Hey!


Now I normally don't recommend these types of websites as too many of them are unreliable and I don't like to make assumptions without testing them out. I have personally used Backerclub before and so have several of my clients. All in all, they are a very helpful team and generally give a nice boost to campaign pages. Now there is no one website that is perfect for everyone, but either way, they seem to do a good job.


I believe the guarantee now is that if you don't get at least the money in pledges that you paid for your listing fee, they will provide a full refund (correct me if I'm wrong).


Best of luck everyone!

Team backertree!

You can check and make sure their guarantee. If they can not do as promise you will get refund? if so, there is no need to worry about that. Just have a try.

Thank you for this post very informative.

According to what they say, you only pay the $379 if your project gets funded for an amount higher than the $379. So in theory there would be no risk in submitting a project there. I would not know beyond that because I submitted my project but was not accepted. Hope this helps any.

Could I ask why weren't you accepted?

How did they contact you? Via DM or pitch on Twitter?

I asked around a couple friends about them, not the ideal service to promote your project I'd say...

I've backed over 500 projects - mostly on KS and Indiegogo, but also many, elsewhere.
I'm also a member of BackersClub and have DM-ed a few project owners to suggest they use their services.
Two or three did so and were funded and at least one was "not accepted."
I don't know why the owner was rejected, as I never suggest the service to someone I have not already backed (therefore making it a given that BC members would back the project).
That is not up to me, and I generally don't have the time or energy to fight for someone else's project.

-just my .02.

That's interesting. How did you find out about BC?

Not sure how I found out; it was last Spring and I believe BC sent me an email. Although I may be mistaken.

Use them for almost every project. Zero risk. Have a portable charger that's done over $100k so far and to date BC has brought in about $2k.
