Learn more about eligibility and limits

What do I get when I invest?

Unlike donation-based crowdfunding, when you commit money to a company on Republic you receive a security. Companies on Republic typically use a Crowd Safe
Learn more about the Crowd Safe

How do I earn money?

You earn a return if the company you invested in is acquired or becomes a publicly traded company at a higher price than you paid. If the company fails to do either, you do not receive your money back or a return.

Company

Republic is a funding portal owned and operated by OpenDeal Inc., which is registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a funding portal (Portal) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). It is not a broker dealer or an investment adviser. Nothing on this site constitutes advice to buy or sell securities. SEC registration does not constitute an endorsement by the SEC or FINRA, and does not imply a level of skill or training. All activities on this site are governed by our Terms of Service. Arbitration is the sole dispute resolution method for any legal matter involving Republic or its users.

Investments in private companies are particularly risky and may result in total loss of invested capital. Past performance of a security or a company does not guarantee future results or returns. Only investors who understand the risks of early stage investment and who meet the Republic's investment criteria may invest.

Republic does not verify information provided by companies on this Portal and makes no assurance as to the completeness or accuracy of any such information. Additional information about companies fundraising on the Portal can be found by searching the EDGAR database.
