I'd love a crowd fund option so that i can have people put money towards an item rather than paying for all of it, then once the goal is reached then the Throne user has to use that money for the item and select everything they wanted in the list.

I hit complete on accident and now I’m scared it won’t ship the item

Merged with: Item pooling
Someone in my Twitch stream had mentioned that they wish Throne allowed people to pitch in towards a particular item if they can't afford/justify buying it outright.
I honestly believe this would greatly increase the overall amount of gifts being bought and makes it a more communal/group effort which can be fun for some.
If this functionality were added, perhaps add an auto-refund feature to people that have pitched in on an item if it hasn't been completely funded after a couple weeks.

As I am working on my wedding registry on Amazon, I see they have a great feature for the more expensive items called Group Gifting. People can contribute money towards one of the pricier gifts you have and once that goal is met, the item gets purchased. This would be a super awesome feature that could get added and if the creator changes their mind on the item, the money can just go towards their throne balance and they can get something else instead.
A feature my community has mentioned quite a few times, is the ability to all go in on a more expensive item from the wishlist... I'd love for my community to be able to all chip in together to hit goals!

For larger items, to allow for multiple people to contribute an amount to pool towards the total (either with a minimum percentage or amount remaining); the item would then purchase/ship once the total was matched.

This has already been suggested and added to the roadmap: throne-gifts.upvoty.com/b/feature-requests/crowd-fund/
I just found this board to post exactly this.
I would love to see this so much.

Merged with: Pay Towards Feature

If there is a way to do it, maybe have the option for someone to put money towards big-ticket items. So for example, if I have something that is worth $150 on my wishlist, maybe have a way to "pay towards" the item and they can choose how much they wanna put towards it, and then when the item has been "fully funded" it will then ship with the names of everyone that contributed towards it.

I just saw that this was listed as a planned feature in another feature request: throne-gifts.upvoty.com/b/feature-requests/crowd-fund/
Allow users to contribute less than the full purchase price to a particular item so that multiple users to contribute to a single larger purchase. The streamer would then be able to redeem the purchase at their leisure, such as when a price tracker like Camelcamelcamel indicates it's a good time to buy. The remainder, if any, could be issued in the form of a gift certificate. Some items are too big for most folks to buy outright, and this would allow for pooling of funds.

I have fans that want to pay for my rent, bills, and other things such as moving costs. Is there a way to create an option that would send funds directly to creators for intangible items like these, as well as add an option for crowd funding for items like these? For example: someone can't stream because they have been sick, or they need help paying medical or vet bills... Someone's computer was stolen and they don't just need a computer but they need cash to help pay for bills they missed while not able to work etc... Similar to gofundme but with throne... That way it's all streamlined all giving through one platform.
What about crowd funding for a bigger money goal or purchase that you can't add to throne such as a down payment for a house or credit card debt etc...? Let's say, Having a goal of $1,000 for rent and many fans can participate in funding that and have the money sent via cashapp or direct deposit etc. It would be nice to have that option integrated with throne as giving / loyal fans tend to come here as opposed to going to a go fund me and so on.

Streaming communities can add tips to a pool of money for a particular gift and achieve purchasing the gift together. A gift page could even be created which displays all the folks who contributed to sending this item. This feature could also be extended to add-ons like wrapping paper, cards, etc. This ensures that more expensive items are more financially feasible for folks who wish to gift.

Merged with: Allow people to gift a percentage of expensive items.
For expensive items, allow user to donate a portion set by the user. For example, on an item worth 500.00 I could allow fans to gift 25% towards the item.
What if the crowd fund goal is never completed? Will the money be refunded?

I got this asked for yesterday as well! Especially with bigger gifts it could be nice if viewers could all pay a share of the gift and buy something bigger together!
