Indiegogo is planning to launch a new \u201cExpress Crowdfunding\u201d campaign format that lets creators ship things while the campaign is on-going instead of forcing creators to wait until the campaign is over.<\/p>\n

Indiegogo spokesperson Maciej Kuc tells The Verge<\/em> that the change was spurred by Indiegogo\u2019s recent move<\/a> to the infrastructure from its new owner<\/a>, board game crowdfunding company Gamefound:<\/p>\n

Switching to an entirely new technology is always a major challenge. The technology Indiegogo is currently working on was originally created for Gamefound \u2013 a slightly more \u201ctypical\u201d crowdfunding platform. Its core assumption was that creators run a campaign to raise funds in order to bring a product to life. The technology expected that at least two weeks would pass between the crowdfunding campaign and the pledge manager phase \u2013 the moment when orders are finalized, new ones are added, and shipping addresses are collected.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

One prominent example of the current system\u2019s delays, which was reported on by Android Authority<\/em><\/a>, was Ayaneo\u2019s campaign for its new Pocket AIR Mini retro gaming handheld<\/a>. Ayaneo originally planned to begin shipping the handheld by the end of November, but because of \u201cplatform policy requirements,\u201d the company says<\/a> it can\u2019t collect addresses for shipping until December 5th. Specifically, Ayaneo says it can\u2019t request to move the campaign into the Pledge Manager phase, where shipping addresses are collected, until December 2nd, and that request takes approximately three days to be reviewed. Shipments will now begin \u201caround\u201d December 10th, according to Ayaneo.<\/p>\n

Indiegogo\u2019s new Express Crowdfunding format \u201cshould be available\u201d in early February, Kuc says.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
