Reviews of Funded Today
From Kickstarter & Indiegogo Creators
Kodiak Weekender Duffle: Raised $252,311
“These guys are awesome!! We launched a Kickstarter campaign in March of 2017. They helped us raise over $107,000 and we ended up 2145% funded. They under promised and over delivered, and adapted to our project throughout the campaign. They gave me great suggestions on what I could do to improve the campaign and maximize pledges. I would highly recommend them for your crowdfunding project!”
“After I launched Tenikle, I ended up going with Funded Today. It felt like throwing $3k on black with the upfront cost, but I’m really glad I did because the payoff was worth it. You get what you pay for. When talking return on investment, $3k brought me in almost $80k (so far) minus what they take in the end. I think this model works great because they’re incentivized to do as best as possible. I’m a lone-wolf creator and don’t have a team to help me with running ads, so getting someone on board was important to me. If you know what you’re doing, then do it yourself. If your project is good, it will be easily marketed and you’ll do great with them. If it’s not in your budget and your project is iffy, work on getting it dialed before working with any outside marketer. My 2 cents. Hope it helps.”
“We’ve had a great experience working with Funded Today. Funded Today is the best crowdfunding marketing agency out there. The best… Period. Funded Today reached out to us in August 2015, when we were in the middle of our Kickstarter campaign. We were already at $4 million then and our campaign was slowing down and was at the verge of dying. Our Kickstarter campaign had gone viral initially which led us to raise $3 million in the first 3 weeks and then it got saturated and started to slow down. To cross the $4 million mark it took us to another 2 weeks. Then, we got Funded Today onboard in the 6th week and they reached out to a completely different audience and got another huge wave of traffic our way which helps us add another $4.5 million to our total in the last 3 weeks and our campaign closed at $9.19mn. Our total campaign duration was 8 weeks. Funded Today has got access to thousands of crowdfunding campaigns and they’ve built a community of early adopters out of it. They were able to get our campaign in front of the right audience who are mavens, early adopters of technology and innovative products. We couldn’t have done that using only facebook ads.”
“3000+ backers pledged $1.37 Million to Cubiio, my first campaign. We could not have achieved it without the help from FUNDED TODAY. They are nice, energetic, aggressive, professional, hard workers. I will hire FUNDED TODAY to promote my next campaign again. It is reasonable to choose a good marketing partner if you aim to Million.”
“WOW!!! That is AMAZING! Thank you so much for going the extra mile when Funded Today really didn’t have to. We appreciate it so much!”
“We heard from a friend that had done a Kickstarter campaign with Funded Today that Funded Today did some pretty incredible work and, so, we got some more information. We were a little bit hesitant at first to work with them just because of the percent that they take, but we raised just over $250,000, which completely blew away our expectations. We are thrilled with the work that they did and haven’t regretted it once.”
“This is our second time working with Funded Today and we must say that, in both projects that we’ve worked together, it’s been great! The team is really knowledgeable and full of ideas, from keeping us up-to-date on a day-to-day basis on their trial/testing stages to reminding us to get updates ready weekly to engage with our backers. We’ve seen firsthand their scaling ads with great results—the digital marketing team focuses on audiences that matter, that actually can return a result—so, we were really impressed with that. In some instances, that doubled our average pledges in the course of 14 days, almost doubling our total pledged amount. We’ll definitely partner up with them again.”
JOEY Backpack: Raised $233,656
“We brought Funded Today on about 10 before the end. We really liked that they made contact immediately and got all of our materials. They used those marketing materials for their own campaign. Their communication was open and honest and they were reached easily. They raised a little under $35,000 in roughly 9 days, which spiked the end of our campaign and spiked our campaign and influenced the algorithms on Kickstarter. They really helped our campaign. Funded Today charged a percentage of the profits and while daunting at first, it’s definitely worth out and turned out to be our best decision towards the end of our Kickstarter campaign. The results Funded Today achieved could not be done by anyone else.”
“We launched on Kickstarter with the help of Funded Today. They have amazing marketing skills and I recommend them to anybody getting into crowdfunding.”
Merino Tech 2.0: Raised CA$ 156,609
“We worked with Funded Today for just one week and it was a really amazing one week! They helped us more than double our pledges in just one week! We really appreciated their work. And we look forward to another cooperation with Funded Today for our next campaign.”

FUNDED TODAY IS AMAZING!”
“We used FundedToday for our very successful ‘LitraTorch’ campaign on Kickstarter and Indiegogo InDemand. FundedToday helped us dial in our marketing message and drive sales over 600% of our funding target. We highly recommend partnering with FundedToday.”
“So, Funded Today overall gained us a lot more exposure and really helped us out after we were plateauing at about day 13. We signed with them with about 20 days to go, and they took our campaign from $20,000 to $60,000 in that time-frame. So, that was really exciting to see and really appreciated.”
“I just wanted to take this opportunity to give a shout-out to Funded Today for all the help they provided in order to make our campaign successful. These guys definitely are experts in what they do and have a complete array of tested methods and strategies that they implement and double down on what works best for the brands to give the best ROI. Thanks guys!”
”Period of Comfort” Panties: Raised $109,348
“We worked with Funded Today for our campaign. We raised over $100,000 thanks to them. They are very simple and very easy to work with and they’re very professional. I hope to work with them on our next campaigns.”
