Just a reminder that survey responses are due today (August 1st, 2026, at 11:59 PM EST). About 91% of surveys have been submitted so far. Thank you so much everyone!
Just a reminder that the second payment will be charged on August 4th, 2026. For this BackerKit campaign, payment will be split into two separate payments:
1st Payment (July 2, 2026): Includes only pledge level and campaign add-ons.
2nd Payment (August 4, 2026): Includes shipping fees, taxes (applicable in Canada only), survey add-ons, and any outstanding payments.
IMPORTANT: Shipping fees were not collected in the 1st payment. It will be collected in the 2nd payment (August 4, 2026). Our shipping fees are as follows:
Listed shipping rates are in CAD (Canadian Currency).
Note: Please note the US shipping fee includes duty and tariff fees. We understand shipping to the USA has become 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.
💵 Please Double-Check Payment Methods Are Up-to-date! 💵
We kindly ask backers to double-check that payment methods are up-to-date before surveys are locked on August 4th, 2026. After surveys are locked, we will be charging cards soon after. This charge will appear on your bank statement as MOCHIVILLE.
