I'm a freelancer / agency. Do all of my clients need licenses?

As long as you’re the one maintaining the project for your client, your own license covers them. But as soon as you pass off the work to a client and they are maintaining it, they would need their own license.

(That’s also why we put together the $150 license 10 pack. You pay $15 per client site you’re handing off and can pass the cost along however you see fit.)

Kickstarter doesn't take Paypal! What do I do?

Drop us a message and we’ll take care of you. It’s important you do this so we make sure to give you the super-low Kickstarter prices!

What's the difference between "Font Awesome Pro (Early Backer) - $20" and "Font Awesome Pro - $40" rewards?

$20. That’s it. Because we extended early rewards for the entire campaign, just $20 is all you need to get Font Awesome Pro AND all of the stretch goals.

For folks who back us at the $40 non-early reward for FA Pro, we’ll throw in an extra Personal / Small Business license. Use it or pass it along as you see fit!

Do I need a license for every project I want to use Font Awesome Pro in?

Nope. It’s an unlimited use license. Use it in your web apps, iOS and Android apps, in your presentations, in print, and just about anywhere as long as you’re not distributing.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
