With
the increased interest in crowd-funded playing card projects
particularly on Kickstarter, we are publishing a monthly tracking report
as part of our popular Analytics series.
The goal is to give an analytical insight into the month-on-month
performance of projects and how these numbers are tracking cumulatively
year-to-date.

As the year draws to a close, the
year-to-date (YTD) numbers continue to surpass 2013 numbers. The chart
below describes how 2014 is tracking against the
numbers from 2013 as benchmark.

Playing Card Projects 

The number of unsuccessful projects fell 1% to 15% this month while the percentage of successful projects ended at 35% for November.

Here is what November looks like in numbers:

Majority of the projects were launched in mid-November, before the Thanksgiving long weekend. Graph below:

Here’s

a look at how projects performed over the month. Generally, the
percentage of
successful projects decreased while the number of unsuccessful projects remained stable at 15%. Meanwhile, live projects were up from last
month.

Funding

A total of $555k was raised by all projects in November, down $149k from October.

the overall funding of successful projects!

For the first time this year, the average YTD funding goal of successful project has dropped below $10k.

Backers 

This month, approximately 14.2k backers were
recorded across all projects. The average pledge per backer for
successful projects increased slightly to $39.76.
