Notes
First income and expense report of 2026! The most important thing of note this month is the significant surplus in Stripe income, this caused by a combination of a new (welcome!) yearly subscription and existing yearly subscriptions coming due during December 2025. I expect our income to go back down in the coming months unless we get more new yearly subscriptions.
Our expenses remain stable and I expect it to remain this way as no changes to vendors or infrastructure are planned. The next spike in expenses should be the domain registration renewal of tenforward.social in April 2026.
As always, if you would like to make a contribution to support Ten Forward you can do so via the following methods:
Yearly Stripe subscriptions are especially welcome at this time as they help smooth over drops in monthly income.
Thank you all for your continued support and a happy new year to y’all.
