## Story
Before Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, X, Pinterest, Tinder, LinkedIn, Reddit, Craigslist, Coinbase, and WhatsApp became giants, each reshaped how people connect.Faxo unites those worlds—into one U.S.-built super app designed for global trust.One platform. Built for worldwide scale — still early in its growth.***** Faxo hit #32 in the App Store on 3/15/2026 ahead of Plenty of Fish and Truth Social. Those products are backed by public companies valued in the billions — Match Group at ~$7.2B and Trump Media at ~$2.7B.*****Notably, Faxo reached this level of traction within its first year — a pace that is uncommon for consumer apps.Faxo is a U.S.-built super app — combining social, business, commerce, dating, messaging, media, and more into one seamless platform. The super app model has already transformed life in Asia, but global adoption has stalled because WeChat’s ties to China limit trust.Tech leaders like Brian Chesky (Airbnb) and Mark Zuckerberg (WhatsApp) have publicly expressed their ambitions to build super apps, but they’re modifying existing products. Faxo was built from day one to integrate everything in one place — fast, secure, and global.Even Elon Musk has called the absence of a global, consolidated super app a “fundamental gap” in the market. Faxo is designed to fill that gap — and we already have the traction to prove it. The market is fragmented, the opportunity is massive, and we have an early-mover edge.With proprietary tech that scales to unlimited features and multiple revenue streams already live, Faxo is positioned to become the default digital hub for billions worldwide (not guaranteed) — just as WeChat has in China, but built in the U.S. and trusted globally.📈 The Future is All-in-OneSuper apps have already transformed digital life in Asia — now the same shift is coming to the rest of the world, and Faxo is designed to be at the forefront. We’re not just an app, we’re an ecosystem where every feature makes the others more valuable, keeping users engaged and revenue flowing.To maximize reach and comply with app store policies, Faxo comes in two versions: Faxo+ (mature, includes dating) and Faxo (teen-rated, excludes dating). Both deliver the same super app experience, ensuring we can serve the broadest possible audience worldwide.Built in the U.S. for a global audience, Faxo is positioned to capture markets everywhere. We believe this shift is inevitable — the only question is who will own it. We believe it’s going to be Faxo, and early investors will share in the upside.🔄 Unmatched User RetentionWhen one platform delivers social networking, messaging, dating, business tools, a marketplace, content creation, and live streaming in one seamless experience, it becomes part of a user’s daily life. Each feature fuels engagement in the others, creating habits single-purpose apps can’t match.When everything users need is in one place, they don’t just visit — they stay.Faxo unites the strengths of apps worth $2+ trillion — Facebook’s social, LinkedIn’s professional tools, Tinder’s dating, WhatsApp’s messaging, and Craigslist’s marketplace — into one platform where everything works together.When your professional network boosts your social life, or your purchases enhance your reputation, value compounds across the ecosystem. Our AI learns from every interaction to make each feature smarter — a synergy single-purpose apps can’t replicate.🌐 Viral Growth Through Network EffectsIn Faxo, every new feature and every new user amplifies value for the entire ecosystem:A dating user becomes a marketplace buyer.A business user creates content and joins groups.A seller becomes a content creator, streamer, or mentor.The more users join — and the more features they use — the faster growth compounds.📢 Ads — Targeted placements across social, work, dating, and shopping (Facebook-like).⭐ Subscriptions — Separate premium plans for dating, business, and social (LinkedIn-style).🎁 In-App Purchases — Gifts, boosts, and coins for live streams, creators, and dating (TikTok-like).🛒 Marketplace Fees — Take-rate on local services & goods with identity and messaging (eBay-style).🧰 Business Tools — Paid pages, CRM, analytics, bookings, and self-serve ads for SMBs (Shopify-style).Why this compounds: Multi-feature users are more engaged and more monetizable—value single-purpose apps can’t capture.Industry example: As seen with Grab (a leading Southeast Asian super app), cross-service users spend ~4× more and order up to 5× more often, driving higher retention and ecosystem stickiness—effects single-purpose apps struggle to match.One identity. One wallet. One feed. Each stream reinforces the others—compounding engagement and revenue.💰 Cost-Efficient ScalingSuper apps unify infrastructure, driving lower customer acquisition costs and leaner operations:One brand, one app, one account — market once, onboard once, retain for life.Shared backend across multiple functions — less complexity, faster updates, lower overhead.💡 Connie Chan (Andreessen Horowitz) on the rise of super apps in ChinaFor context only.Andreessen Horowitz partner Connie Chan helped popularize the super-app concept — explaining why bundling services creates compounding growth and unbeatable retention.🔁 The super-app flywheel: Bundling apps → higher retention, lower CAC⚙️ Platform > product: Each new feature/app amplifies the whole💰 Monetization & moat: One identity + wallet → diversified revenue, stickier users🚀 Next Revenue Drivers in DevelopmentWe’re building three major features to power the next stage of Faxo’s growth:🌐 Create Your Own Social Network – For both individuals and corporations, like Discord or Slack’s “create your own server,” users can launch their own branded communities inside Faxo — driving engagement and monetizable micro-networks.📊 Direct Ads – Businesses and creators will buy and manage ads directly inside Faxo, leveraging unmatched targeting across social, business, dating, and marketplace activity.💳 Crypto Wallets – Secure, integrated wallets enabling transactions, payments, and digital asset storage — positioning Faxo for the global Web3 economy.🔥 Update - Faxo Crypto Wallet is Live w/Stock Trading PreviewThese features open entirely new monetization streams while making Faxo even more essential for daily use — all inside one scalable, all-in-one platform.While super apps dominate Asia, the U.S. market is fragmented — and ripe for consolidation. Faxo is an early mover with a native all-in-one platform, built in the U.S. for both American and global users — and this window won’t stay open for long.🚀 Own Faxo — the U.S.-built super app.1.4M+ users and growing — still early.

