Kickstarter is now supporting creators with a new tool called the Pledge Manager, designed to help manage backers after a successful campaign—without requiring them to leave the platform.

The newly launched Pledge Manager offers a range of features aimed at simplifying post-campaign tasks. One notable addition—likely influenced by the new U.S. president—is the Tariff Manager, which helps users navigate increasingly volatile international tariffs.

For U.S. backers in particular, this tool facilitates the fair and transparent application of additional tariffs. Other features are more pragmatic: shipping tools to set up and manage logistics, survey tools, and systems for calculating and integrating VAT not only in the U.S. but also in the EU and the UK.

According to Kickstarter, the Pledge Manager is now available to all creators. The toolbox was developed in close collaboration with the creator community, and this is just the beginning—Kickstarter says it plans to develop and release further tools to better meet creators’ evolving needs.
