How you can pledge for Kickstarter campaigns without an International credit card
If you are one of those people who love being one of the first to get those trendy, revolutionary products in the market, you have definitely heard of Kickstarter. My startup — Bolt IoT just released the world’s first fully integrated IoT Platform on Kickstarter. When i say fully integrated, I mean Hardware, Cloud and a Smartphone App. You can check it out here — https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/boltiot/the-worlds-first-9-iot-platform
However, there are many of us young folks who may be still in college or for some other reason do not own an International credit card which is the only way to pledge and get that product you’ve been wanting to get your hands on.
But where there’s a will, there’s a way right?
I’m going to share with you here the Easiest way to get it done. Here’s what you do:
Entropay
- Visit the site www.entropay.com
Entropay is a service that lets you create a virtual credit card with a choice of International currencies like the Dollar and the Euro. It works like a credit card wallet where you can store a certain amount of money for credit purposes.
2. Click on the Get Started Button for registering your account which will prompt you for your personal details and the currency you wish to transact with as shown below:
3. Once you’ve logged in to the dashboard, you will be given an option to create your first Entropay card.
4. Write a Nickname for your card and click on create card, where you will then be able to add details of your debit card to transfer an amount to Entropay’s virtual credit card.
5. You can then choose the amount you wish to top up your virtual card.
6. You will now be redirected to the payment gateway to enter your debit card information. Once completed you will be able to see details such as Card Number, Card Name, Expiry date and CVV number which you will need to enter while pledging on kickstarter.
You can now go ahead and pledge for those incredible projects on Kickstarter. If you are a maker or developer and looking at working on Internet of Things, take a look at our Completely Integrated IoT platform ‘Bolt’ which is available here on Kickstarter for just $9. You can support us and help us reach our funding goal and ultimately get this one of a kind piece of technology into your hands.
