Hungarian Website Launches Crowd Funding Platform

English

The site seeks to get funding from the public for creative projects, be they a recording of a debut album, a civil initiative or the development of a novelty product.
 
Based on the ?crowd funding? model employed by such American websites as www.indiegogo.com and www.kickstarter.com, www.creativeselector.hu collects donations from ?patrons? who get certain rewards in exchange.
 
The site, whose partner is CIB Bank, ensures all transactions are secure, fast and cheap.
 
At present, creative and innovative Hungarians are seeking support for four projects on the site, among them publishing a book on soap-making, bringing a chair designed for women to market and producing a headset that is also a stress reliever.
