Question 1

Should I launch on get that bread or Kickstarter?

Accepted Answer

Honest answer: if 70%+ of your prospective backers are in SG, here. PayNow + SGD removes the foreign-card drop-off that costs Kickstarter campaigns 20-40% of intent-to-back. If your audience is global, Kickstarter still has more discovery — but you can also run both in parallel staggered by a few weeks.

Question 2

How do I handle international shipping for physical rewards?

Accepted Answer

Set tier prices to include shipping for SG, then add a flat international surcharge collected via post-funding survey. We don't gate where you ship — that's between you and your fulfilment partner.

Question 3

When does my card get charged?

Accepted Answer

Card-on-file is authorized when you pledge but not captured until the campaign hits its goal. If the campaign fails, you're never charged. PayNow pledges are paid up-front and refunded automatically if the campaign doesn't fund.

Question 4

What happens if a campaign doesn't reach its goal?

Accepted Answer

All-or-nothing: if the campaign closes below its funding goal, every pledge is refunded in full automatically. Creators don't receive any funds, and there's no platform fee on failed campaigns.

Question 5

How does milestone-based release work?

Accepted Answer

Funded campaigns release their money to creators across three milestones the creator commits to during setup. Each milestone requires proof submission (photos, links, deliverables) which our team reviews before releasing that tranche. Backers can see milestone progress on the campaign page in real time.

Question 6

Is get that bread regulated?

Accepted Answer

Reward-based crowdfunding sits outside MAS securities licensing because backers receive rewards, not equity or returns. We're SG-incorporated, Singpass-verified, and operate under Singapore Consumer Protection Act coverage. We're not a payments institution — Stripe handles all payment processing.
