This works for some startups, but not all.
More importantly, WHO those five are is very important. I could get five best friends to give me five dollars. That's meaningless in evaluating your idea.
Thats why they're offering to do it via WEB. If you go and ask your friends to go and pay via the site - that doesn't make much sense does it?
How many times have you built something cool/had a cool idea that you show your friends? Everytime.
I still think this is a good product, I'm just pointing out the importance of WHO/HOW to get meaningful people to pay.
This + adwords targeted at your target demo will be a smart way to test
