BackerKit FAQ
How does BackerKit crowdfunding work?
Crowdfunding is a collaborative way to bring ideas and projects to life. Project creators post their idea for a project, and backers pledge money to make the project possible. Backers get behind the scenes access and backer-only rewards, which can include exclusive products, special pricing, creative input, content, and more.
To become a backer, select a pledge level that features the reward(s) you would like to receive when the project is successfully completed and make your contribution.
All-or-nothing crowdfunding model: The creator sets a funding goal and a deadline to raise funds. If the project does not meet the goal by the deadline, backers credit cards are not charged and no money changes hands.
Crowdfunding projects can happen at various stages of the creative process. Make sure to check the estimated timeline of when rewards will be delivered. Project creators will keep you updated on the progress toward completion and delivery of your rewards.
Backing a crowdfunding campaign is not the same as purchasing an item from a store. When you back a campaign you are supporting the creation of something new. Rewards are almost always delivered, but are not guaranteed.
When will I be charged for my pledge?
Your payment method will not be charged right away. You will be charged for the amount of your pledge when the campaign ends and the project reaches its funding goal. You will not be charged if the campaign does not reach its funding goal.
What happens after the campaign is over?
The Creator will send out a survey that will ask you for more information about your pledge, your shipping information, additional items you may want to add to your pledge, and collect shipping fees if applicable.
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge.
Any additional payment will be charged when you complete your survey and confirm your order.
Project FAQ
What is MOO?
Moo is a tabletop roleplaying game where you play as a cow with a secret: you’re far too clever for your own good. Your goal? Escape the farm, blend into society, sabotage your rivals, and ultimately seize control of the country. It’s quick to learn, powered by a normal deck of playing cards, and built for wild stories, ridiculous heists, and the kind of political intrigue that only happens when cows are in charge. Expect sabotage, suspicion, disguises, and a suspicious number of animal puns. You don’t need to have played RPGs before, just bring a sense of humour and a willingness to roleplay as an ambitious bovine with absolutely no chill.
What do I get if I back this project?
Depending on your pledge level, you’ll receive Soft-Moo, Hard-Moo, Moo Starter Kits, T-Shirts and so much more. You can also add on extra books or a copy of one of our other TTRPGs Like "The Jeff Paradox", or "The Blood Paradox", or one of the editions of the Catalogue of Chaos. Backers at £1 or higher will also have their name included in the “Herd of Heroes” section of the book.
How do I add extra books or T-shirts to my pledge?
Once you’ve selected a pledge tier, you can add extra items using the Add-Ons section. Available add-ons include: Preview Edition 1 (Print) – £25 Preview Edition 2 (Print) – £25 Preview Edition 3 (Print) – £25 The Jeff Paradox TTRPG – £7 The Blood Paradox TTRPG – £7 Moonited Kingdom T-Shirt – £20 After the campaign ends, you’ll be able to confirm your add-ons in the BackerKit Pledge Manager.
When will I get my rewards?
We aim to begin fulfilling digital rewards (PDFs) in September, and print books will ship shortly after that. If there are any unexpected delays, we’ll keep all backers updated through project updates.
How does shipping work?
Shipping will be charged separately after the campaign through the BackerKit Pledge Manager. This allows us to calculate the most accurate rates based on backer locations. Estimated shipping costs for physical rewards: UK: ~£6 per book EU: ~£10 per book US: ~£12 per book Australia: ~£15 per book If we get more backers than expected, we may be able to negotiate better shipping rates.
Will VAT or customs fees be charged?
Backers outside the UK may be subject to VAT or import duties, depending on local tax laws. We’ll collect any necessary VAT after the campaign through the pledge manager to comply with international regulations.
What if I miss the campaign? Will I be able to get the books later?
If you miss the campaign, there may be a limited chance to order through BackerKit Late Pledges, but we can’t guarantee stock.
Can I upgrade my pledge after backing?
Yes! You can change your pledge level anytime before the campaign ends by clicking the “Manage Your Pledge” button.
