Comment on Paypal and Crowdfunding: don’t do it

Comments

Everyone on HN should be crowdfunding with www.tilt.com (YC 12). Use Reward Code: HN10 and get $10 towards any tilt and 0 credit card processing fees.

It fills me with confidence when even a company has obviously never read its TOS and it's riddled with hilarious glitches like this:

"Tilt is not liable or responsible for:

1. Any Campaign not attaining a goal amount, no matter the reason. 1. In the event the Campaign Tilts, any refunds, including without limitation, for Contributions or Perks. 1. Any errors or omissions in the Destination Account.

2. The failure of the Payment Processor or Campaign Admin to pay Contributions to the Beneficiary. 1. Checks that are incorrectly processed, lost, or stolen.

3. Your Member Content."

That's a lot if firsts!

The article was regarding an Australian, and Tilt is US only.

Do you work for Tilt?

Either that or this is quite the coincidence: https://clarity.fm/kentf
