Kickstarter - How to handle finished product/IAP as a reward

[lazypeon]

Just curious if anyone has tried offering the finished product or free IAP on Kickstarter for your backers.

I'm thinking of trying a Kickstarter campaign, but can't quite figure out how I'd offer the app as a reward. I'd considered 'gifting' the app, but there's a thread on here (I think from Imangi) that talked about some gotchas, like that you can only do a few emails at once and/or having your credit card blocked for what appears to be fraudulent activity.

As for free IAP, not sure if you can gift IAP or not? You might get around this by having the user enter some code to 'redeem' their reward in-game, and just unlock the IAP that way -- not sure. It seems like it'd be a pain to manage.

Has anyone done something similar, or have some insight into how you might do it? I feel like for Kickstarter, getting the final product is usually the most popular backing level, so I'm wracking my brain to figure out how you could do it.
