===Crowdfunding platform business models===
*'''Commissions on funds raised:'''
::This is by far the most common of all in the crowdfunding space. It's easy to understand for fund raisers and is also risk-free for them. In fact it's risk-free because you're the one bearing the risk, as you need to pay for software and support without the certainty of earning anything back. In addition, commissions require high volumes to make any good amount of money. Whether it is a crowdfunding or crowdinvesting platform, both have commission-based business models where they take a percentage of the profits (typically [http://www.lumosforbusiness.com/blog/792  4 – 7.5%]) from every successfully funded campaign on their platform.

*'''Listing fees:'''
::This one is more common on equity crowdfunding platforms, simply because the structure of the investment doesn't allow for commissions. They can be one-off or monthly. Their advantage is that you're guaranteed to earn these fees whatever happens. On the flip side, you won't benefit from a project's potential success.

*'''Transaction fees:'''
::This is a middle-ground between commissions and listing fees. Every time someone makes an investment or a donation, you can add a non-refundable, fixed or variable transaction fee, paying for using the service. It's a little less popular but can prove effective in building sustainable revenues.

*'''Additional services:'''
::Most fundraisers will need videos, pictures and marketing. Some will also need more specific services like order management and fulfillment. By offering such added-value services you can make your users' lives much easier and earn more money.
