Project FAQ
Print on Demand is a small scale printing option used by publishers who don't generally have large orders to fulfill. It allows small publishers to not carry inventory or make expensive print runs. When the project is complete you will be sent a code that will let you pay for the printing of the book, if you choose to use it, and get that printing at cost. At the time of this writing, the cost to print the book will be around 23.00 dollars, depending on final page count. This means the total cost of this book is around the average price for a book of this size and content.
All art for the limited custom character option will be created under the direction of Star Anvil Studios. We reserve the right to refuse any particular direction that we feel doesn't align with the setting, We will work closely with backers to assist in creating the character. A form will be provided and each backer will be given 30 days to return information to help create their character. Failure to return the needed info withing the 30 days will result in your character not being in the book. There will be no refunds, please be sure that you consider this before pledging
BackerKit FAQ
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
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.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
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.
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.
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.
