How It Works for Companies

Apply & Get Approved

  • Submit your company application — share basics like business summary, sector, and funding needs.
  • Our team conducts a preliminary review, including legal and financial due diligence, to confirm eligibility and fit.
  • Approved companies proceed to campaign creation and onboarding.

Build Your Funding Campaign

  • Set key parameters — including funding goal (minimum & maximum), valuation, and equity allocation.
  • Upload essential documents — pitch deck, business plan, cap table, governance structure, and financials.
  • Choose model & timing — decide between “all-or-nothing” vs. “flexible funding” and schedule campaign dates.

Campaign Launch & Investor Engagement

  • Go live on Pepins — your campaign becomes visible to our community of private and institutional investors.
  • Interact directly — investors can ask questions via Q&A tools, helping build trust and dialogue.
  • Gain visibility — Pepins features your campaign across newsletters, social media, and targeted investor outreach.

Secure Investment Online

  • Investor commitments are fully digital — no paper agreements or manual processes.
  • Monitor progress — track live subscriptions and commitments in real time.
  • Hit your goal — If funding reaches your minimum target (all-or-nothing), funds are captured; for flexible models, you receive all amounts committed.

Close & Issue Equity

  • Finalize agreements — digital signatures confirm investments and shareholder terms.
  • Distribute shares — investors are allocated equity via nominee structures or direct placement, all recorded in your share ledger.
  • Receive funds — after closing, capital is transferred to your account for immediate use.

Support, Compliance & Ongoing Engagement

  • Regulatory compliance — Pepins ensures all campaigns meet ECSP and EU financial regulations.
  • Post-campaign support — access tools to host Stakeholder Clubs, publish updates, and engage your new investors.
  • Optional liquidity path — choose to enable secondary trading via Pepins Market to provide early exits and enhance investor trust.
