Hi you can choose to donate anonymous (not listed), but with a credit card or PayPal account it’s not gonna happen ! Is there a method to make a really anonymous donation ?

You can also make a payment by bank transfer. The OpenStreetMap Foundation has a UK bank account, which you can pay donations into. Note you may be charged a fee for making an international bank transfer.

Details here: Donate - OpenStreetMap Foundation

A bank transfer hardly qualifies as "annonymous", but it does cut out one middleman compared to paypal.

Good to know :)

You could go into a branch of Barclays Bank, and pay cash directly into the OSMF account. That would be pretty much anonymous.

The current donation run mentions a bitcoin address at the bottom of the page. I don't know bitcoin well, but it looks like what you are looking for.

You can also donate indirectly. Here you can see the possibilities.
