Hi guys,

I'm part of a team looking into a project we'd like to launch on Kickstarter and we are keen to use the Buy One Give One(B1G1) model for the business. It is a for-profit business (much like TOMS), but the B1G1 is a huge part of the story.

I am really struggling to figure out if this is eligible or if Kickstarter will view it as a charity. I've found a few campaigns that used it;

1) https://www.google.ie/?gws_rd=ssl#q=buy ... e+kickster
2) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/67 ... -buy-one-g
3) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/an ... e-give-one

Only the first one (Passion Planner) would have received large-scale exposure. What do you guys think? Would B1G1 fit within their terms or could it be viewed as a charitable donation?

*EDIT
A 4th campaign that was hugely successful: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wa ... or=2643880