## FAQ
1. **Hello! I am trying to make an investment with a credit card from a Canada-based bank but continue to receive the following message: "We're sorry, but we can't support investors from your location." Is this accurate? Thanks in advance!**
   - Hello! I believe Wefunder will not work with a Canada based bank. However, it appears you have made investments on Wefunder before so I will confirm with my rep and get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you.
2. **I found this in the FAQ and I am puzzled because I have made a couple of investments already: "We do not allow investors from Canada or from certain sanctioned countries, including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, and Ukraine's Donetsk, Crimea, and Luhansk regions." I w...**
   - I raised the issue with my rep and he raised the issue to Wefunder support. We are still waiting to hear back. Hopefully this can be resolved quickly. Thanks!
3. **Can ordinary people like me invest in FAXO? Can I add to my investment, such as buy more stocks later on ?**
   - Yes. You can reserve your investment right now and then change the amount up until the point we reach our goal amount. We are currently at 66% of the goal.
4. **Hi Steve, what is the current price per share? Thanks, Ron**
   - Hi Ronny, Thanks for the question! Since we're currently raising via a SAFE on Wefunder, there isn’t a fixed price per share just yet — the actual share price will be set in a future priced equity round after we hit the $50k goal. That said, for estimation purposes: if Faxo were valued at $20 million with 10 million shares outstanding, that would imply a $2.00/share price. As an early investor, you’d get a 20% discount — so your effective price per share would be around $1.60. Best, -Steve
5. **Kindly update my account. Thanks Jerald levine**
   - Hi Jerald — thanks for your note! If you’re referring to your Wefunder investment account, please reach out to Wefunder support at support@wefunder.com and they’ll assist you directly. We don’t have access to investor account details, but we’re here to help with any questions about Faxo itself.

## Q&A
- Q: Follow up to my previous comment: I was eventually able to change my photo. I definitely still would encourage for QA to be kept at center focus, especially important for early stage startups where reviews are important for gaining traction / new users / investors / ad partners.
  - A: Thanks again for following up — glad you were able to update the photo! You’re absolutely right that QA and polish are critical early on. We’ve been actively improving the “Save” flows (for profile, pages, and images) — there are still a few edge cases we’re working through, but we jump on reported issues immediately. We monitor App Store / Play Store reviews in real time, have in-app feedback, and even do direct outreach asking users what the #1 thing is they’d like fixed first. Really appreciate your QA perspective and early support. 🙏
- Q: Can ordinary people like me invest in FAXO? Can I add to my investment, such as buy more stocks later on ?
  - A: Yes. You can reserve your investment right now and then change the amount up until the point we reach our goal amount. We are currently at 66% of the goal.
  - A: Quick update since my earlier reply: absolutely — anyone can invest in Faxo, and you can increase your investment anytime while the round is open. The round is now live on Wefunder, and early-bird terms are still available for those who confirm early.
- Q: I found this in the FAQ and I am puzzled because I have made a couple of investments already: "We do not allow investors from Canada or from certain sanctioned countries, including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, and Ukraine's Donetsk, Crimea, and Luhansk regions." I will have to speak with someone at Wefunder. Thanks and hopefully I can get on board with Faxo. It looks pretty awesome!
  - A: I raised the issue with my rep and he raised the issue to Wefunder support. We are still waiting to hear back. Hopefully this can be resolved quickly. Thanks!
  - A: Hello, I just heard from support. They said that Wefunder had to implement a protocol to prevent Canadians from investing hence why you can no longer invest on Wefunder. Thanks for your interest. We will notify you if circumstances change. Good luck!
- Q: As an investor there were several levels of perks depending on the amount of your investment. How does one go about getting access to those perks?
  - A: Great question! To get access to your investor perks, just email support@faxo.com with the email addresses of the accounts you’d like upgraded, and we’ll take care of it for you right away.
