How to use Polls

Creators can use Polls to ask their backers campaign-related questions, which fosters a sense of community and involvement, making backers feel valued and connected to the project's development.

By seeking their opinions on aspects like product features, design choices, or stretch goals, creators can tailor their offerings to match backers' preferences. In fact, polls have consistently shown they boost backer engagement in campaigns more than anything else.

Let Your Community Know

Backers are not automatically notified of an new poll. To get your community to vote, we recommend you:

1. Publish an update about the poll by selecting the poll that you created. The poll must be published in order to embed it into an update.
2. Send a Launch email to those in your community who have not yet backed your project inviting them to engage with the poll.
