Project FAQ
I'm hopeful for a November delivery date for the US and December for the rest of the world. I'll be pushing for much earlier, but I know how many moving parts this project has, and I'm working in plenty of padding for things to go wrong.
I'm running a crowdfunding campaign rather than just setting these up for sale because the more I order at one time, the cheaper the decks become and the more features I can spring for - like the magnetic book box, extra cards, and gold foiling. Once the project reaches its funding goal, I WILL be accepting preorders off the Backerkit site, and these orders WILL count towards our stretch goals. But the project has to fund on Backerkit first! Backerkit will also have some limited tiers that will not be available off site. I highly recommend signing up at Backerkit to make sure the project succeeds!
I've done a number of lovely campaigns on Kickstarter, but I support Backerkit's decision not to allow AI art on their platform. They are a trusted business (a lot of Kickstarters used their services already!) and I've enjoyed their transparency and customer service.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
