Invest in Startups You Love

Back founders solving the things you care about. Grok the risks, then join 74,416 investors who funded 131 startups with $24 million.1


Break the Monopoly of the Rich

Until May 16th 2016, the wealthy enjoyed a government-protected monopoly on investing in high-growth startups. Everyone now has the right to invest in what they care about and believe in.


Invest in Your Local Community

Out-of-touch bankers on Wall St. don't take any risks for Main Street. Let's re-create a world where friends and local communities can invest in their neighbors (like great-grandpa once did it).


Invest in Hard Moonshots

Venture capitalists invest like a herd of cattle into the "next hot app". But where is our hyper-loop and flying car? Support the hard stuff. It's even riskier, but it's good for America's long-term growth.


It's Time to Save Capitalism Together

Entrepreneurship is dying among the young, decreasing from 10.6% to 3.6% of < 30 year olds in 25 years. Wealth inequality is increasing. Let's help build more businesses and save the American dream.


Invest for the Right Reasons

Do it because you love the founders, or love the product, or feel their vision is super important and want to help make it happen. But don’t do it to make oodles of money. Startups are super risky and most fail.

How is Investing on Wefunder Different than the Stock Market?

It's much riskier

Never invest more than you can afford to lose. Startups and small businesses are hard, and even the best founders fail.

The outcomes are more binary

Startups either win big or go bankrupt. You could lose all your money. Consider them more like socially-good lottery tickets.

Hold for the long term

There is no secondary market, and it’s hard to price or re-sell your shares. You typically hold on to them for years before a return.

The money goes to the business

Your dollars help to create and grow companies, not line the pockets of Wall Street. That's often fulfilling.

There are more perks

Many companies have investor perks like VIP access to new products, store credits, or discounts. It’s all part of the experience.

Get behind the veil

Each company builds its own community, and you're part of it. You can help the companies in your portfolio succeed.
