Does Republic allow international investors?
The terms of each campaign on Republic, from the type of security being sold, to who can participate, is determined by each company crowdfunding. Each campaign's Form C will list which jurisdictions are being solicited on the cover page.
If a company is accepting international investors or investors from your jurisdiction, you can invest using your credit/debit cards or via a wire transfer.

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. Thanks for answering the question!

What are the conditions allowing the startup to do a rolling close?
Any startup raising on Republic can choose do a rolling close if their campaign has already raised double its minimum target amount and has more than 21 days left. Additionally, startups must pre-disclose their ability to do the rolling close in their Form C.

How does the waitlist work?
If the campaign reaches the maximum goal, no more investments can get accepted and all following investment commitments get added to the waitlist.
If one of the earlier investors decides to cancel or doesn’t fund their investment in time, the first person with the matching or lower desired allocation on the waitlist will get their spot.
For example, If space opens up for $1,000 and your waitlisted investment is $1,500, you won't get in, but the person behind you with a $900 waitlisted investment will get in, and the next person with a $100 waitlisted investment or less will get in as well.

What fees does Republic charge?
Investing on Republic is free for Investors. Companies pay only if they successfully reach their funding goal: 6% of the total funds raised in cash, and 2% as a Crowd Safe. Companies raising on Republic may also use the proceeds of their successful financing to pay for the escrow agent and other transaction-related fees. Related: how much does it cost to launch a campaign? Example using a Crowd Safe: Equity Startup, Inc. raises $100,000 at $10M valuation and hits its funding goal, effectively selling an equivalent of 1% of its equity. Republic takes $6,000 and Crowd Safe with a $2,000 face value (0.02% in an equity equivalent). Example using a Token DPA: Blockchain Startup, Inc. raises $100,000 and hits its funding goal, effectively selling $100,000 plus interest in tokens. Republic takes $6,000 and Token DPA with a $2,000 face value (later equivalent for cash or tokens). Example using a Revenue Share: Revenue Startup, Inc. raises $100,000 and hits its funding goal, effectively selling $100,000 in debt with a revenue right. Republic takes $6,000 and a revenue right with a $2,000 face value (which will entitle Republic to payments as if Republic had put $2,000 into the offering).

I am a Canadian investor, can I participate?
Each company on Republic decides which jurisdictions to accept investors from and is responsible for ensuring they are compliant in that jurisdiction.
When an offering is open to international investors, Canadian investors are welcome to participate in offerings on Republic.
Canadian investors may be subject to additional holding requirements that exceed those that apply to US investors.
Canadian investors should consult with their local regulators and each company's Form C before investing.

How is my investment limit calculated on a 12 month rolling basis?
For compliance purposes, we use each offering's closure date to select investments in the rolling 12-month calculation, and not the investment commitment date.
Investment limits are calculated as (Investment commitments as of the date of the campaign they are associated's closing for the next 365 days + any disclosed Title III investments made on other portals).
For example, an investment commitment of $100 made on 1/1/17 for a campaign that closed successfully on 2/1/18, would count as being made and going against an investor's investment limit from 2/1/18 to 2/1/19.
This means that an investment made during a campaign can count against your 12 month rolling investment limit for more than 12 months depending on when the campaign closes. Please consult your investor profile to see your current limit.

What if the company I invested in went bankrupt?
The company or its trustee is responsible for providing you tax documents to reflect the loss. Republic may assist these companies in distributing tax documents, but cannot create them or secure them until there is court approval of the winding up of the business. Thanks for the feedback! You are right and we always talk about it.

Hi,
Can you show us some proof of your affiliation with Binance and NEO? I contacted the Binance admins over Telegram and they told me they dont know anything about that. In your thread you are claiming that you are backed by both Binance and NEO.
Thank you for your question and interest in the project! Please duplicate your question in the pm of the admin BTT or in the Telegram chat https://t.me/republiccrypto

Can I sell my stake in the startup?
You’re allowed to sell your stake in a crowdfunding investment starting one year after your investment is provided to you, and earlier under some circumstances. However, there’s no guarantee that someone will be willing to buy it at that point.
|
|
|
Can I fund my investment via multiple payment methods?
While Republic supports multiple payment methods, you can only use one payment method per investment.
|
|
|
If I invest in a company and they fail to reach their funding goal, will I be refunded?
Yes, if a company fails to meet their funding goal all investments in that company will be cancelled and refunded.
