Kickstarter Immediate Payment Escrow Service

Published on 10/29/2025 Product Idea Validation (Non-SaaS)

Users want to pay for Kickstarter pledges immediately, rather than having funds withdrawn months later. This service would act as an intermediary, taking the backer's money at the time of pledge, holding it securely, and then transferring it to Kickstarter (or the creator) when the campaign successfully ends, or refunding it if it fails. This solves the budgeting and tracking issue for backers who want to 'set and forget' their commitment. Revenue could be generated through a small transaction fee for handling the funds.
