Is Fundingteam lending me money?

No, Fundingteam does not provide loans.

Fundingteam is an online platform that provides you with your own crowdfunding platform, allowing you to obtain funding directly from multiple investors.

How do I connect with multiple investors?

Funding team shows you the way to approach hundreds, thousands or even many thousands of potential investors through the Internet, social media and/or specific websites.
Some of
these potential investors shows interest in your business or plan, or in you as an entrepreneur. We call this possibility funding tunnels. This is how your company builds its own network of investors for the long term.
Investors with whom you have direct contact and who care about your company and are thus your ambassadors.

Can I pay afterwards?

No.
Nor is that necessary.
We have made sure that the application and subscription fees are as low as possible.
The fee grows with you as you accumulate more capital.
So you don’t have to worry about the cost.
Our subscription model is designed to allow as many entrepreneurs as possible to issue bonds independently.
That is why there is a very low entry level model.
With this, we want to give every entrepreneur the access to this financing tool that has been used for years by large companies and governments.
At the same time, the low entry level implies that we cannot accept payments after the fact.
We have also deliberately chosen not to charge a separate success fee, for example a percentage of the money you raise from the crowdfunding proceeds.
This means that all proceeds from the sale of your bonds directly and completely benefit your company.

Is Fundingteam a traditional crowdfunding platform?

Is attracting multiple investors new?

No, working with multiple investors is certainly not new.
It’s as old as entrepreneurship.

Many large(er) companies and other successful entrepreneurs have grown by partnering with multiple investors. Consider stock and bond exchanges worldwide.

For a long time, start-ups and growing entrepreneurs were legally prohibited from addressing the public by offering interest and borrowing money.
Due to changes in the law, this is now allowed.
But that’s where the challenge begins.

Thanks to the Internet and modern technology, Fundingteam makes it easier than ever for startups and growth companies to employ the Fundingteam method.

Your network can consist of family, friends, acquaintances, customers, suppliers but of course also employees, co-shareholder(s) or business partners.
These are people you already know but maybe you don’t (yet) feel like doing this.
With the Fundingteam method and funding-funnels you can quickly build a network and expand it with people you do not yet know.

What does your business need to meet?

To use Fundingteam, your company must be registered with the Chamber of Commerce.
