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).

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).

How do I know if my financials are GAAP compliant?
GAAP refers to "generally accepted accounting principles", an industry standard for reporting financial information. To fundraise using Regulation Crowdfunding, you must submit your financial statements in GAAP format. If they're formatted like this example https://republic.co/help/issuer-gaap-example.pdf , meaning many of the same items and information (ex. issuance of stock) are covered in the same way, they're probably GAAP. That said, it's not just a question of formatting, and this isn't financial advice. If you're still not sure, it's best to check with a CPA. We recommend using Kristine Rasmussen from Assure ( krasmussen@assure.co). Most startups that have raised on Republic work with Kristine. Remember, if you want the ability to raise over $107,000, you must have your GAAP finances reviewed by an independent CPA.
