WP Crowdfunding Pro

WP Crowdfunding Pro is the paid version of a WooCommerce-based WordPress extension for creating and managing crowdfunding sites. Project creators submit campaigns through a frontend form, while administrators configure campaign options and payment methods in the WordPress dashboard.

Campaign terms and backer visibility

A campaign submission can include a featured picture, video, start and end dates, minimum and maximum prices, a recommended price, and a funding goal. Choose an end condition based on reaching the goal, reaching a target date, meeting both conditions, or leaving the campaign open without an end date.

The paid version works with unlimited rewards with estimated delivery dates. Creators can publish project updates, and campaign pages can show backers or display their names anonymously.

Fund handling and campaign oversight

The Native Wallet System tracks, calculates, entries, and distributes funds. It is described as an alternative to Stripe Connect, which is also included as a paid capability for administrators to configure.

Administrators can review campaign information in analytical reports. Email notifications communicate campaign activity, Google reCAPTCHA is included, and social sharing tools let users share campaign information.

Creator and backer dashboards

The frontend visitor dashboard lets people update profile and contact information, review their projects and backed projects, check received pledges, visit bookmarked projects, and change their account password.

Campaign pages and shortcodes

Shortcodes can add campaign listings, category-specific listings, submission forms, search, registration, user dashboards, single campaigns, campaign boxes, popular campaigns, and donation capabilities to WordPress pages.

Package and setup

The paid package includes a dedicated theme, one year of add-on updates, and one year of support. WP Crowdfunding can also be used with an existing WordPress theme.

Install and activate the plugin on a WordPress site that uses WooCommerce. Configure it in the WordPress dashboard, add the relevant shortcodes to your pages, then set payment methods and campaign options before publishing projects.
