Wow! Yes, first of all, THANK YOU for helping us reach more kids by donating your books to a classroom or group of your choosing. Yes, at the end of the BackerKit campaign, you will receive a survey where you can select more add-ons, and there you will enter the physical mailing address where you want your reward(s) sent.

Your card is not charged during the campaign. A pledge is just a pledge. Your card is charged only on September 26th and ONLY if the campaign reaches its funding goal. Therefore, there is no risk in supporting this campaign.

US Backers: Shipping will be assessed at the end of the campaign during fulfillment. We realize that it isn't super fun to pay for shipping in a few months when the book is done, but it is the most accurate way for us to charge the exact costs for shipping each reward. Add-ons may incur additional shipping costs for physical rewards. International Backers: We will do our best to keep the costs for our international backers as low as possible. Please note that recipients may be charged VAT depending on your location. The books will be shipped from the US, but if we receive a large number of international orders, we will figure out another option so that it is as cost effective as it can be for our readers.

When BackerKit announced Booktopia, we thought this would be a wonderful opportunity to collaborate with other authors and generate excitement for this book. BackerKit is a great platform where backers like you can help creative projects like this come to life. Launching on BackerKit allows us to do a print run and create a higher-quality book for you. It also allows backers like you to get unique opportunities and rewards - like being featured in the book itself, adding your name to the end pages, and featuring sponsors. These are all fun things that we wouldn't be able to do if we published it straight away.

This campaign is all-or-nothing, so if we don't make our goal, we will be disappointed, but we will assess what went wrong, and adjust our timeline to get the book published in a different way.

Yes. The book will be available to purchase once it has been published and printed. If the campaign is not successful this will take longer to be available. All of the special BackerKit reward tier packages and pricing are only available during the campaign (Sep 5-26, 2024), so if you wait until the book is published, you will not be able to access the limited reward tiers. Please submit any general, sponsorship, or press inquiries to Lisa: [email protected]

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.

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.

1. Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
2. Select any add-ons
3. Confirm your pledge!

• You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
• Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.

After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.

Pay Over Time allows you to split your pledge into multiple payments over a set period. Your card will be charged according to the payment schedule (four monthly payments). Only available for projects that enable this feature. Learn More »

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.

For specific questions about your pledge or the project, you can view the Project FAQ below, search for your answer within the project, or send a message to the BackerKit Support Team or to the project creator.
