What is Merit?

Merit is a bank account for everything on GitHub - if you have a GitHub account, you already have a Merit account.

We've built an entire financial stack that allows you to pay and get paid for your open-source software and contributions.

That means it's easy to monetize code together - instantly, compliantly, and with zero overhead.
