I've used Crowd Control for a total of six Kickstarter Campaigns, and I plan to use it on my next ones as well. The Shopify integration is critical to interface with my 3PL warehouses and drive upsells, and the price cannot be beat. For first time users of the new system, take advantage of their white glove service, and get help formatting your initial backer report, as there are some limitations...

Absolutely fantastic. Crowd Control makes fulfilling all of my campaigns a breeze! While the initial set up was hard to figure out, every campaign since has only gotten easier, and their support is fantastic and was there through every issue. So thankful for Jason and Crowd Control!

Awesome, just fulfilled my kick starter campaign with it, and went great. I got a great and fast support from Jason making everything even easier. Works perfectly and is much better than other apps not connected to shopify.

Jason from Crowd Control was tremendously helpful and thorough. We used Crowd Control to manage our Kickstarter and Indiegogo project with over 6,000 backers. It is incredibly convenient to have that entire order history in our Shopify store. So we are happy we used Crowd Control as the solution. It does take some work to set up but it is well supported and the work is no more than any other c...

Using Crowd Control has been an absolutely fantastic decision. It has enabled us to bring all of our customers from Kickstarter and IndieGoGo straight into our Shopify store. I would highly recommend the software and we plan on using it in the future. Thank you to the team behind the app. William Town Mouse Bikes Ltd

I really liked having the rewards in my store and having Shopify calculate taxes and VAT according to store settings. Once I understood how to use Crowd Control, it easier to use than BackerKit. The pages my readers went to so that they could confirm rewards looked great. I had access to their beta for their update and there were a few glitches, but the team worked with me to get things fixed. Exc...

I used Crowd Control as my pledge manager for my Kickstarter campaign for a number of reasons but I'll state the most important ones for me: 1. Integration with my Shopify Store. If you already plan on having your own storefront this makes plenty of sense to start driving traffic to your site. 2. Integration with your shipping carrier through Shopify. I went with UPS calculated rates so I don't ha...

5/5 Stars. We have been using CrowdControl for years, allowing us to manage the fulfilment of 5+ crowdfunding campaigns. The support from the team is amazing (even with the UK time difference). We have used CC from the early days, with the support team setting up GBP currency for us!
— See.Sense
The app does a great job of helping you to get kickstarter customers to enter their reward requests into your shopify site for easy fulfillment processing. The biggest thing to keep in mind is organizing your kickstarter rewards in a way that can be fulfilled without too much back end work. The developer is responsive. Nothing took longer than a day to get adjusted. Multiple emails get sent out, a...

This was an awesome resource to use as my pledge manager for my kickstarter campaign for a handful of reasons: 1. Very reasonable price 2. Great customer support 3. I got to direct traffic to my website instead of a third party website 4. Visually pleasing 5. Intuitive interface with easy instructions Highly recommend.

The App is quite good, Works well. We have around 20% of lost emails so made some manual work for sending the links to our backers. and thanks Jason for taking the time to add a little feature, that's amazing!

We used Crowd Control as a pledge manager for two of our Kickstarters and would definitely recommend them. We started using them before they were in the app store and they have improved a great deal since then. It says a lot about the company, that they are willing to accept feedback and grow. During our second Kickstarter's pledge manager we literally had zero issues, you really can't go wrong...

We looked at several companies to manage our Kickstarter backers. Crowd Control's low cost was the deciding factor but the great customer service and guidance we experienced was top notch. We would definitely use them again!

The biggest appeal with Crowd Control was the ability to use the existing operations for our well-established store to deliver rewards to our 9700+ backers. The easy add-on sales are a nice plus (almost 10% bought add-ons) but I think the best part is the long-term value that we gained. Requiring backers to visit our website and become part of our customer management and marketing strategies is in...

I really enjoyed using Crowd Control for my Kickstarter back in 2018 and I know it has only gotten better since then. Going straight from Kickstarter to Shopify was super valuable when I was managing and full-filling orders 9 months after the Kickstarter was complete. I could place new orders, sell them directly through Shopify POS, and manage all original backers all in one place. So that ever...

Crowd Control was great. The team is super helpful if you have any questions. This was a no brainer for us because there are always stragglers to fill out the KS surveys. My campaign from 2015 is still has outstanding surveys. For my latest campaign this was fantastic because it takes the leg work out of getting surveys to late backers. Plus it allows us to easily track returns and replacements di...

Crowd Control is exactly what I've always wanted for our Kickstarter campaigns. Sending backers to our store to simplify reward delivery and grow our business just makes sense.
— Declan
If you have a shopify store and a successful kickstarter, Crowd Control is a no-brainer. I'd estimate that this app saved me weeks of labor while adding thousands of dollars of value to the campaign. Support was responsive and knowledgeable. App has built in answers to questions about Kickstarter fulfillment that I wasn't knowledgeable enough to even ask yet. Will use again.
— mannkitchen
I used this app for 3 Kickstarters for my brand KLOS Guitars and am very happy with how everything went. The biggest benefit is having your backers on your shopify site so you can fulfill from there. The other great benefit is that it's very easy to create a collection and user interface that facilitates upselling. Using this app has helped us upsell over 20% at times, generating tens of thousands...

I used crowd control for my latest Kickstarter and am very happy that I did. We generated nearly 40k in extra revenue on a 260k kickstarter and so far we've had no issues with any backers. The user interface is intuitive and it allows a lot of flexibility for the unique pledges that always occur when doing crowdfunding campaigns. It's easy to create upsell friendly checkouts and it's so nice to ha...
