About cohero
What is cohero?
cohero is a platform where Dreamers share a goal split into milestones, and Backers discover those Dreams by swiping and support them directly, step by step, as the Dreamer proves each milestone.
What is a Dreamer?
A Dreamer is someone with a goal who needs funding, such as a business, studies, health, a creative project or something for their community.
What is a Backer?
A Backer discovers Dreams in the feed and supports the ones they believe in, fully or partly, with the amount they choose.
Is backing an investment?
No. Every backing is a gift of support. Backers receive no shares, equity, interest or financial return.
For Dreamers
What does it cost to be a Dreamer?
The Dreamer membership is $29 per month and applies when your Dream is live in the feed.
Why must my milestones add up to my goal?
Many Backers support one milestone at a time. When the amounts add up exactly to the goal, every part of the money has a clear purpose and proof.
How long does the review take?
Our team reviews every Dream before it goes live. Complete profiles, real photos and a clear milestone plan make reviews faster.
What happens if my membership lapses?
Your live Dreams are hidden from the feed until your membership is active again. Your drafts and data stay in your account.
How do I receive money from Backers?
Add your own payment methods to your profile, such as a PayPal.me link, Wise, Revolut, a Stripe payment link or your IBAN. Backers pay you directly, and you confirm each payment in the app when it arrives.
Can I offer rewards?
Yes, if you want to. You can add an optional reward to each milestone, such as a thank-you video, early access or a product. Rewards must never be money, interest or shares.
For Backers
Do Backers pay a membership?
No. Backers pay no membership. You only send the amount you choose, directly to the Dreamer.
Do I have to back the whole Dream?
No. You can back the whole Dream at once, or back one milestone at a time and wait for proof before you back the next.
What does Follow Dream do?
Following a Dream saves it to your list and keeps you updated on its progress.
Can I talk to a Dreamer before backing?
Yes. Open a chat from the Dream page to ask questions at any time.
Payments and milestones
Does cohero take a commission?
No. cohero takes no commission on backings. If you send $100, the Dreamer receives $100. Your bank or payment app may apply its own transfer or exchange costs.
How do I pay a Dreamer?
Tap Back this dream, choose the whole Dream or a milestone, and pay with one of the Dreamer's own payment methods: PayPal, Wise, Revolut, a Stripe payment link or bank transfer. Then tap I've sent the amount so the Dreamer can confirm it.
Does cohero hold my money?
No. Payments go directly from you to the Dreamer. cohero never receives, holds or forwards backing money, and no card details are shared with us.
What if the Dreamer says the payment didn't arrive?
The Dreamer can mark a payment as not received. Check the payment in your app, then sort it out together in the chat. If you need help, contact us at hello@coheroapp.com.
In which currency are prices shown?
Prices follow your language: US dollars for English and Arabic, euros for Spanish, French and Portuguese, yuan for Chinese and rupees for Hindi. Backings are sent in the currency the Dreamer's payment method accepts.
Safety and rules
How do you keep cohero safe?
Every Dream is reviewed before it goes live, Dreamers prove each milestone with photos and video, and every Dream and profile can be reported. Our team acts on reports and can close Dreams that break the rules.
Can I block someone?
Yes. Blocking stops all messages both ways and hides that person's Dreams from your feed.
How do I back safely?
Back step by step and look at the proof before you back the next milestone. Only pay through the payment methods shown on the Dream page, keep your conversations on cohero, and never share passwords or one-time codes.
How do I delete my account?
You can request deletion in your profile. You have 30 days to change your mind; after that your account is deleted.
Where can I read the rules?
Our Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, Dreamer Rules, Backing & Gift Policy and the other policies are all collected on the Legal page.