Pocket Tripod: Raised $178,649
“Don’t waste your marketing budget with anybody else; Funded Today is the best at what they do. They helped me raise over $278,000 on Kickstarter and Indiegogo (goal was $6,000). They have crowdfunding down to a science. But the one thing that stands out for me the most is that Funded Today a team of genuinely good people. They’re honest, and they’re on your side, which is rare these days. I highly recommend them!”
“We had a successful campaign last summer and we partnered with Funded Today about halfway through the campaign. We found Funded Today to be very professional and very experienced in Kickstarter marketing. They helped us generate some very good insights into who our key audiences are. Would I consider working with them again? Yes! The communication was very good. They were flexible in finding a way for us to work together. They were able to drive traffic to our page and generate quite a few sales. Thank you Funded Today.”
“I have just launched the Saxmonica on kickstarter with a certain amount of apprehension prior to the start. Early on in this project I spent a lot of time reading up on crowd funding and the services offered to assist with getting pledges. I looked at a lot of bad reviews but there was a consistent thread that indicated Funded Today were several steps above the others. The review that finally did it was the one that said Funded Today was the heavy weight of the industry. That sealed it for me so once I contacted them they responded on time every time with a full professional attitude and as a result the opening week of my campaign had completely blown away my initial goals. As a lone dreamer inventor with a very limited social network I realised that I did not have the means to really push this on kickstarter so I made the decision to get the professionals in. Marketing is a skill that requires dedication and commitment and I felt I was a much better inventor than marketer. Absolutely critical to me is developing a procedure that dosnt waste my time and likewise I don’t waste other people’s time. So I am always looking for people that respond on time, don’t exaggerate claims and lay down a smooth path to follow. Funded Today has in my mind excelled in all the areas that are critical to me. I have several further products and would have no hesitation to engage them again for further crowd funding projects.”
“You guys are nice. We’ve worked with other FB Ad specialists who all had horror stories to tell about you guys. But we found working with FT very professional. Our business and yours spoke the common language of being data driven.”
“I used Funded Today for the marketing services and, yeah, I got a good result with them. The best thing was the cross-promotions worked really really really well and also I thought the communication was great. We used Skype and it was just easy to talk with everyone and so everyone responded pretty quickly. So, yeah, I had a good experience using Funded Today and I’d use them again for another crowdfunding project.”
“Before we signed up with them, I read some reviews of them. I was scared, of course, by some of the bad reviews—but, again, I was like… There will always be bad reviews of services and maybe partcularly of crowdfunding services because it’s not only about how these guys are working and how good they are—it’s also about the kind of project that they’re working with. So, what I did was that I took randomly some of the bad reviews, I researched a bit to find out what kind of project those creators had made and what kind of product they have, and I just found that most of these bad reviews were based on products that I didn’t really believe in, myself—so, maybe it wasn’t that much about how Funded Today was working, but more about the project that wasn’t super super for Kickstarter or crowdfunding, anyway. So, that gave me some comfort and, with the communication with the team, I felt relatively safe that we should go into it. We have been working with them for four days now. We have six days left, so it’s a relatively short period that we are working with them. What we have seen is that they have spent a lot of time analyzing until now—not a lot of results. But, yesterday, things started to explode, and we see the same trend today. So, for us, their method seems super-solid. They have tons of different levels that they’re working with—PR, Cashback systems, all these kind of things. And, of course, the ads. For us, it’s working—it’s super-nice. I recommend it.”
“We had a pleasant experience with Funded Today. The benefits of working with them were amazing, and we are very glad to have taken this decision. First of all, they were very good and quick in reaching the right audience for Percko, which was crucial for the successful of the marketing campaign. The first impression of the percentage they take it’s probably not the best, but after all it’s worth due to the incredible amount of new backers they bring you. Our page had visitors all the time from locations we could not have reached alone. Funded Today was able to raise incredible 50.000 euros for us in 18 days! Also, when making the agreements Curtis was very flexible and attentious with us, simplifying things and turning into a deal where both parties would benefit. Funded Today have a very good experience with crowdfunding campaigns and a large portfolio of very successful campaigns.”
Roost Laptop Stands: Raised $785,724
“Funded Today came onboard after $200,000 and was part of raising an additional $500,000 to reach out final goal of $780,000. They were very communicative and they absolutely were in line with my needs as a creator. Funded Today were extremely good at what they did and they were receptive to strategy ideas I had. They did really well in all aspects. Two thumbs up from me and the Roost Stand.”
Ultimate Belts: Raised $180,326
“This is the 2nd time we’ve teamed up with the folks at FUNDED TODAY to boost our Kickstarter campaign and we can say without hesitation ”The are awesome!” In both instances FT gave our projects a BIG push upward, adding thousands of backers and a lot more sales. Without their efforts we would have had only mediocre success on KS, not the over the top record-breaking success they provided. They are real pros at what they do and cover all the bases. Moving ahead, we look forward to working together again—for a 3rd time!”
“I reached out to Funded Today for help with my campaign and Jordan David has been awesome in redesigning my campaign. He provided great insights into how to improve my Kickstarter campaign page for better conversions. Very friendly and helpful and the changes are making a great difference. This was all before hiring FT for their services! I highly recommend getting in touch with FT if you are struggling with getting pledges on your campaign.”
“We started talking to Funded Today about midway through the project and out rate of growth was plateauing. We had raised about 117% of our goal then Funded Today managed the second half of the campaign and managed to raise 660% which is a huge, huge growth. Really enjoyed working with them. Their communication was great. They went out of their way to talk to us at the hours that were convenient for us. Which was hugely helpful. I would definitely recommend anybody to work with Funded Today on their campaign.”
