Keep $9,180 on $10,000 — Indiegogo (100 pledges)

Planning math for an Indiegogo campaign. Official: platform 5% plus processing 3% + $0.20 per transaction (not Stripe 2.9%+$0.30). Default first paint is the official example: $10,000 / 100 txns → platform $500 + processing $320 → KEEP $9,180. Formula: KEEP = C − 0.05C − Σ(0.03×pledge_i + 0.20). Goal miss = $0 including processing. New campaigns are Fixed Funding only. Absorb both fees. Pledge manager uses the same cuts. Dropped pledges and tax buffer are you-type, default $0. Not affiliated. Planning only.

Official example. Funded. Processing is 3%+$0.20/txn, not Stripe.

Campaign C = $10,000 · txns n = 100

Processing = 0.03 × 10,000 + 0.20 × 100 = $320.00
Dropped $0 · tax $0
KEEP = 10,000 − 500 − 320 = $9,180.00
