Crowdfunding is a method of raising capital for a project or venture by soliciting small contributions from a large number of people, typically through the internet. Crowdfunding campaigns can be organized for a variety of purposes, including artistic or creative projects, charitable causes, and business ventures.
Crowdfunding platforms, such as Kickstarter and Indiegogo, allow individuals and organizations to create a campaign page, set a fundraising goal, and accept contributions from backers. In return, backers may receive rewards or updates on the progress of the campaign, depending on the type of crowdfunding and the terms of the campaign.
