Donor FAQ
Below you will find a growing list of answers to some of the many questions that we’re routinely asked.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR DONORS
1) The best way to stay up to date with Axanar is by visiting www.axanar.com on a regular basis.
2) All donors should be receiving our donor email newsletter. If you are not, you may subscribe to the donor email list by signing up here.
3) All donors need to go through Axanar Donors, our donor management system, which is also how we deliver digital perks, keep donor information such as your current address and which allows you to track your perks. This is where you can update your shipping address as well.
- Go to www.axanar.com.
- Click on “Axanar Donors” in the nav bar. (Or you can go directly to www.axanardonors.com.
- Click on “I am a previous donor” there in the middle.
- Update your info.
4) If you have any donor questions, you can email Alec directly at alec@axanar.com.
5) Axanar Kickstarter & Indiegogo – Available perks for the Axanar Kickstarter& Indiegogo fundraisers have been shipped to those who went through the Axanar Donors site. If you did not receive released perks, then:
- Go through Axanar Donors and ensure your information is up to date.
- Check the latest Perk Fulfillment Update (on the Axanar Fulfillment Blog) so you know what has been delivered, and what you may have missed.
- Email Alec at alec@axanar.com with what you are missing.
All other perks will be shipped when they are available, which generally means after we release Axanar in Summer 2023.
Please understand that while donors did not pay for the over $1 million in legal fees that we received for free from Winston & Strawn, the lawsuit by CBS/Paramount cost donors approximately $500,000 in studio costs and lost time. It delayed production, as we couldn’t proceed during the lawsuit and in 2017 we had to move our sets to a new studio across the country. And while Alec has invested over $200,000 himself, no one is getting paid to work on Axanar and that means we have to work on Axanar around our full time jobs. So please be patient. This is a massive undertaking.
