Project FAQ
Our funding goal is set to get us through early Pre-Production of our animated series and closer to releasing a pilot episode. Creating the series will likely be a slower process, and we can't promise a release date at this time, but if we manage to get to our Stretch Goals, that will fully fund a pilot; hopefully we'll be able to release a pilot by next summer! As always, we'll keep Backers informed with project updates <3
A Mashable is when an animal is combined with another element to make a chaotic creature combination. For example, a Cork is a corgi mashed with a shark. A Bumblecorn is a bumblebee and a unicorn. And a Fleep is a flamingo sheep. The mashabilities are endless
We have an online shop over at www.megsmashables.com where you can buy all sorts of chaos! We also have a Patreon that recieve exclusive goodies and monthly rewards over at: www.patreon.com/c/megsmashables
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible. If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged, and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged. Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as: Exclusive products Bonus rewards for backing related projects Discount pricing Behind-the-scenes updates Creative input opportunities
You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal. Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.

Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.

The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.

Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
