Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most from creators and backers.

What happens if my campaign doesn't reach its goal?
RaiseIt uses an all-or-nothing funding model by default. If your goal isn't met by the deadline, all pledges are automatically refunded, and you don't pay any platform fees. Flexible funding is available for select categories.
How do I calculate my real campaign goal?
Start with your production + shipping costs per unit, multiply by your maximum pledge capacity, add 15% for platform/payment fees, and include a buffer for returns or damage. Our Goal Calculator tool helps you factor this in automatically.
Can I edit my campaign after it launches?
Yes! You can update your story, add new rewards, post campaign updates, and adjust images. However, the funding goal and end date can only be modified within the first 72 hours or with special approval.
What payment methods do backers use?
Backers can pay securely via credit/debit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and bank transfers. All transactions are processed through PCI-compliant gateways, and we never store raw card data.
How are international shipping and taxes handled?
Creators set shipping tiers by region. RaiseIt automatically calculates local VAT/sales tax for backers in supported countries. International duties and customs are the responsibility of the recipient unless otherwise stated by the creator.
