Campaigns

if you have an EPUB file ready to sell, you should use a "Buy to Unglue" campaign. Otherwise, you'll want to offer rewards in a "Pledge" campaign.

Rewards for Pledge Campaigns

Campaigns can have rewards as a way to motivate and thank supporters. You are strongly encouraged to add rewards - they are given special prominence on the campaign page.

What should you add as rewards? Anything (legal) that you think you can reasonably deliver that will get supporters excited about the book. For example: other books, whether electronic or physical; artwork or multimedia relating to the book, its author, or its themes; in-person or online chats with the author; memorabilia.

Acknowledgements for Pledge Campaigns

Here are the standard acknowledgements. These automatically combine with your rewards. For example, if you offer a $30 reward, ungluers who pledge $30 will receive the $25 acknowledgement as well.
