Pledge Examples Draft page
working on a Draft page for pledge-examples, that I will move to pledge-examples when finished.
Pledge Examples
This page is a documentation of examples where people are pledging money for different reasons online without simultaneously paying on the spot the money pledged.
Why Pledge Without Paying?
Generally, on the web, "pledging" money has been done in conjunction with donating money. So that pledges are simultaneaously donations that are paid immediately via online ecommerce tools (like paypal).
Increasingly, people have been using online environments to collectively raise money for different purposes. This is leading to situations where people prefer to first pledge money before paying.

The following people are interested in this:
Real-World Examples

Real World Examples section
- Flat list at a minimum. The real world examples section should be at a minimum a flat list of examples. See further down for what a good example has.
- Grouping into categories can help. A giant flat list of examples can sometimes be difficult to navigate and analyze as a whole. Consider grouping related examples into a flat list of categories. If you're not sure how to categorize the examples, or if there are multiple axes across which you could categorize the examples, ask on the mailing list and/or irc channel
