Crowdfunding Platforms

Here are updates from the crowdfunding platforms:

  • Kickstarter: Navigating Tariffs and Shipping Costs: Tips for Kickstarter Creators (link)
    • Kickstarter shares tips & resources for navigating tariffs.
  • BackerKit: Tariff Survey (link)
    • BackerKit asking for survey responses to build new tools around tariffs for creators
  • Gamefound: US Tariffs – New Tools in Progress (link)
    • Gamefound proposing new tools that they may build to help with tariffs. I find the comment section very interesting to get different backer and creator perspectives.

 

Tabletop Games

  • Jamey Stegmaier: The Math of Tariffs (link)
    • Jamey breaks down how he views the math of tariffs affecting tabletop games.


Print (TTRPGs, Graphic Novels, Manga, & Comics)

  • Comic Book Legal Defense Fund: Why Trump’s Tariffs Should Not Apply to Graphic Novels, Manga, and Comics: The Book Ban Connection (pt. 2) (link)
    • This is not legal advice, but the author makes a compelling argument as to why print products should be excluded from the current tariffs.
