Crowdfunding Fulfillment

Reward fulfillment for Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and BackerKit campaigns. Backer-tier picking, custom packaging, international duties, and surge capacity, built by a team that has shipped launch day at scale.

What crowdfunding fulfillment covers

From the funded campaign to every backer's doorstep.

1

Backer-tier picking

Pull the SKUs by reward tier (early-bird, retail, super-backer) with add-ons consolidated into a single shipment per pledge.

2

Custom packaging & inserts

Branded boxes, hand-written-feel inserts, stretch goal bonuses. The unboxing matches the campaign video.

3

Domestic + international

US fulfillment from Ontario, CA and Kernersville, NC. International routing with duties handled, so backers are not surprised at customs.

How a crowdfunding fulfillment runs

From funded pledge to delivered backer in four steps.

  1. 01

    Pre-launch staging

    We receive inventory while the campaign is still live. Components are counted, photographed, and staged so day-one shipping starts the moment your manufacturer delivers.

  2. 02

    BackerKit import

    Pledge file uploaded. SKUs mapped per tier, add-ons consolidated, address validated. Backers with multiple pledges combined to avoid two shipments.

  3. 03

    Wave shipping

    Outbound runs in waves so you can post tracking by region. Tier-1 backers first, international last so customs paperwork isn't the bottleneck.

  4. 04

    Backer support handoff

    Tracking pushed to BackerKit. Lost-in-transit and address-change requests routed through our portal so your team isn't drowning in DMs.

we leased that 126,000 square feet in the middle of July of 2020. And even just the exercise of getting that lease across the finish line was a sprint.

Why founders move crowdfunding fulfillment to us

We've shipped launch day. We know what breaks.

1

Surge capacity reserved ahead.

We staff and reserve carrier capacity two weeks before your unlock. The viral spike does not catch us, or you, flat-footed.

2

International duties handled.

Cross-border routing with duties prepaid where it makes sense. Backers in the EU and UK don't get hit with surprise customs invoices.

3

BackerKit + Kickstarter integrated.

Pledge files in, tracking files out. No spreadsheet engineering between platforms.

4

Founders who've been backers.

We've both pledged to campaigns that took 18 months to deliver. The discipline we bring is about *not* being that founder.
