Terms of Service

Effective Date: [6.24, 2026]

These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the MakiMate website, waitlist, VIP deposit page, launch communications, and other related services.

By visiting our website, submitting your contact information, placing a VIP deposit, or otherwise using our services, you agree to follow these Terms.

1. About MakiMate

MakiMate is a furniture brand developing a lift desk designed with hidden storage, integrated charging access, multiple size and color choices, and optional product upgrades.

Our website may display product previews, development updates, launch details, early-access opportunities, VIP deposit offers, and links to Kickstarter or other official purchase channels.

2. Pre-Launch Product Information

Some information displayed on our website may relate to products that are still being designed, tested, or prepared for launch.

Although we make reasonable efforts to keep product information accurate, some details may change before production, including:

  • Product dimensions
  • Colors and finishes
  • Materials
  • Accessories
  • Power specifications
  • Plug types
  • Packaging
  • Optional upgrades
  • Estimated delivery schedules
  • Final Kickstarter reward options

Final product specifications will be confirmed through the Kickstarter campaign, official checkout process, or post-campaign survey.

3. VIP Deposit

Before launch, MakiMate may offer customers the option to place a $5 VIP deposit.

The deposit is intended to reserve VIP access and may provide benefits such as early launch notifications and access to a private Kickstarter Secret Perk link.

A VIP deposit is not a completed product order and does not guarantee:

  • That the campaign will launch
  • That the product will remain available
  • Successful production or delivery
  • A specific delivery date
  • A particular product configuration
  • Shipping to a particular country or region
  • A successful Kickstarter campaign

Unless clearly stated otherwise during checkout, the VIP deposit is separate from any future Kickstarter pledge or product purchase.

4. Kickstarter Secret Perk

Customers who place a VIP deposit may receive a private Kickstarter Secret Perk link after the campaign becomes available.

A Secret Perk is a private Kickstarter reward that may not be displayed on the campaign’s public reward list.

Access may be limited by campaign timing, reward quantities, regional availability, Kickstarter requirements, and other campaign conditions.

All Kickstarter pledges are also governed by Kickstarter’s own terms, payment procedures, and platform policies.

5. Pricing

Prices shown on the MakiMate website, including starting prices, VIP prices, launch discounts, suggested retail prices, and promotional savings, are provided for informational and marketing purposes.

Prices may be changed before or during the Kickstarter campaign.

The final amount charged for any pledge, reward, or purchase will be the price shown on the official Kickstarter or checkout page at the time the transaction is completed.

6. Size, Color, and Upgrade Options

MakiMate may provide different desk sizes, colors, and optional upgrades.

Available choices may include:

  • Compact size
  • Standard 1.2m size
  • Selected color options
  • Dual-Lift Motor Upgrade
  • Solid Wood Top Upgrade

Customers may be asked to select their preferred size, color, and upgrades during the Kickstarter pledge process or through a post-campaign survey.

Specific choices may vary depending on the campaign stage, production plans, regional availability, and inventory.

7. Power and Plug Compatibility

Where possible, MakiMate plans to provide a suitable plug type based on the customer’s selected shipping country or region.

Customers may be asked to confirm their country, region, or required plug type during the Kickstarter pledge process or post-campaign survey.

Final power specifications and plug configurations will be confirmed before fulfillment.

8. Worldwide Shipping

MakiMate intends to support international shipping where reasonably possible.

The countries and regions available for delivery may depend on logistics providers, local laws, product configurations, campaign requirements, shipping limitations, and fulfillment conditions.

Final shipping destinations, estimated delivery periods, and applicable shipping charges will be confirmed through the Kickstarter campaign, official checkout, or post-campaign survey.

9. Payments

Payments, deposits, and Kickstarter pledges may be processed by third-party payment providers or by Kickstarter.

MakiMate does not control third-party payment systems and is not responsible for payment delays, declined transactions, processing errors, or other issues caused by those providers.

When submitting a payment, deposit, or pledge, you agree to provide accurate contact and payment information.
