# Managing Project Funds

As an admin of a hosted member project, your project benefits from infrastructure that enables you to receive, manage, and spend funds transparently. This section gives you everything you need to know about how money flows through your project, and what you're responsible for as an admin.

Whether you're receiving funds from an external program, approving expenses, or want to know how we handle refunds, we've broken the information down into focused subpages so you can find what you need.
