Don’t even bother contacting support The company is extremely unhelpful. Don’t even bother contacting them, as they mark queries and complaints as ‘solved’ without even acknowledging them. I was asking for clarification on something one of their team said, so it’s not like I’m asking them for something they can’t do! And even if I was, a simple email saying ‘sorry, we can’t help with that’ is better than just ignoring me. Makes it even funnier to me that the response to these negative reviews on here, is the company recommending us to use the contact button. If they give the same answer to this it just proves even further the fact that they don’t even bother reading what their users are asking/saying ETA: So look at their response...and guess what happened when I contacted that email? If you said it got marked as 'solved' with nobody contacting me, you get a cookie!

Indiegogo is a scam Indiegogo is a scam. A company that does no verification on campaign organizers. Uses crowdfunding and perks as a mechanism to officiate a purchase. Allows indiegogo to say you didn't purchase a product when you did. Saying that your product you ordered is just a perk of your donation all of this to get around consumer law. Indiegogo is just a mechanism to deliver money to scammers and facilitate there continued operation.

Zero Campaigner Assistance Zero Campaigner Assistance, Extremely hard to use Donor Experience Contacted customer service several times, all they would do is parrot back all the things already on the site. All of my donors told me that donating was very difficult particularly from their phones. All they do is provide a platform for you to do all the work and charge hefty fees. Stick with gofundme or venmo.

Campaign owner broke multiple terms The campaign owner broke multiple terms. Going through Indiegogo's terms and conditions, the campaign owner for a project I was backing broke multiple terms. More recently it appears the campaign owner has been selling stock before sending to backers. I created a ticket to that effect which was closed with no reply. Backing a project comes with risks but when the campaign owner breaks multiple terms and conditions, Indiegogo will not stand by their own terms that are there to protect backers.

Terrible policies for preventing scams Disclaimers abound saying they don't facilitate shopping and there are no guarantees you'll get the thing you backed. BUT when someone takes your money then drops out of contact and doesn't give you anything, indiegogo will send them a message asking them to contact you. That's it. They leave the scammers on the website, free to keep taking peoples' money. They could at least shut the listing down. That seems reasonable. Luckily many of the vendors on the site are honest and you get the thing you backed. But when it goes wrong indiegogos policies are absolutely useless.
