Planeta.ru is a Russian crowdfunding platform, one of the first and currently the biggest in the country. It allows to fund creative, scientific, social, entrepreneurial and other projects by raising money from a large number of individuals. From its founding in June 2012 until February 2019 over 4500 projects totaling billion rubles were funded. The site is similar to English-language sites such as Kickstarter and IndieGoGo. Planeta.ru was founded on 7 June 2012 by three friends - Max Lakmus (bass player from the Bi-2 music band), Fedor Murachkovskiy and Vasily Andruschenko. In the beginning it was envisaged as a service for the music bands albums pre-orders. However, in the process of launching and development Planeta.ru became a crowdfunding platform.
