Do you have some great ideas for your online radio station<\/a>, but are missing the funding to put your plans into place?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thanks to crowdfunding platforms, you can easily ask for financial support<\/strong> from your fans and even strangers! But with all the different crowdfunding platforms out there, which one should you use to raise some money to boost your radio project?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Kickstarter<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"

Bear in mind that everything on Kickstarter must be a project with a clear goal<\/strong>, for example: creating an album, a book, or a work of art. To put it in other words, a project must eventually be completed, and something must be produced by it.<\/p>\n

How does it work?<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

As a project creator, you’ll need to set a funding goal.\u00a0<\/strong>This refers to the amount of money that you think you’ll need to complete your project.<\/p>\n

Once you have set your funding goal, people can support your project by pledging funds. <\/strong>Kickstarter is what we call \u00ab\u00a0all or nothing\u00a0\u00bb<\/strong> funding which means that no one will be charged for a pledge towards a project unless it reaches its funding goal.<\/p>\n

Your supporters get an inside look at the creative process of your project, and can also choose from a selection of rewards that you propose. It could be goodies with your radio logo<\/strong> for example!<\/p>\n

How much does it cost?<\/span><\/h4>\n

Kickstarter applies a 5% fee<\/strong> to the funds collected. Their payments processor will also apply payment processing fees that can vary between roughly 3-5%.<\/p>\n

If your funding is unsuccessful, no fees are collected.<\/p>\n

2. Ulule<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

How does it work?<\/span><\/h4>\n

To get started simply decide on your financial objective, the duration of your campaign, and the non-financial rewards you wish to offer your supporters.<\/p>\n

Just like Kickstarter, Ulule is an\u00a0\u00ab\u00a0all or nothing\u00a0\u00bb<\/strong> funding so your supporters won’t be charged unless your project reaches its funding goal.<\/p>\n

How much does it cost?<\/span><\/h4>\n

Ulule only charges a commission rate for projects that have\u00a0successfully reached their funding objective.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The commission for successful projects that collect money in a currency other than euro<\/strong> is 6.67%<\/strong> (VAT non included) for all funds received by credit card and 4.17%<\/strong> (VAT non included) for all funds received by check or via PayPal.
