How does Fig work?
Fig uses the results of crowdpublishing campaigns to help inform its greenlighting process. If a campaign is “successful” Fig agrees to fund the game, and has also obtained market intelligence that the game is more likely to be a success.
Rewards:
Fans can discover new games and support studios they love through reward-based backing.
Please review our Rewards Questions section for further information.
Investing:
Accredited and non-accredited investors can share in the success of games developed by their favorite studios. Some of our smaller campaigns limit investment (but not rewards) to accredited investors only. Fig has a contract with each developer whereby Fig contributes development funding and receives a royalty stream in return. Fig sells its own stock, which we call Fig Gaming Shares. There is one series of Fig Game Share stock for each offering/video game. With Fig Gaming Shares, Fig offers stock that derives economic value from its royalty stream. It is not however an investment in, or purchase of, the royalty stream, it is one step removed. The royalty stream goes into a pool, from which Fig is obligated to dividend out a percentage (typically now 85%). Please review our Investor Questions section for further information.
Reg A:
In our Reg A offerings, which are typically our larger campaigns, both accredited and nonaccredited investors are able to purchase Fig Gaming Shares associated with a specific game or game consoles, which pay dividends based on that game's sales. Offerings for Fig Gaming Shares launch after a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) qualification process. An offering circular that describes the Fig Gaming Shares will be available to you, and you will have the option to invest. In some campaigns, you may first place reservations for investments in Fig Gaming Shares prior to the time the SEC qualification process completes. Please review our Investor Questions section for further information.
