Galaxy Funder - WooCommerce Crowdfunding System 12.0

Galaxy Funder is an elite crowdfunding system for WordPress that transforms your WooCommerce store into a powerful fundraising platform similar to Kickstarter or Indiegogo.

Unlike standalone crowdfunding plugins, Galaxy Funder is deeply integrated with the WooCommerce ecosystem, meaning you can use any WooCommerce-supported payment gateway (PayPal, Stripe, Authorize.net, etc.) to collect contributions.

Core Functionality

Two Campaign Modes: * Fundraising: Standard donation-style campaigns where users contribute to a cause.

Product Purchase: Similar to "pre-ordering," where the goal is to sell a certain number of units before production begins.

Perk & Reward System: You can create multiple reward tiers (e.g., "Donate $25 and get a T-shirt," "Donate $100 and get the Pro Version").

Flexible Funding Goals: Choose between "Fixed Funding" (you only keep the money if the goal is met) or "Flexible Funding" (you keep everything raised regardless of the goal).

Frontend Campaign Submission: Allows registered users or partners to submit their own crowdfunding campaigns from the frontend of your site, which you can then moderate from the backend.

Key Features for Campaign Management

Progress Bars: Highly customizable CSS-styled bars that show the percentage raised, amount remaining, and days left.

Contributor Tables: Display a list of "Backers" on the campaign page. Users also have the option to remain Anonymous during checkout.

Automatic Status Updates: The plugin can automatically end a campaign when it hits its target goal, reaches its end date, or both.

Shortcodes & Widgets: You can easily embed "Support This Project" buttons or progress bars anywhere on your site using shortcodes.

Why choose Galaxy Funder over WP Crowdfunding?

While WP Crowdfunding is a great alternative, Galaxy Funder is often preferred by those who want to keep their crowdfunding activity strictly tied to their existing WooCommerce shop structure. It allows you to sell regular products and run a crowdfunding campaign on the same page using the same checkout flow, which is excellent for brand consistency.

Would you like me to help you set up the "Perk" rules for a specific campaign, or are you looking for the best way to handle "Fixed Funding" refunds if a goal isn't met?
