Why are you collecting shipping after the campaign?

This allows us to appropriately price shipping in a way (and at a time) that doesn’t expose our small independent studio to unknown risks.

My region is not covered under the "friendly" shipping areas, will I have to pay customs/VAT/additional taxes?

Possibly. We are shipping to the listed regions with duties paid. All other regions are subject to any regional import fees or taxes as they may apply locally.

The shipping section says you aren't shipping to my region, can you please add my region?

Unfortunately we cannot, however, we encourage you to contact your local retailer and make plans with them to place a retail order if possible.

Will Oath be printed in any languages other than English for the first printing?

Not for the first printing. As a general rule we implement localization efforts with the second printing of our products. There are a number of internal and external resources required for the more than 13 languages our games are printed in and we’ve found this is the most efficient process for the studio and it’s partners.

I'm a retailer, can I pledge?

Yes, please email [email protected] to make your order. You do not need to back the campaign but if you’d like to be emailed the updates, backing for any amount will accomplish that. (They are public and do not require that you back to view them, we do not publish “backer only” updates).

Why aren't there any Stretch Goals?

Leder Games aims to present you with the full product offering on the first day of our campaigns. As a general ethos, we want to give our kickstarter backers a substantial value without attempting to capitalize on the fear of missing out or gimmicks.

Can I back for multiple copies of Oath?

Yes, however, shipping will be charged based on total weight. Currently the estimates you see are for ONE copy of Oath, multiple copies will increase shipping costs accordingly.

Can I pledge for $1 to get access to the Backerkit to buy Oath later?

Yes, however, the pre-order price in backerkit will be slightly higher (approximately $10-20) than the kickstarter pledge price.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
