That's not really a kickstarter so much as a gofundme for a business. $50 for a stress ball? $1000 for a ride in NYC? Kickstarter rewards ought to be close to the value that you're giving, because it's analogous to an investment. Kickstarter is not a charity fundraiser.
Why not give credits as a reward? You're raising capital for a business, so theoretically you should be profitable enough to pay back investors. And if not, there are no rides because there are no drivers.
Honestly today, this was competitive pricing against Lyft...
And if I could get a ride in this service today that might be relevant
