Gamefound is #1 Board Game CF platform - 2024 summary
In 2024, Gamefound became the biggest crowdfunding platform for board games!
(We consider total funding, including Pledge Manager and Late Pledges volumes.)
And that… well, it is just incredible. I cannot be more thankful for the trust you all have given us. I also cannot be more proud of our team, who give their best every day, creating the best crowdfunding platform out there - not by cutting corners, but through hard work.
On Gamefound, we hosted tons of amazing tabletop projects, including board games, terrain, accessories, and RPGs. In 2024, we gathered over $156 million USD!
So, let’s follow that up with a bunch of cool stats:
- 8 out of 10 most-funded board games were on Gamefound!
- Over $85 million in crowdfunding (Tabletop category)
- Over $71 million in Late Pledge / Pledge Manager (Tabletop category)
- In December 2024, Gamefound was #1 in the entire tabletop category, not just board games
- 28% more RPG campaigns
- 25 major releases
- 54 new major features
- 1,353,259 users and 930 creators!
Here are the top 10 Gamefound campaigns!
For 2025, our goal is to be #1 not only in board games but in the entire tabletop category! To this end, we have developed a lot of extra functionalities for RPG and accessories projects. If you’re considering launching one on Gamefound, 2025 will be the best year to jump on board!
But, as always, numbers don’t tell the whole story.
Working with our team every day, I feel like part of a revolution - and that’s certainly the spirit here. We want to make the crowdfunding experience much better, and we feel like we’re just scratching the surface of what’s possible. We have so many more ideas to implement!
I hope that for all the creators and backers joining us on this journey, it feels the same way. We deeply enjoy and appreciate your comments, feedback, and interactions. Your trust and support give us the energy to keep moving forward - and knowing that we are making a positive contribution drives us.
While our slogan, The Future of Creativity, may sound a bit cheesy, we truly believe that by providing the best technology and features, we can empower creators to make their dreams come true and create something spectacular. That’s why we’re here - to aid your creativity.

I am extremely proud of how Gamefound has developed over the years! But we’re far from done. We’re determined to bring a lot of new features to help both backers and creators. We have built an amazing team ready for action, and we’re entering 2025 with tons of new ideas, a willingness to hear feedback, and the determination to get things done!
