How is this better than Kickstarter?

Someone can put up a Kickstarter and say that "people who pledge at level X will have their name in the acknowledgements. Pledge at level Y and you'll get your name in a footnote in one of the chapters."

In fact, I think there _have_ been Kickstarters for books where the author offered to write high-pledgers into the story in some fashion.
