Raise funds for your project with trustless, refundable contributions
Ergo's assurance contracts enable trustless crowdfunding. Contributors know they'll get refunds if the goal isn't met - no trust in the project creator required.
Traditional crowdfunding platforms take fees, can censor projects, and require trusting the platform to handle refunds. Crypto crowdfunding often lacks refund guarantees.
Use Ergo's assurance contract pattern: contributions are locked in a smart contract that automatically refunds if the goal isn't reached by the deadline. Success means funds go to the project.
Set clear goals: funding target, deadline, and what contributors receive. Be realistic about what you can deliver.
