Successful Campaigns from Entrepreneurs

We are passionate about helping entrepreneurs access much-needed investment capital, while enabling investors to potentially earn good tax-free returns by investing directly through our platform. Due to the current COVID19 crisis — and the emergency CBILS credit measures — we have temporarily paused listing new investments as we are unable to conduct the credit assessment of a small business effectively. We will continue to support SMEs by helping them access emergency credit, and will continue to process repayments. While the Exchange has also been paused, users will be able to access their wallet funds as per usual, and all other platform operations will remain available. We hope to be back up to our full capability soon — in the meantime, why not explore some of the amazing entrepreneurs our community has backed over the years.
