Your profile, your projects, your crowd ...

On Startnext, you can present any type of crowdfunding project (except crowd investing) through a single profile.
This gives you maximum flexibility and opens up countless opportunities to finance your initiative – whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, private individual, or influencer with a purpose that benefits the greater good.
Startnext provides the structure, reach, and trust of the crowd to help you bring your idea to life.

Fundraising / Donation-Based Project

Your project is recognized as charitable or non-profit? Then launch a donation campaign with virtual rewards.

Examples: Emergency aid, education, environmental protection, community development …

Classic Crowdfunding with Rewards

You’ve developed a product, service, or creative work and want to fund your project together with your fans or customers.

Examples: Album, book, film, theatre production, gadget, game, social business, community-supported agriculture (CSA) …

Private Crowdfunding

You’re financing a personal project with the support of friends, family, and people who simply want to help you.

Examples: Medical expenses, education, legal fees, hobby projects …

Read Our Phishing Notice – How to Protect Yourself and Your Project!

Before you get started, we want to draw your attention to an important topic: phishing and internet fraud. Please note that Startnext only sends emails from the domain startnext.com – never from external providers like Gmail or others. Furthermore, we never send emails with loan offers or paid services. Occasionally, third parties use information from your legal notice (Impressum) or your Startnext project wall to make dubious offers. These should be ignored and rejected. Unfortunately, the Startnext team cannot completely prevent such phishing attempts, so we ask you to stay alert and protect yourself and your team.
