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
When will my pledge ship?
This project is anticipated to ship out in the 4TH QUARTER OF 2025. While I do my best to ensure milestones are not delayed, if issues arise all backers will be updated accordingly and as soon as possible.
Where do you ship from?
All items will be packaged and shipped by me from my home in Pennsylvania, USA.
Will you ship to the EU/UK?
Due to the ongoing complexities of VAT and registrations varying from country to country in Europe, I will not be shipping to the EU or the UK. I apologize for the inconvenience!
When will I be charged for shipping?
Once the campaign ends, you will receive a survey a few weeks later where you will be able to select which designs you would like based on your Pledge Level. At the time you fill out your survey, you will be charged for shipping based on the total number of items you've pledged for and/or added on.
When do I pick which colors I want?
After the campaign ends, you will be provided a survey to fill out. There, you will be able to select which unlocked designs you want, as well as add on any additional items you may have missed if you choose.
