Finishing the job Kickstarter started. (crowdyhouse.com)

We listened to the world's designers that cried out when Kickstarter famously said they were not a store. Designers need a crowdfunding platform that acts like a store. Allows for shipping, variable products, order sheets and handles different payments. Welcome to CrowdyHouse - we're stimulating unique design through crowdfunding.

I'm curious of the title of the thread. What do you mean by the job Kickstarter started?
When Kickstarter famously announced they were not a store we realised they had missed out on such an opportunity. We spoke with designers all around the world that we're looking for a crowdfunding platform that acted like a store. A platform that could process orders, list shipping prices, have variable products and accept different forms of payment. We launched CrowdyHouse as the next step in crowdfunding for designers.
Very interesting. The site is beautiful and I like what you guys are doing. Good luck to you!
Thanks a lot :-)
Just launched and we're seeing positive reactions.
