Frequently Asked Questions
Kickstarter charges a 5% fee on the total funds raised if the project is successfully funded. Additionally, payment processing fees typically range from 3% to 5%.
If your project does not meet its funding goal by the deadline, no funds are collected, and backers are not charged. This is part of the all-or-nothing funding model.
No, Kickstarter does not allow projects to offer equity, revenue sharing, or any investment opportunities. Projects must focus on creating something to share with others.
Projects must fit into one of the creative categories outlined by Kickstarter, such as art, technology, film, music, and more. They must also create something tangible that can be shared with others.
Creators are responsible for delivering the rewards promised to backers and completing the project as outlined in the campaign. Transparency about risks and challenges is also essential.
Once a project is live, you cannot edit key details such as funding goals or deadlines. However, you can update backers about the project’s progress through updates.
Communicate openly with your backers about any challenges you face. Keeping them informed can help maintain trust and support.
Kickstarter does not issue refunds. Once a project is funded, it is up to the creator to fulfill their obligations to backers.
