Abstract. Crowdfunding represents a contemporary paradigm in project financing, wherein capital is sourced from a multitude of individuals, termed backers, via online platforms. Given the pivotal role of fundraising in project outcomes, comprehending backer attitudes assumes paramount significance. This study endeavours to delineate distinct backer profiles predicated on the underlying motives guiding their engagement in crowdfunding. To achieve this objective, empirical data was acquired through a structured questionnaire and subsequent analysis employing fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) was undertaken. The findings of this investigation furnish insights into the heterogeneous nature of backer motivations, thus enabling the formulation of targeted recommendations for campaign creators aimed at effectively engaging diverse backer profiles.
