What is Crowdfunding?

by Jelyza Sheffield, The Cyrcle Phone Business Development Associate

Now that we’re weeks away from launching The Cyrcle Phone 4G LTE with Android 10, we have seen an influx of people inquiring about where, how, and for how much they can get it. The Cyrcle Phone will be available through our Kickstarter pre-sales campaign, well below its $999 retail price. Kickstarter is a crowdfunding platform, where creators can showcase their products and raise funds from interested members of the community, more commonly known as “backers.” Our previous Kickstarter campaign was for The Cyrcle Phone 2G where we successfully delivered all rewards (phones, classes, t-shirts, videos, etc.) to backers within 60 days, which was five months earlier than promised.

For our upcoming Kickstarter campaign, backers will receive The Cyrcle Phone 4G LTE with Android 10, a SIM card to be activated (for USA-based backers), and a USB Type-C cable. Backers can expect to receive their items within one year of the campaign end date. If we encounter any roadblocks along the way, we will surely communicate this promptly. If you would like to be notified when our campaign goes live, you can sign up for an email reminder here.

Over the years, dTOOR has built a long track record of backing over two dozen campaigns on Kickstarter. We particularly back other indie mobile phone campaigns, because it is truly what we adore. Whether you’re new or familiar to crowdfunding, we encourage you to consider The Cyrcle Phone for your next pledge so we can continue making “non-rectangular phones for non-rectangular people.”
