Key Features

đŸŽ¯

Milestone-Based Funding

Creators set clear milestones. Funds release incrementally as each is verified and delivered.

🔒

XRPL Escrow

Funds held by the ledger, not a company. Trustless, transparent, and cryptographically secure.

↩ī¸

Auto-Refund Protection

If milestone deadlines pass without delivery, funds automatically return to backers via time-locked escrow.

💰

Multi-Token Pledges

Back projects in RLUSD, USDC, USDT, or XRP. Maximum flexibility for global backers.

🌍

Global Access

No geographic restrictions. Anyone with an XRPL wallet can participate from anywhere in the world.

Transparent Tracking

Every pledge, release, and refund is on-ledger. Backers verify progress in real-time.

How It Works

1

Creator Launches Campaign

Set funding goal, milestones with deadlines, and deliverables. Define what success looks like for each stage.

2

Backers Pledge Funds

Support projects with RLUSD, USDC, USDT, or XRP. Funds go directly into XRPL escrow with time-locks.

3

Creator Delivers Milestones

Submit evidence of milestone completion. Community verifies and votes on delivery.

4

Funds Release Incrementally

Upon verification, escrowed funds release to creator. Remaining funds stay protected until next milestone.

5

Auto-Refund If Needed

If deadlines pass without delivery, time-locked escrows automatically return funds to backers. No disputes, no delays.
