Raise for Small Business

Interested in allowing your extended community 🇨🇦, your local community 🫶, and the network 🤝 around your business to invest in it?

It is now possible to allow the general public to buy shares and invest into your small business. 

Raise up to $1.5MM every rolling 12 months from your local community and all Canadians with equity crowdfunding. 

Equivesto is an equity crowdfunding platform at it’s heart.  We are built to help business owners allow their extended community, network, and the public to invest in small amounts. 

Equivesto will help you learn to strategize your equity crowdfunding campaign, build community and gather interest prior to your campaign.  We will introduce you to marketing experts to help you build momentum, and legal firms that specialize in equity crowdfunding with founder friendly fees.  Equivesto will walk you through the entire process and help make it simple. 

Let Equivesto help you with corporate structuring, the valuation or your business, the structuring of the deal, and everything you need to get investor ready.

While Equivesto does have a community of investors, these individuals should not be seen as a key source of investment for you.  We strongly recommend that all companies raising capital on our platform plan to attract 100% of the funds they plan to raise through their own efforts.  Think of Equivesto as an online processing location, not a pool of investors. 

Not sure if Equity Crowdfunding is right for you?

We will set up a ‘Coming Soon’ page for you for free, where you can gather and track community interest before doing any paperwork or spending a dime.