- Q: I have a few questions.... So 900k users. I've looked on the App store and the Play store. I can't see how many downloads on the App store, maybe because I'm using an android device. But the Play store says only 100k+ downloads. Where do the 900k users come from? How many of these users are active daily users? What is the user acquisition cost? How are you spreading the word about your app? Any stats on the users/active daily users on a month by month basis such as user/daily user increase per month? Some of this info would have been nice to include in the pitch deck, unless I inadvertently missed it 🙂
  - A: Thanks for the great questions! On user counts: As mentioned in the main campaign copy, Faxo has two versions of the app — Faxo and Faxo Plus (mature w/ dating) — and each exists on both iOS and Android. So there are four total app listings across the storefronts. Here are the two Android apps you can see publicly: Faxo (100k+ downloads) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.faxo.app.teen Faxo Plus (100k+ downloads) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.faxo On the Play Store, Google only updates the public badge at large intervals (100k → 500k → 1M), so both Android apps still show “100k+” until they individually hit 500k — and both are approaching that milestone. How we’re spreading the word: We grow through a mix of channels, including email outreach, viral hooks and sharing inside the app, our contact-invite system, incentives, and paid campaigns on major platforms like Google, Facebook, and TikTok. CAC / monetization approach: We focus on low-cost, efficient acquisition channels and then drive those users into our higher-margin verticals inside Faxo (for example, areas with stronger monetization potential vs. pure browsing). Current traction: We’re having record daily traffic, record daily signups, and a surge in direct traffic coming straight into Faxo — a great sign that brand awareness and word-of-mouth are accelerating. Activity / DAU: We don’t publish exact DAU/MAU numbers publicly, but both have been growing month-over-month with strong engagement. Our average engagement time is over 8 minutes per user per session. We’ll share more high-level metrics in an upcoming Wefunder update so investors can see the trajectory over time. Happy to go deeper on anything — really appreciate you digging in and asking thoughtful questions.
  - A: Quick follow-up here: since my reply above, we’ve now published a detailed Wefunder update that includes our current engagement metrics. Over the past 90 days, U.S. DAU/MAU peaked at 24%+, with ~94k global MAU and ~8.6k global DAU, based on Google Analytics. We also shared user satisfaction data (4.6–4.7★ ratings backed by 6,100+ ratings). These numbers reflect strong habit formation, particularly in our core U.S. market. Happy to answer any follow-ups or go deeper on acquisition, engagement trends, or monetization. https://wefunder.com/faxo/feed/259484-engagement-momentum-what-s-ahead
- Q: Who gave the $20M valuation?
  - A: The valuation cap was set by us as founders, which is standard in early-stage fundraising. It reflects our traction, growth, and the scope of what we’re building with Faxo.
  - A: Following up here now that we’ve shared updated metrics: The $20M valuation cap was set by us as founders, which is standard in early-stage fundraising. Since this question was asked, we’ve published current engagement data for additional context, including ~94k MAU, ~8.6k DAU, and 24%+ DAU/MAU in the U.S., along with strong user ratings. These numbers reflect early but real product-market fit and help frame how we think about valuation at this stage. https://wefunder.com/faxo/feed/259484-engagement-momentum-what-s-ahead
- Q: Also if I invest in the early bird start up. How will I be repeatedly? In stocks? And when will I start to receive the stocks? How many years or months? I'm new to all this so my questions may seam stupid to you but I work hard for what I have and can't afford to be scammed out of any of it. Not saying this is a scam. I like your ideals and goal. That's why I'm asking. And interested in investing.
  - A: Great questions — and not stupid at all! I really respect that you’re being careful with your money. On Wefunder, your investment is through a Crowd SAFE, which later converts into stock when the company raises a priced round or has an exit. You’ll see the SAFE in your Wefunder portfolio right away, and your funds stay in bank escrow until the campaign closes. Our early-bird investors (first $50K) get a $16M valuation cap, with $20M thereafter and a $1.235M max raise. I’ve already invested over $250K of my own cash and years of full-time engineering work (worth several million in sweat equity) to build Faxo from the ground up. I’m still personally funding development — this campaign simply lets everyday investors join the upside of what I’ve already created. Thanks so much for your thoughtful questions and support — I truly appreciate you taking the time to understand how it works. 🚀
- Q: Hi Steve, interesting project you trying to built here, thats a version of WeChat. Now tell me, how many team members are behind Faxo, and whats their experience in building public social applications? Have you considered working with engineers that worked on similar products before?
