Can I sell tokens I receive through the Token DPA?
If the tokens are utility tokens, they should be freely tradeable, regardless of when you receive them. However, if tokens are considered securities tokens, they may only be tradeable pursuant to the general selling restrictions. Additional restrictions may apply for Canadian investors

What types of companies use the Token DPA?
We’ve made the Token DPA flexible enough to work for companies at every stage of development––whether they’re ramping up their projects and are looking for early followers or have sufficient funding, are releasing their protocols, and now want to legally involve supporters who might not be accredited investors. Either way, we’ve designed the Token DPA for companies to get tokens into the hands of their users, friends, and followers. Under federal securities law, companies can not publicly sell most tokens (or the rights to tokens) to unaccredited investors without seeking a proper securities registration exemption; otherwise, they risk sanction for improperly selling securities. The Token DPA is an effective instrument to sell the right to tokens to anyone, using Reg CF or other securities exemptions.

How do I get a return on my investment?
When you invest on Republic, you receive a Crowd Safe, which gives you a financial interest in the company you invested in. You can make money if that company “exits”, meaning it is acquired or goes public at a higher price than you paid for it, but could also lose your entire investment if it fails.

Some campaigns also offer perks (e.g. a pre-order of their product) for particular investment amounts.
