High Vis Jackets
The OSMF has a stock of OSM-branded high-visibility jackets, which are available at some OpenStreetMap events and online. The Foundation raises funds for each one sold. These can be ordered online from the OpenCycleMap Shop.
KernelConcepts
KernelConcepts are a German company. They sell an "OSM Mug". The mug boasts 179 of the most important OSM tags (plus a somewhat fake "amenity=mug, access=private") and is dishwasher safe. Approx 17% of the price of the mug is donated to what will become the German Chapter of the OpenStreetMap Foundation.
Cachezone.eu
German Web site Cachezone.eu offers some OpenStreetMap related material and donates 10% back to OSM.
From the Cachezone.eu homepage click through to your country's portal to find OSM related stuff — for example, Garmin maps for UK customers. (Note: Free OSM Map On Garmin alternatives are available.)
Storage Depot
OpenStreetMap has a deal with http://www.StorageDepot.co.uk. Storage Depot will donate to us 10% of the price of anything you buy. They are the sole UK distributor of NaviGPS, an ideal GPS unit for our purposes. They also have compatible SD cards that can dramatically increase the logging capacity of the NaviGPS.
Storage Depot also sells a range of storage and backup hardware — USB drives, Firewire drives, pen drives, etc. — you know you need a proper backup solution for your system!
To take advantage of this offer:
- First, place an order with Storage Depot for a NaviGPS or storage device, and any accessories you might need.
- When you receive your email order confirmation, just reply to it, with a copy to merchandise@osmfoundation.org and add the following text:
Please donate 10% of the value of this purchase to OpenStreetMap. My OpenStreetMap user ID is xxx.
Your email should look something like the one on the right (the order number, price and OpenStreetMap User ID are the essential items):
Note: The cc: merchandise@osmfoundation.org is important so that we can audit and reconcile their payments to us.
This is a great scheme which is generating between £30 to £50 for OpenStreetMap every month. Highly recommended.
Amazon
You can get lots of useful stuff from Amazon — wide range of GPS units, mapping books, batteries, memory, hardware accessories, camera accessories, etc. Anything you purchase via the links below will generate 5% to 9% commission for OpenStreetMap, whereas 9% is hard to reach.
- Amazon.co.uk — People are buying all kinds of stuff from Amazon and we are getting around £25 a quarter from this source.
- Amazon.de — (Germany, Austria and Switzerland) The money is transferred to OSM.de via FOSSGIS.
For your information, the maximum fee amazon pays per article is €10,- or £7,-. The commission is paid approximately 60 days after the end of each month. [1]

Recycle inkjet cartridges and mobile phones
Recycle4Charity is running a scheme that will donate money to OpenStreetMap for used inkjet cartridges and old mobile phones (£1 per cartridge and up to £30 per phone). Use this link to order some freepost recycle bags. The money automatically gets sent to OpenStreetMap (UK only).
This scheme generates few pounds a quarter, but it's better than sending your stuff to the landfill, and the really nice guys at Recycle4Charity often send us a few extra quid. They must like this project.

Blankets and Napkins
Soft Cities is a San Francisco-based company that sells custom blankets and napkins featuring a map of your favorite location. Choose from addresses all over the globe. It could be your house, a vacation spot, a workplace, your school, Elvis's house, etc. You pick the location, we make the map, then you have a picnic on your neighborhood!
Each map has been designed by Stamen along with Cloudmade and OpenStreetMap.org, so each style (there are two color choices at the moment) has a fun mappy twist to it. One style has a Midnight Commander-like mix of blues and black, while the second one makes you think of maps on cotton candy crack. Pink land, purple highways, red bridges, rainbow rivers and oceans — why not?
- Custom designed, lightweight fleece blanket — $175
- Mapkins (set of four dinner cotton twill dinner napkins) — $65
These items can be ordered from softcities.net. Gift coupons are also available. 5% of all sales go to OSM.
