Major crowdfunding platform Indiegogo introduced a new program called Shipping Guarantee this week. Under the new program users are promised that a ship-by date will be met "or your money back".
Speaking to The Verge about this update, Indiegogo chief revenue officer Julie dePontbriand said "Indiegogo is building on the promising results of our initial test programs with an expanded Shipping Guarantee initiative." Programs like these — limited insurance for crowdfunding supporters, you could say — have been done by Indiegogo in experimental form since 2018, but Indiegogo seems determined to make it a mainstream platform feature.
