We Are Ideas in Action

Kickstarter has always had a very clear mission — to bring creative projects to life. With over $8 billion pledged, we're proud to say we've been true to that mission. And now we're continuing the momentum. Starting with Late Pledges, we'll be unveiling new initiatives designed to provide end-to-end support to creators and backers, every step of the way. Because we’re more than just a crowdfunding platform.

Back With Heart

When you pledge a project on Kickstarter, you’re not just buying something, you’re becoming part of a unique process. As a backer, you get to connect with creators, offer feedback, discover innovative ideas and rally behind the projects that speak to you.
