    Why are you saying that ? You can make a kickstarter for individual or business... but your country must be allowed. It wasn't the case for us when we've launched, so we choose Indiegogo, now we can use Kickstarter so we'll do :)



    Thanks for your reply. But I really don't see which category should our campaign fall into on Kickstarter....What have changed since you launched your campaign on Indiegogo? You got permission from your conuntry?

    BTW, I lived in Leuven for a year from 2004 to 2005. Love the country :)


    Yep, they've just allow Belgium in the beginning of this month :) (as fews others country). May be if you tell me more about your campaign I could have a look :)

    Kickstarter couldn't confirm my identity.

    Also, the feel of indiegogo is much nicer :)

    Flex funding is a double edge blade ^^ we feel that the hard way

    Like a lot of the people here, I use Indiegogo because Kickstarter is not available in my country. To be honest, I would prefer to use Kickstarter because it draws a larger crowd.

    We used IGG in order to launch our project "SOCCER CITY", a strategy football board game, but generally Backers are reticent to support board games there because don't like the paying format, among other things...
    SOCCER CITY, the beautiful game.
    The strategy board game for football lovers.

    Give it any day, everyone prefer Kickstarter over Indiegogo. Dont lie to yourself.

    The only reason you choose to use indiegogo will be due to country limitation rules by Kickastarter.

    Thats all. No more, no less. The surroundings and interface by Indiegogo might be better, but what really matters in managing a crowdfunding campaign is to attract the crowd and get funded. Which, Kickstarter do better in terms of pledge security and crowd size.

    Lets say you need at least 10% from the crowd to pay attention on your project :

    10% of 500k users beat 10% of 250k users anyday.

    The higher the crowd size is, the higher chance you'll get funded. Of course among many other different reasons, crowd size of a certain cf platform plays important roles too.
