How do I make a pledge?

C
Written by Crowdfunding Support

To pledge to a project just follow these steps:

  1. On the project's main page, click the "Make a Pledge" button, enter the dollar amount you’d like to pledge, and click continue.

  2. Next, you have the option to select an incentive, or opt out of an incentive. Note: even if there isn't an incentive at the pledge amount you are giving, you will need to make a selection on this screen.

  3. Next, you’ll be able to review your pledge. Here you can choose to leave a tip to Seed&Spark, and choose if you'd like to have your pledge show publicly or have it hidden (the creator will still be able to see the name and email of all pledges).

  4. On the next page, enter your email address if you’re pledging as a guest, create an account or login if you already have an account with us. Click continue when you’re done. (if you are already logged in this step will be skipped)

  5. Next, you can enter your payment information. Seed&Spark never shares your personal information, and we do not store full credit card numbers – only the last four digits and expiration date. Then click "Complete Order" to place your pledge.

  6. The last page is a confirmation page and you should also receive a confirmation email as well!

Please note: when a pledge is first placed it is a pending payment that only gets charged after the campaign period is over, and only if the campaign successfully raised 80% or more of their funding goal. If a tip is given alongside a pledge, the credit card will be charged immediately for the tip at the time of pledging.
