Pay Over Time Backers: Backers who opted for the Pay Over Time option will automatically receive their surveys once the 4th installment is paid or their pledge is paid in full, whichever comes first.

Listed shipping rates are in CAD (Canadian Currency).
Note: We understand shipping to the USA has gotten expensive due to the tariff situation. If we find cheaper shipping alternatives to the US by the time we fulfill orders, we will refund backers the difference.

Our survey got approved! 🎉 We have sent out an initial smoke test to 16 backers (please check your email inboxes)! Your survey email should look like this:
Why a smoke test? The smoke test helps us catch any errors and ensure the survey works as expected.If you notice any errors or mistakes, we would greatly appreciate your feedback.
You can message us on Backerkit or contact us via email: [email protected]. Once we receive the survey smoke test responses and everything looks great, we will send out the rest of the surveys.
🗳️ About The Surveys 🗳️
Survey responses help us collect important information about your pledge, including what specific items you have pledged for and your shipping addresses. We cannot fulfill your pledge without a survey response.
Pay Over Time backers will automatically receive their surveys once the 4th installment is paid or their pledge is paid in full, whichever comes first. We will order extra pins of each design to ensure we have enough pins to fulfill everyone's pledges.
Survey Add-Ons: Just a reminder that you can also add extra items to your pledge through the surveys. We also have pins and stickers from our online store available as add-ons in the add-ons page of the survey.
⏰ Timeline Adjustment ⏰
Since we are sending out surveys a bit later than expected, our project timeline will be adjusted as follows:

💵 Please Double-Check Your Payment Method! 💵
By this time, Backerkit should have charged all backers for the 1st payment for their pledges. This charge may appear on your bank statement as either BACKERKIT - MOCHIVILLE or simply as MOCHIVILLE. We currently have a few backers whose payment method has failed. We kindly ask that backers double-check if their payment method has the correct card information on file.
🌻 Pre-Order Store Now Open 🌻
For a limited time, we will have a pre-order store open on Backerkit for those who missed out on the campaign! Please be advised that pre-order purchases are not eligible for early-bird perks or Backerkit campaign freebies. This will be the last chance to get the new pin collection at a discounted pre-order price! The pre-order store will close on March 18th at 11:59 PM EST.
Thank you all again for the incredible support for the project so far. We are so excited to start production soon!

✍️ Backerkit Surveys Coming Soon! ✍️
Backerkit surveys will be emailed to all backers soon. We cannot fulfill your pledge rewards without your survey response. The survey let us know which pin designs you are pledging for and the address to ship your pins to. The survey also helps us determine the quantity of pins we need to order from our manufacturer.
We will be sending out smoke test surveys to 5% of backers first. If the smoke test surveys have any issues or concerns, we greatly appreciate any feedback! You can message us on Backerkit or email us at [email protected].
Once we receive the responses from the smoke tests and everything looks great, the rest of the surveys will be emailed out! We are aiming to send out the smoke test surveys within the coming week. We will post another update once the surveys are ready!
⏳ Pay-Over-Time Backers⏳
If you are a backer who opted for the Pay-Over-Time payment option, you will receive your survey after your final payment has been made or once the payment has been paid in full. Don't worry! We will order extra pins to ensure Pay-Over-Time backers will receive their pins. For more information about the pay-over-time option, please reference here: https://help.backerkit.com/article/805-pay-over-time
🗓️ Reminder of Payment Schedule 🗓️
Just a reminder that your payment will be split into two separate payments. By this time, Backerkit should have already charged backers the first payment. Please double-check that your payment methods are up-to-date and that the payments went through. The payment schedule is expected to be as follows:
1st Payment (February 12, 2026): Includes only pledge level fee and campaign add-ons
2nd Payment (March 9, 2026): Includes shipping fees, taxes (applicable in Canada only), survey add-ons, and any outstanding payments
🚚 Reminder of Shipping Fees 🚚
Just a reminder that shipping fees are collected in the 2nd payment (March 9th, 2026). Every package will include tracked shipping. The shipping fees are as follows:
Note: We understand shipping to the USA has gotten expensive due to the tariff situation between the United States and Canada. If we find cheaper shipping alternatives to the US by the time we fulfill orders, we will refund backers the difference. Listed shipping rates are in Canadian Currency (CAD).
🌷 The Pre-Order Store Coming Soon! 🌷
To our project followers, if you missed our Backerkit campaign, you still have one more chance to get the new collection at discounted prices through our Backerkit Pre-Order Store. However, any Backerkit early-bird perks, incentives and freebies will be excluded from pre-order store purchases. Extra pins from this collection will be available for sale online at a higher price.
If you have any comments, questions, or concerns, please message us on Backerkit or contact us via email [email protected]! Thank you so much for supporting our Backerkit campaign!
We wanted to share that we added a new pin design, Lily of the Valley Display Pin, to the campaign. This pin design comes in 3 colour variants (white, pink, and blue). We also added a blue colour variant of the Angel Wing Potion Pin to the campaign. These pin designs are considered unlocked. To add these pins to your pledge, please add another faerie item pin or potion pin add-on.
Just a reminder that extra stretch goal items are not included in the deluxe collection.
✨ Reminder of All Campaign Freebies & Backerkit Exclusive ✨:
We just wanted to remind backers of all the campaign freebies available for this project. If you meet all the conditions, you may qualify for five freebies. Please check out our collab-partner's project, Walnut And Clam: Kitties' Space Dream.
🌷 Reminder: Pay Over Time Option Now Available 🌷:
The Pay Over Time option is now enabled for this project. This option allows backers to split pledges of $150 or more (before shipping and tax) into four interest-free, automated monthly instalments, and no additional charges. You can switch to Pay Over Time at any point before the campaign ends. After the campaign ends, you cannot switch to a Pay Over Time payment plan.
There are only a few more days left for Pintopia 2026! Thank you all again for the incredible support so far in the campaign! We hope you all are enjoying the new pin collection.
