How Backr Works

Complete guide to our decentralized fundraising platform built on Solana blockchain

What is Backr?

Backr is a decentralized fundraising platform built on the Solana blockchain that connects innovative creators with supporters worldwide. Unlike traditional crowdfunding platforms, Backr leverages blockchain technology to provide transparency, security, and lightning-fast transactions.

Our platform enables creators to launch fundraising campaigns for their projects while supporters can contribute using SOL (Solana's native cryptocurrency) with minimal fees and instant settlement.

Key Benefits: 0.25% platform fee • Instant settlements • Direct wallet transfers • Complete transparency

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need cryptocurrency experience to use Backr?
Not at all! While Backr uses Solana blockchain, our interface is designed to be user-friendly. You just need a Solana wallet (like Phantom) which takes 2 minutes to set up.
What happens if my campaign doesn't reach its goal?
You keep all funds raised regardless of whether you reach your goal. Funds are transferred immediately with each donation, so you can start working on your project right away.
How do I convert SOL to regular currency?
You can convert SOL to USD, EUR, or other currencies through cryptocurrency exchanges like Coinbase, Binance, or FTX. The process typically takes 1-3 business days.
Is there any protection against fraud?
While blockchain transactions are irreversible, we encourage thorough research. Look for detailed descriptions, creator profiles, and social media presence. Blockchain transparency means all transactions are publicly auditable.
