Kickstarter and Indiegogo consist of mostly gadgets, devices, and physical products.

Which crowdfunding website is best for launching computer software?

So, from my experience crowdfunding software has not been very successful on Kickstarter or Indiegogo relative to other verticals (aside from open source projects or projects by well-known developers).

There are a few mobile app centric platforms: http://www.crowdcrux.com/crowdfunding-p ... -for-apps/

Another is: https://appcatalyser.com/

Open source projects: https://www.bountysource.com/

I think you would see greater success if you used equity crowdfunding to crowdfund a software project like the way that CoFoundersLab did with RockthePost (they raised $155k).

There is this new platform which is currently being in the beta phase, it's called https://donny.fund. It looks like its going to be a crowdfunding for software platform for projects and features.
