About Indiegogo
Indiegogo is a crowdfunding platform based in San Francisco, California, and it is one of the crowdfunding platforms in California in this directory. The company was founded in 2008 by Danae Ringelmann, Slava Rubin, and Eric Schell, and it was one of the first sites to offer crowdfunding. Users can seek funding for ideas, charitable causes, or startup businesses. The platform is built mainly on a rewards model, in which people who back a project receive a gift rather than an equity stake in the company. After Securities and Exchange Commission rule changes in 2016, Indiegogo partnered with MicroVentures to offer equity-based campaigns beginning in November 2016, which allowed investors who are not accredited to hold equity stakes. Credit card contributions on the site are processed through Stripe payment processing. Indiegogo is also included among the wider group of US crowdfunding platforms.
