# Supporting an Idea

When you support an Idea, you show that you would like to see it implemented. You raise awareness for it by your support. The Idea's 🔥 interest increases, which makes it more visible to other people, and more likely that people will draft Solutions for it.

You also have the potential to earn 🎁 funder rewards for creating or supporting an Idea.

## Positions

Each time you support an Idea, you create a *position* in that Idea.

When you withdraw from a position, you receive your original contribution, minus any 🎁 funder reward and anti-spam fees you paid, plus any amount you earned from 🎁 funder rewards.

The default 🎁 funder reward for Ideas is 10%. The anti-spam fee is typically 1%.

### Multiple positions

Because the earning potential of a position increases over time, when you add more support, you create another position. Each position must be withdrawn separately.
