What is Startnext?

Startnext is a website.
Many people use it to support ideas.
They donate money.
This is called crowdfunding.

How does Startnext work?

A person has an idea.
They want to do a project
or start a company.
They need money for this.

The person starts a project on Startnext.
They explain their idea.
For example, with text,
pictures, or a video.

The person says: 

  • How much money they need. 

  • What will happen with the money. 

  • What people will receive in return.

Then anyone can help.
For example, by making a donation.
Or they can buy a reward.

Why does Startnext exist?

Startnext has been around since 2010.
The founders are called Denis and Tino.

They saw that
many creative people have similar problems.

For example: 

  • They want to become better known. 

  • They are looking for a community. 

  • They need money. 

  • They want to know if their idea is good. 

  • They want to meet other people who can help.

Startnext helps with all these things.
On Startnext, you can present your idea.
And many people can support the idea.

How much does Startnext cost?

You only have to pay
if your project is successful.

This means:
You only receive the money
once your project has reached its goal.
Then Startnext deducts the costs.
This happens before the payout.

When you start a project,
you can choose from different packages.
Each package costs money.
And each package has different features.
This allows you to choose the package
that best suits your project.

The fees are fixed.
This means you know from the beginning
how much additional money you need to budget for.
This helps you to plan your funding amount better.

The costs for a crowdfunding project on Startnext are always indirectly covered by the supporters through their payments.

You will receive an invoice.
This will state how high the costs are.

There are no shareholders.
There are no investors.

No one receives money from the profits.
The profits remain with Startnext.
This allows the team to work for the benefit of everyone.
It's not about money for individuals.
It's about meaning and good ideas.
