Bootstrapper

Say you’re bootstrapping a side project or want to start your freelance career, but you are not sure yet whether and when you will generate revenue with it. Registering a company or registering as a freelancer would be too much overhead at this point. With the Bootstrapper plan, we’re hosting your project or early freelance business within the co/company legal entity. It allows you to start billing early customers up until to the point when your project is generating enough revenue to justify setting up a separate legal entity for it or registering as a freelancer.

How it works

For each Bootstrapper, we keep a separate account within our shared company, so you can easily see how your early business is doing. You can file expenses to be deducted from your revenue to avoid generating taxable profit.

In case you should generate profit and want to take the money out, you can easily do so. For each payout, we’ll take care of paying the 10% flat income tax and social security for you without having to register as a freelancer or even a business.

You have to pay taxes and social security contributions whenever you choose to get a payout from your early revenue. To help you calculate what that means in terms of "money in your pocket", you can run your numbers through the calculator here. Enter your expected monthly or yearly gross payout and we'll tell you what you can expect to be left in your pocket (net payout).

Bootstrapping Urban Challenger

With Urban Challenger, Daniel and his brother are gamifying city exploration. They have built an app with challenges to complete and compete against your friends or colleagues. They have run rallies for teams from well known companies such as Facebook and Audible, but the project is not yet generating enough revenue to justify a separate business entity with high maintenance cost and accounting effort.

The Bootstrapper subscription is the perfect solution to host their project until it is more solid and they are generating enough revenue to pay the accounting fees for a separate business entity.
