?

 

Are you having thoughts like the ones above while preparing for your Wadiz crowdfunding campaign?

I imagine most of you reading this have already prepared the products (rewards) you plan to offer.
For our aspiring makers who may feel overwhelmed and daunted by the prospect of launching on Wadiz —with all the required documents, product pages (stories), and marketing—
I’ll briefly guide youon what to prepare next.
For those who read to the end, I’ve also attached the official Wadiz guideat the very bottom. 😉

 


What is Wadiz crowdfunding? What is a pre-order?

First, let’s take a quick look at Wadiz!

Wadiz FundingWadiz Funding is a form of crowdfunding where you introduce a new product or service that has never existed before, receive funding (investment) from people (backers), and then provide the product (or service) to those backers.

** Crowdfunding [Crowd (public) + Funding (raising funds)]
: A method in which individuals or organizations in need of funds raise money from the general public through an online intermediary platform over a set period of time

Q. “Can I only launch a campaign on Wadiz for products or services that are completely new to the market?”

A. No!

Wadiz is currently accepting pre-orders and Store.

Funding : When introducing a new product or service

Pre-order

  • Exclusive to Korea : When an overseas product is introduced exclusively in Korea on Wadiz
  • Special Offer : Product bundles or price discounts available exclusively on Wadiz
  • Limited Edition : Products or services that will not be produced again in the future and are exclusively available on Wadiz

Store : Cases where, following a funding campaign or pre-order, the product is listed on the Wadiz Store for ongoing sales

The Wadiz Funding Process: From A to Z

See what processes lie ahead after your product is ready—all in one image!
It takes anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks to as long as over a month until the project goes live.

Wadiz Funding: Pre-order Process

Wadiz Funding / Pre-order Project Process

  • Creating a Project : After signing up for Wadiz, create a [Maker Studio] to enter product details, create a product page, and manage settlement information.
  • Creating and Submitting a Project : Submit the required documents for the project, register the project details (story), and click [Submit] on Wadiz.
  • Wadiz Review and Incorporating Feedback : The review team will verify that all required documents are submitted and that the story (product details page) includes all necessary information. If you receive feedback, please review it and make the necessary changes.
  • Project Launch : After final approval, the maker selects the launch date.
    • Upcoming Launch: This is a summary page designed to promote the project before its official launch, similar to a movie trailer. During this period, you can sign up for notifications to secure fans (prospective supporters/buyers) in advance.
    • Project Launch: Once the pre-launch period ends, funding and purchases will begin.
  • Project End ~ Payment ~ Shipping ~ Settlement : The project ends at midnight on the scheduled date, and payments are processed for two days following the end of the project. We ship to those who have successfully paid, and you will receive settlement for the amount paid minus Wadiz’s commission. (Settlement is processed in two installments.)
