450 #FSFE supporters affected: Payment provider #Nexi cancelled us
Our long-term payment provider Nexi has terminated our contract without prior notice. As a result, our supporters’ recurring credit card and direct debit donations have been halted by them. This affects more than 450 FSFE supporters, whom we have already informed by email.

Jetzt spende ich nicht nur an die #FSF, sondern zusätzlich auch an die #FSFE.
Gerade auf politischer Ebene ist es wichtig, #DRM zu bekämpfen und #FreeSoftware zu stärken. Sonst wird das nix mit #digitalsovereignty und #unplugbigtech in Europa.

fornire l’accesso ai dati privati dei propri sostenitori.

Because I know some folks might benefit from a reminder whenever this org comes up: FSFE has no connection with FSF. They severed all ties in 2021. https://fsfe.org/news/2021/news-20210324-01.html
EDIT: They seem to have begun rebuilding those ties recently, as evidenced by the update at the bottom of the very link I posted. Thanks for the correction, @multisn8.
Der Zahlungsdienstleister Nexi hat der @fsfe ohne Vorankündigung gekündigt – rückwirkend zum 7. März 2026. Über 450 Spender sind betroffen, deren Lastschrift- oder Kreditkartenzahlungen nicht mehr verarbeitet werden.
Auslöser: Nexi forderte Zugriff auf vertrauliche Supporter-Daten, was die FSFE verweigerte. Nexi spricht nachträglich von einem „Missverständnis” wegen Test-Zugangsdaten.
Betroffene Spender bitte neu einrichten:

"Our long-term payment provider Nexi has terminated our contract without prior notice. As a result, our supporters’ recurring credit card and direct debit donations have been halted by them...
...we know there are always some people who might not read our email. If we lose their financial support because of this unforeseen hurdle, this will affect our work for Free Software."
