The website was easy to use The website was easy to use and the risks of backing a product are well documented. I had seen an article in a Japanese online newspaper regarding a toy but it was only available in Japan. I then came across it on Indiegogo unfortunately it was only available in the USA. It was then made available for delivery to the UK. The toy arrived today just 8 days after I invested in the product all the way from Japan, sent via Japan Post and delivered by Parcelforce even though Indiegogo warned it would not be shipped till their 10 cancelation period had elapsed. I was able to track it at every step of the way.

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.

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.

Dishonest company The definition of “fraud” is: “The crime of getting money by deceiving people.” Indiegogo’s platform is built on taking your money, then taking zero responsibility for the outcome of the project you invest in. Don’t give them your money. EDIT: Indiegogo’s reply made me laugh, They spouted the same BS for months while I tried to get a refund for a fraudulent campaign.

Tipping Scam I can see that many reviews are about the product and not Indiegogo (which are inccorrect reviews). My review is about Indiegogo. When paying for your product Indiegogo will add a 35 dollar tip on the order. It is visible in your order before you pay, but it is put on silently. so I payed them 35 dollars tip which I never wanted to. They get money from any orders you make already, so the tip is just a scam.
