Hey backers!
It has been just over a month since we sent out the first Backerkit surveys. These surveys are required for us to send you digital products through DriveThruRPG and so we can finalize your order and shipping details.
As of today, 119 people still have not completed the Backerkit survey. If you have not completed your survey, please check the spam and trash folders for the email associated with your Kickstarter account. The Backerkit survey email has a subject line of "Reminder -- Response needed to deliver your reward for The Planar Codex (5e)."
If you cannot locate the email and believe you have not completed the survey, please contact us through the Kickstarter and we will be happy to help.
Thank you for your support!

FEEDBACK REQUIRED - WE NEED YOUR HELP!
To help make The Planar Codex the best and most balanced 5th Edition book it can be, we are seeking your feedback on The Iron Hells chapter to allow for any necessary adjustments before finalizing the chapter.
Please feel free to take this early access play-test PDF to your table, give the player options a spin, and let us know how your experiences playing these subclasses, species, spells, and feats went.
Even if you don’t have the opportunity to play them, your feedback from simply reading through this PDF is just as important.

Backerkit Surveys sent! Huzzah! Check your inboxes!

Planar Adventurers! We have an important update!
We have some exciting news, the Backerkit surveys have been released to everyone! Check your email inboxes (and your junk folders) to make sure you have received yours.
So, what does this mean for you?
Backerkit is a third-party pledge manager service that integrates with Kickstarter. We use it to give you, our amazing backers, the opportunity to purchase extra add-ons (in addition to automatically pulling your already purchased Kickstarter pledge into it), for collecting any relevant shipping fees, and to confirm your delivery address information all under a single roof.
All of this information is collected via the Backerkit survey which is sent to your Kickstarter-associated email address (each survey is unique to every backer and contains your specific Kickstarter pledge information already included).
This means that you will receive an email in your inbox from BackerKit, asking that you fill in this survey as soon as possible. Please note, it will take time for these to reach everyone's accounts. So, if yours isn't in your email inbox yet, rest assured - it is on the way.
You will need a Backerkit account in order to complete your survey. If you don’t have one already you should be prompted to create one when you click the link in the survey email. Alternatively, you can create one now by following this link here.
*please note, if you used Apple Pay to pay for your Kickstarter pledge then your email address associated with your pledge may have been overridden by your email address with one ending in @privateappleid. If this is the case, you will need to message us with the correct email address you would like your BackerKit Survey sent to. Please message us via the Kickstarter inbox with the correct address and we can amend this for you*
VAT/GST information for our Canadian, European, and UK backers
Value Added Tax/GST is relevant in several countries, and it is our legal obligation to ensure proper accounting for VAT for packages destined for countries where it applies. We appreciate your understanding regarding these additional charges, emphasizing that they are not imposed by P.B Publishing or the Planar Codex Team as a whole.
The shipping cost indicated in your BackerKit survey already includes VAT. If the amount appears slightly higher than expected based on the estimated charges shown on our Kickstarter campaign page, it is due to this inclusion. Your checkout summary will clearly outline the specific amounts attributed to VAT/GST.
Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have regarding survey access, shipping, VAT, or any other inquiries. Please direct your questions to our Kickstarter inbox, and we'll be delighted to assist you.
We hope you enjoy navigating through your surveys and are eagerly anticipating the Iron Hells chapter for early release later this month!
Many thanks

Backerkit Surveys - where are they?!
almost 2 years ago
– Thu, Apr 04, 2024 at 08:35:27 PM
Hey there Planes Hoppers
Just a quick touch base as this week we were supposed to have the Backerkit Surveys out to all backers. As you can probably tell, this hasn't quite happened yet.
In all transparency, the reason you have not yet to receive your surveys is due to Backerkit being a little slow with processing our payment of their fees (it's been paid - but it's still being processed their end).
Once they finish processing this fee, they only then open our ability to send the surveys via the pledge manager, which are all set up and ready to send.
I've sent a support ticket to the Backerkit Pledge Manager support team to get this looked at this morning, and I am still waiting to hear back from them.
We super appreciate your patience, and hopefully we can get this cleared soon and have surveys in your email inboxes asap.
We'll keep you updated as things progress and again thank you for your patience.
Cheers
Phil, Cody, and Chris
The Planar Codex team
