You may even qualify for an extra discount depending on your project configuration and backer count. Contact us for details.

PledgeManager will happily handle all the heavy lifting, freeing you up to focus on the fun stuff — bringing your creative vision to life.

Success with PledgeManager

The team at PledgeManager and I have worked together on my last ten projects and they have been amazing! I tried a different service with my first game and was left disappointed, that is when I found Mel and Adam. It was a smashing success from the very beginning. They are responsive, capable, and overall extremely pleasant to work with. I never have any doubt that no matter what I throw at them, they can help me find a solution. Five stars, would recommend!

Using PledgeManager lifted a huge weight from my shoulders and took a lot of stress off of backer and order management that I was struggling with on my own. They were very friendly and always thorough, saved me tons of time and energy by handling a lot of back-end management themselves, and made it easy to keep all the orders extremely organized. As a creator, it's an integral part of using Kickstarter for me now.
