Why do people contribute to campaigns?
People contribute to campaigns for many reasons, but usually it’s because they want to be involved in what the campaign is doing or because they want the perks that are part of the campaign.
How much does Indiegogo cost?
Indiegogo is free to join. There is a fee on any money that is raised, which is 4% of the money you raise if you meet your goal or 9% if you do not meet your goal. For more on fees, see our article: Pricing & Fees
Are contributions tax-deductible?
Most contributions are not tax-deductible. Campaigns may offer tax deductions on contributions only if they are set up as a 501©(3) non-profit and only receive funds into their non-profit PayPal account. For more information on how to set up your campaign to offer tax deductions, see our article: PayPal Set-Up for Nonprofits.
Who do I contact if I have a question about my contribution?
If you have a question about a perk, shipping address or need to provide additional information for your contribution, contact the campaign owner. For all other questions, refer to our Contributor Happiness page or email us.
