List for $20. Keep 90–92% of every sale.

A $20 listing fee plus a $100 listing bond. Platform fee is 8–10%. Every campaign caps at $39 and 100 backers. 70% of the founder's share is held until they deliver — that is the real refund pool, not the bond.

Featured listing

$50/week

Optional boost in discovery. Does not change LTD price or slot caps.

Premium analytics

$9–$29/mo

Advanced backer and founder analytics. Optional. Core product is not gated.

  • 70% of founder share is held until Milestone 2 (70%+ backer confirmation). If they never ship, backers get that hold — about $23 of a $39 LTD, not $39.
  • Backers can list their LTD for whatever price they want. Day Zero takes a small fee when it sells. First Backer badges stay with the original backer.
