Crowdfunding Platform

question Crowdfunding
Hi
I am from Sweden and I am going to launch a crowdfunding platform within a couple of months. But I am very confused if I should build it by a programmer or should just buy a license. I am going to use it for microcredit. Is there any suggestion for me from any professional? My email: rifatbd1 at y a h o o . c o m.

thanks
Rifat

    Having tried both routes - i would always recommend building your own. Inevitably further down the line and as your business develops you will want to tweak the way it works, being tied to somebodies else's creation will always limit you!

    If you want to build a team of developers i can put you in touch with the network of developers that built our site, that have been fantastic - see our site as an example... www.abundancegeneration.com

    good luck!

    Hi Rifat,
    Massolution's researchers are currently working on a report to give you an overview of the different white label solutions available for someone in your position. While I agree with Karl's observation that it is important to retain some measure of flexibility once the platform is up and running, developing everything yourself might turn out to be a very costly experience.

    I would therefore advice you to consider the available options, reach out to the providers that are already in the market, and inform your decision -- keeping the trade-off between development costs and ex post flexibility in mind.

    Fell free to drop me an e-mail, and I'll tell you more about the White Label Report (timing etc.)

    Dear Karl a
    Thank you for the reply.

    I looked at the recommended website and it looked quite good. I was wondering about the cost of devloping a platform!

    I would be more than happy to get in touch with some developers. I would request you to send a mail to me to rifatbd1ATyahooDOTcom.

    Thanks again
    Regards
    Rifat
