Kickstarter Creator Program
Special Pricing & Support for Crowdfunding Creators
Running a crowdfunding campaign is hard. Production should not be the part that keeps you up at night. Our Kickstarter Creator Program gives you concrete benefits designed to reduce your costs, simplify your workflow, and help your backers receive a product they are proud to own.
The program applies to campaigns on Kickstarter, Indiegogo, Gamefound, BackerKit, and any other crowdfunding platform.
What You Get
Exclusive 3% Production Discount
Place our logo on your campaign page and link it to our website. Once your campaign is funded and you place your production order, we apply a 3% discount to the total production cost (excluding shipping). The discount applies to your entire order, whether it includes books, card decks, packaging, board game components, or any combination.
Free Production Videos and Photos
We know that Kickstarter backers love seeing their rewards being made. If you would like production content for your campaign updates, just let us know. During production, we will take photos and record video of your products on the press, at the finishing stations, and during packing. You can use this content in your campaign updates, social media posts, and backer communications at no additional cost.
Free File Check
Before production begins, our prepress team manually reviews every file you submit. We check page dimensions, bleeds, margins, resolution, color mode, and overall print readiness. If something needs adjustment, we tell you exactly what to fix and how. There is no charge for this service.
Free Storage for Up to 3 Months
Not ready to ship everything at once? We will store your finished products in our warehouse for up to 3 months at no cost. This gives you time to coordinate with your fulfillment partner, manage late pledges, or wait for additional items to be completed. If you need storage beyond 3 months, extended warehousing is available at a nominal fee.
No Rush Fees
If your campaign timeline is tight and you need production to move faster, we will do our best to accommodate your schedule. We do not charge rush fees or expedite surcharges. Just let us know your deadline when you place the order, and we will work with you to meet it.
Pre-Production Samples
We can produce physical samples of your product before mass production begins: sample books, card decks, box mockups with inserts, or any other component. Please note that samples are produced on digital printing equipment, while mass production uses offset presses. There may be slight color differences between the two processes, which is normal across the industry. Samples are produced at cost (materials and labor), and shipping is charged at the actual courier rate. Many creators use these samples for campaign photography, reviewer copies, and convention displays.
How It Works
Use our online calculator or email us at [email protected] with your project details. We respond to new inquiries within 24 hours.
Place the QinPrinting logo on your Kickstarter page with a link to our website. This activates your 3% discount.
During the campaign, we can produce samples and provide production estimates for stretch goals and add-ons.
Once your campaign is funded, confirm your quantities, send final files, and your dedicated account manager will guide you through the rest.
We produce everything, pack by pledge tier, and ship to your fulfillment partner or directly to backers. We send you production photos and videos along the way.

What Our Clients Say
We have had a fantastic experience in dealing with QinPrinting.
The quality of the catalogues is far superior than that printed locally and the pricing was a lot more attractive.
Daniel was responsive, patient, and incredibly helpful throughout the process. He answered my questions, guided me through the technical details, and made sure everything was correct before printing.
The final product exceeded my expectations. The print quality is beautiful, the colors are vibrant, and the cards and rigid box feel truly premium. As a first-time deck creator, I appreciated the attention to detail and support every step of the way.
An added bonus, my shipment came in two weeks earlier than expected.
I am extremely happy with the result and would gladly work with QinPrinting again. Highly recommended.
Tarot of the Blue Rose.
I also sincerely appreciate your patience and willingness to accommodate my detailed review requests, guiding me until I was completely satisfied. Since this was my very first time submitting design data, there were challenging moments where my knowledge fell short, but it all turned out to be a wonderful learning experience.
Big thanks to my main contact, the designers, and the entire factory team for your amazing support. I look forward to working with you all again for the upcoming English version!
I quickly sent enquiries to printers in Singapore and Malaysia. I went down to local printing shops over the weekend. Some told me to just staple my books, while some took weeks to reply, and most did not even give a quotation based on what I enquired.
I was disheartened and seriously considering just publishing ebooks and giving up my paperback dream. As a last leap of faith, I filled in Qin Printing's quotation form on a Saturday evening. A few hours later, I received a reply from Ms Mia Wang.
Mia is one of the most professional and meticulous people I have worked with. She answered every single one of the questions I posed, anticipated others before I even asked, and her promptness was amazing. As a client, it is great when queries get answered even on a Sunday. But as a older woman to a younger lady, I really hope she gets the rest she needs.
The books came very well packed, beautifully printed and right before my nearly impossible deadline because the team was so efficient and I could tell they kept my timeline in mind.
I just sold my first order of my paperbacks today when the request for review come into my inbox. What apt timing. 🙂
Thank you Mia and the hardworking and dedicated team at Qin. I am hoping I will get to print my second and further orders with you.
Keep up the wonderful work! But please, take care and rest well too!