  - A: Thanks for the great question! Faxo has been built from the ground up by a highly experienced founder-led team with deep expertise in large-scale systems, cloud infrastructure, and consumer app development. The architecture, design, and engineering have been handled in-house to maintain tight product control and iterate rapidly across dozens of verticals within the platform. We’ve also collaborated with specialized contractors and advisors when needed — particularly around mobile optimization, security, and UI/UX — to ensure the product meets modern expectations for speed, reliability, and polish. As we scale through this raise, our plan includes expanding our technical and growth teams, including adding engineers with backgrounds in social and messaging platforms to accelerate new features and user growth. In short, the foundation is strong, proven, and positioned for growth — and we’re excited to keep building from here.

  - A: Hello! I believe Wefunder will not work with a Canada based bank. However, it appears you have made investments on Wefunder before so I will confirm with my rep and get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you.
- Q: 1. How will you plan to meet all various social media needs? The benefit of separate apps is they provide vertical specialization. An all in one app will either result in blandification of all the streams, or else, the benefit of some at the expense of others. For example, the life-posting will dominate resources and focus from the clip-streaming, or the marketplace will dominate over the microblogging, etc. 2. Are the various feed styles intermixed, or distinct? It might not "work" to have a micropost after a video clip after a photo after a long form blog post. (Or maybe it will, perhaps, with Gen Z's tendency for shorter attention spans and multi-stimulus consumption.) 3. Will the different segments have dedicated teams, or will one team be trying to deliver feature-richness on multiple different domains? 4. What are your QA plans? In-house or outsourced? Unit or functional or integration? Performance? 5. Are you using a CDN or some other means to offload the user traffic load? 6. Will this integrate with existing services, or replace them? This will affect people who have existing relationships on other platforms -- especially those who might not like, say, microblogging, or photo posting.
  - A: Great questions — these are exactly the challenges we designed Faxo to solve from day one. 1. Vertical vs “all-in-one” tradeoff Faxo isn’t one blended feed — it’s a modular system of experiences. Each vertical (video, social, marketplace, groups, etc.) has its own optimized UI/UX, while sharing a common backend (identity, monetization, distribution). This avoids “blandification” while unlocking cross-network effects. 2. Feed structure Feeds are user-selectable modes, not forced mixes. Users can browse in TikTok-style video, Instagram-style feed, or Pinterest-style grids — or stay fully within a vertical. We don’t force content types together; we let users choose how they consume. 3. Team structure Today we execute with a small, high-speed team by design. The architecture is modular, so each vertical can evolve independently without slowing others. As we scale, this naturally expands into vertical ownership without requiring a rewrite. 4. QA strategy We combine automated + real-world QA: rapid iteration, strong observability, and production feedback loops. Given the scale (1.3M users), real usage is a key part of validation alongside standard testing layers. 5. Infrastructure / scaling Yes — we use modern infrastructure (including CDN + caching strategies) to handle media and global traffic efficiently. The system is built for scale from the start. 6. Integration vs replacement Both. Faxo can replace multiple apps for power users, but also integrates external content (e.g., YouTube) so users don’t lose their existing networks. This lowers switching friction while still capturing engagement inside Faxo. Bottom line: Instead of one feed trying to do everything, Faxo is building a platform of specialized experiences on a shared foundation — combining the depth of vertical apps with the power of a unified network.
- Q: What is the exit plan (acquisition, IPO, merger, etc.) in which investors will be able to see a ROI?
  - A: Our goal is to build a large, enduring company — and the most natural long-term path is an IPO. That said, we operate with a clear fiduciary mindset. If a strategic acquisition or merger were to emerge that delivers exceptional value to shareholders, we would evaluate it carefully. In markets like this, the most valuable outcomes typically come from building scale first — which is our focus. As Faxo continues to grow its user base, engagement, and monetization, it naturally expands the range of potential outcomes. Bottom line: we are building for a major outcome, with IPO as the primary path, while remaining open to opportunities that maximize shareholder value.
- Q: I downloaded to my iPhone 15 (OS 15.5) and it did not let me change my photo - the "Save" button did not work. Parenthetically, I was a QA (Quality Assurance) Manager at another Wefunder startup a few years back which I won't of course publicly name - it went out of business due to being unable to raise enough subsequent capital because of investors fleeing due to bad user reviews from bugs that just got fixed too late. It is a good lesson that early stage apps need to have laser-focus on being bug free because those early reviews really matter. I am happy to communicate privately if you'd like in you all ever need QA advice. I think this is a great concept, I just hope history doesn't repeat itself in terms of a lack of focus on quality distracting from an otherwise promising product.
  - A: Really appreciate you taking the time to test Faxo and share this — and thank you for the QA perspective. You’re absolutely right that early reviews matter a lot. We’ve seen a few edge cases around the “Save” button when updating photos, and we’re actively improving the image-saving flow across social profiles, page profiles, and business profiles — including switching between them. Quality is top priority for us: we monitor App Store / Play Store reviews in real time, collect feedback in-app, and jump on issues immediately. I’d also be happy to connect privately — founder to QA — your offer to help is genuinely appreciated.
