BackerKit surveys are coming!
over 8 years ago – Mon, Apr 04, 2016 at 10:08:52 PM

Hey Everyone!,

Today is the day, our BackerKit surveys are finished and will be sent to you shortly. 

We will send an email with a special link to your BackerKit survey soon. It is important to respond to your survey as quickly as you can since we need this information for fulfilling your rewards and getting your cables to you.

You do not need to create a BackerKit account to fill out your survey, just click on the survey link, fill it out, and you’re all good to go! You will be able to answer questions about your rewards preferences, provide shipping information, and pledge for more “add-ons” if you'd like. You do not have access to this survey link yet, but it will be available soon via email!

If you decide later that you want to edit your survey response, you can go back to your survey and change it any time before we lock down the surveys for processing.

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you will be able to recover your survey here: lux-cables-the-premium-charging-cable.backerkit.com .

If you use your Facebook login for your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey will be sent to the email you used for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you would prefer to use, please contact support at lux-cables-the-premium-charging-cable.backerkit.com/faq and we'll get you sorted out!

Add-On Cables

Additional cables are available at $24 CAD each including shipping. You will have the option to add these to your order in BackerKit.

Let us know if you have any questions or concerns about the project via message (or by email [email protected]). We'd love to hear your feedback or any suggestions you might have.

Again, thanks for all your support. We can’t wait to send you your Lux Cables.

Update on Surveys + Next Steps
over 8 years ago – Fri, Apr 01, 2016 at 05:40:45 PM

Happy Friday Everyone!,

Thanks again for making our project a reality! A few things need to happen before we can kick off production and fulfillment.

Here's a quick rundown:

First, Kickstarter needs to transfer over the funds so we have the money to make the rewards (this can take up to two weeks). We have waited most of this period and should receive our funds by Monday. 

Second, we have to find out what cable types you would like (Micro USB or Lightning) and where we need to ship them. We will send out a BackerKit survey to collect this information.

We will give you a heads-up before we send the survey so that you can watch for it. You will not need to create a BackerKit account to answer your survey. The invitation email will contain a link to your personal survey. It is important to submit your responses as quickly as you can since we need this information to process your rewards.

If you need to change your survey responses, add or remove add-ons, or update your shipping information, you can click on the link in your survey email again or request your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page. (This page will only start working after we send the surveys out.)

If you prefer, you can just message us and give us your information, but answering your survey will help us get your rewards out to you quicker. BackerKit helps us save lots of time by streamlining the survey process, automating data organization, and providing us with pledge management software to make it easy to process your pledge reward shipments.

If you used Facebook to log into your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey link will be sent to the email you used for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you'd prefer to use, please message us.

Let us know if you have any questions or concerns about the project via message (or by email [email protected]). We'd love to hear your feedback or any suggestions you might have.

Again, thanks for all your support. We can’t wait to send you your Lux Cables.
