What Are the Best Types of Fundraising Campaigns for This?

Giveaways work for both rewards-based and donation crowdfunding. Click to learn which campaign types match your goals and audience.

Giveaways are especially effective for rewards-based crowdfunding (like Kickstarter or Indiegogo) and donation-based crowdfunding (like GoFundMe or nonprofit campaigns). Both benefit from added exposure and engagement.

For product launches, contests can highlight key features and drive preorders. For cause-driven efforts, they help spark community sharing and donor interest. Even smaller creator campaigns (e.g. comics or films) benefit from this boost.
