A new start up to plan a crazy, out-of-the-box trip, and get it funded by the crowd. A new start up wants to give a whole new direction to the travel industry by bringing the concept of crowdfunding to travels.

 
Columbus, OH, November 27, 2013 -- If someone have a unique, out-of-the box travel idea or just want to drop-in and say hi to grandma without being a scrooge, they can think of crowdfunding, registering with this new startup that could get any travel idea funded by an inspired crowd looking to fund and play a part of an extraordinary and unforgettable experience. Today, a new player in the Crowd Funding arena, a new startup called Fund Your Travel (FYT) that wants to be able to change the traditional model of crowdfunding and provide a win-win solution to both, the travelers and the backers who fund those travel plans.

In the traditional model of crowdfunding, the backers of ideas are left with project souvenirs (t-shirts, coffee mugs, source code etc.) and the bliss of being a part of an innovative solution while their contributions are put to good use by the innovators. FundYourTravel wants to change this, and works by providing the project backers with a means of saving their travel-idea contributions elsewhere. They want to make this happen by letting the backers choose coupons that save them an equal amount on other products and services. By coupling this idea the traditional returns of making a contribution on a crowdfunding platform; it becomes a truly rewarding experience. This means that the community (the crowd) essentially saves the money they contributed; and one gets a much better chance of getting their travel idea funded.

FundYourTravel claims to want to do what it takes to fund travel ideas and also wants to help by enabling other channels of sponsorship to help fund all travel plans, FYT will also allow other businesses to partially or completely fund travel ideas on the site; this adds an interesting twist to the traditional crowdfunding model. A smaller business would greatly improve its reach and also be able to support a social cause; which millions, around the world will have their eyes on; it cannot get bigger than this! This would not only help the travelers but also help the company reach a larger crowd by creating greater brand awareness and essentially market their products and services.

FundYourTravel will be an online crowdfunding website and goes with the core idea of being “a global community of the travelers, by the travelers, for the travelers”. Any travelers successfully funded by this platform would be encouraged to take pictures, blog, send postcards and share their unforgettable experiences with the world in any way they see fit; After all, the growth of any community depends on symbiosis.

The website (http://fundyourtravel.com), is open to everyone for signing up for a beta launch, spreading the word and getting their travel ideas ready. So go ahead and be part of the community. This is one player we’ve all got under the radar!
