Frequently Asked Questions.

Bunkay imposes no minimum: the target is negotiated with your workshop or factory, which will tell you its minimum production quantity. Set the goal at this threshold, not above. An achievable target is better than an ambitious one that fails.

At the deadline, production starts if the target is reached. Otherwise, the creator has 14 days to confirm a smaller production run. If the campaign is cancelled or not confirmed within that period, paid pre-orders are automatically refunded.

Production begins at the deadline, with no further validation: this is the promise made to the pre-ordering clients.

No. The price is fixed upon publication: this is what makes customer engagement credible. Prepare it by including manufacturing, packaging, and delivery.

No. Bunkay connects you with partner studios, but you are free to produce at your own.

Because you are collecting money from customers for pieces that do not yet exist. Verifying your legal information makes this trust possible. A brand can be pending, verified, or rejected.

No, these are separate: AI credits are used for the creation studio, while the advertising budget is spent with the media agencies.

Yes, upon registration. Without verification, access to features remains limited.

Request deletion in your account settings. You have 30 days to reverse the request, after which your personal data is anonymised. Shared orders and conversations are retained under an anonymised identity. A subscription that has not ended or a paid custom order that has not been delivered prevents the request.

Inactive conversations older than five years are automatically purged. You can hide a thread on your side at any time.
