Crowdfunded batches (all or nothing)
Backers save a card and are only charged if the batch reaches its goal by the deadline.
A creator can pre-sell a batch on Soshi. Each campaign shows its price, its goal (the number of pieces needed to make the batch), its deadline and an estimated ship date.
For backers
- Nothing is charged when you back it. You save a card with Stripe.
- If the goal is reached by the deadline, your card is charged the amount shown when you pledged: price × quantity, plus shipping and any sales tax.
- If the goal isn’t reached, or the creator cancels before the deadline, your pledge is released and you aren’t charged.
- You can cancel your pledge anytime before the deadline.
- If your card can’t be charged when the batch is funded, we’ll email you and you’ll have 7 days to pay. After that your pledge is released.
- The creator doesn’t get your contact details or address. Soshi and its production partners handle shipping.
If a batch is late
Funded batches are made after the campaign ends, so ship dates are estimates. If a batch won’t ship by its estimated date, we’ll email you a new date and you can cancel for a full refund (including shipping and tax). If Soshi can’t get your batch made and shipped, you’ll get a full refund.
For creators
- Your price must cover the production cost and Soshi’s fee, which are shown before you launch.
- Your earnings are what’s left after the production cost, Soshi’s fee and card fees, paid to your payout account after the batch is delivered.
- If a backer is refunded after your batch is funded (for example, it ran late or arrived damaged), the production cost and card fee for those pieces come out of your earnings.
