CAMPFIRE, Inc. develops and operates a Japanese crowdfunding platform. Individuals, creators, companies, nonprofits, universities and local governments publish projects, while supporters contribute online and may receive products, experiences or other rewards. Its services span general crowdfunding, recurring community support, social-good, entertainment, sports and hometown-tax projects.

Project listings are free; CAMPFIRE earns mainly from fees deducted from funds raised when a project qualifies. Its standard namesake service charges project owners a 12% platform fee plus a 5% payment fee, before tax, while rates and who pays vary across specialist services.
