDeal Credits over time. Early funders receive more WDC per CHF. As more CHF enters the curve, the price per WDC increases. This rewards early commitment to the project. The current price is approximately CHF 1.22 per WDC.

Membership income refers to the recurring WikiDeal Membership subscriptions paid by active WikiDeal users. This income is distributed according to the bonding curve formula: a portion goes to early funders (Gift), a portion to individual funders (Cash Reward), and a portion to platform operating costs.

There are exactly TWO reward options: (1) Gift (Priority 1 / P1) — your WDC flows to the community pool; (2) Cash Reward (Priority 2 / P2) — your WDC is held in your personal account. There are NO other options. There is no , , , , or option.

The Boost mechanism dynamically adjusts the split between Personal and Gift based on platform demand. When WikiDeal has fewer active funders, the Cash Reward ratio increases to attract participants. When the platform grows, the Gift ratio increases. The current split is shown in real time on back.wikideal.net.

No. Funding WikiDeal is a funding contribution to an libre licensed R&D project, not an investment. WikiDeal Credits are not securities. There is no guaranteed financial return. The Ynternet.org Foundation is a non-profit; this is community co-funding of a public-interest project.

The yearly WikiDeal membership is CHF 12/year, composed of CHF 2 for early funders and CHF 10 for investor-funders. This is different from the support contributions that generate WikiDeal Credits, which require a minimum of CHF 200.

back.wikideal.net is the official WikiDeal support portal where funders can manage their subscriptions, track WikiDeal Credits, and cash out Cash Reward. It is distinct from wikideal.net (the main platform). Always use 'back.wikideal.net' — there is no 'invest.wikideal.net' or similar.

WikiDeal is built on GNU/Linux and published entirely under the AGPL v3 licence (GNU Affero General Public License). The source code is available at codeberg.org/WikiDeal. Contract templates are published under CC BY-SA. There is no proprietary component.

WikiDeal is governed by the Ynternet.org Foundation (Geneva, Switzerland) in partnership with distributed User Groups. Governance is democratic and community-based, inspired by Wikimedia Foundation principles (see Wikimedia References WM-03). No single actor controls the platform.

A WikiDeal User Group is a local community of users who govern a specific marketplace domain (e.g., babysitting in Geneva, street fundraising in Lyon). User Groups elect officers, manage local activities, and receive 10% of subscriber dues from enrolled members (Contract A). Anyone can create or join a User Group.

Yes. WikiDeal subscriptions can be cancelled at any time, month-to-month, with no penalty. WikiDeal Credits already earned are not affected by cancellation. There is no minimum subscription period.

WikiDeal is published under AGPL v3 — if the platform shuts down, any community member can fork and continue the project. Your personal data is exportable at any time (GDPR compliant). WikiDeal Credits settlement in such a scenario would be governed by the Ynternet.org Foundation dissolution rules.

Visit back.wikideal.net to create your WikiDeal account and set up your subscription (WikiDeal Membership). To generate WikiDeal Credits via the bonding curve, make a support contribution of minimum CHF 200. See the Fund WikiDeal page for step-by-step instructions.
