Crowdfunding Creativity

Our website gives everyone the chance to make their ideas happen. It is also a place for people who want to be a part of something new and exciting. A place to help fund creativity!

We provide a risk free way for people to raise money to fund their creative projects and ideas. Here, project creators can showcase their ideas to a wider audience, generate interest and garner the support of the “crowd” – the online community.

Project owners submit their idea and invite people to pledge money to help get it off the ground. This is not an investment. The project owner retains full ownership and control of the idea. What financial backers receive instead are project based pledge rewards: experiences, products, acknowledgments and accreditations.  

Users upload their project, set a fundraising target and a deadline for when they have to raise it by. If they don’t reach the target by the deadline, the money goes back to the backers. "All or Nothing" crowdfunding enables project owners to be confident they will have the budget to complete their project and fulfill their obligations when they are successful. Backers know if the target funding is not reached their money will be returned (minus Paypal's fees).

The ideas that we showcase come from all sorts of people and varying fields such as music, film, fashion, technology, publishing, and more. The motives vary, the budgets vary, the nature of the projects vary, but the one thing that remains constant is the creativity behind them.
