Common questions
Is there a fee to list?
No upfront fees. We take a small platform fee only when your campaign is successfully funded.
What kinds of projects do you accept?
We're category-agnostic — technology, art, music, community, food, fashion and more. What matters is authenticity and impact.
How long does the review take?
We review every submission within 48 hours and provide actionable feedback regardless of the outcome.
Do I keep the money if I don't hit my goal?
Yes — ideakicks uses a flexible funding model. You keep what you raise, with no penalties.
