Abstract :
In recent years crowdfunding is created as a web 2.0 and social network -based on financing for business startups and creative projects. This method has grown in many aspects, such as the number of platforms, the number of campaigns and their success rate, the volume of funding and the number of models offered. This growth has led researchers to investigate this phenomenon of the different dimensions and aspects. So this article is followed by a comprehensive review of the literature associated with this method. In this study, we have done a systematic review of 60 published articles until 2017 about the concept of crowdfunding. The research findings have been summarized. Moreover, the research orientation pattern has been determined by identifying the focus of great attention. Also the existing research gaps and suggestions for future research in the field of crowdfunding identified and explained. The results of the survey showed that the number of studies carried out on this new method are not very high but are increasing. It is necessary for the researchers to study this method (phenomenon) with a comprehensive and holism approach, using a review of the views of its various actors, stackholders and costumers and extracting the factors influencing the success and failure of this method.
