    StartEngine has the potential to break many barriers. As a computer novice I was able to effectively navigate the process due to its simplicity.

    Tools are easy to use, been on the platform for seven years. Most of the companies once launched due update on status, need to change a extra half point to keep contact information available and easy to access

    *** invested on StartEngine for a number of years and have had few problems that couldnt be resolved. I would recommend them as one of the top platforms for CF startups to invest in. Whether a pro or novice investor you can find accredited and non accredited offers from CF to REG A deals.

    Invested in 3 companies five years ago. No way to get my money back! One company IX water there is no legitimate way to contact and I keep getting e-mails asking me for more money. Not sure how StartEngine screens for legitimate businesses. Cannot recommend using this as an investment tool.

    Hi ****,

    Apologies for the issues you encountered, I would be happy to assist you.


    After a company raises on StartEngine, we provide them with all of their investors' contact information, and they are encouraged to provide recurring updates on their progress and future plans to their investors.


    We emphasize the importance of investor communication to the companies raising on StartEngine, and strongly recommend that they provide updates as frequently as possible. Many companies provide these updates on a quarterly or semi-annual basis. They may send these updates as emails directly to investors or via the "Updates" section of their campaign page, which you would be notified about via email as well.


    If you have not heard from the companies you have invested in, and have questions or concerns about their progress, we recommend reaching out to the company directly via the contact information provided below, or through the "discussion" section of their campaign page.


    The company can be reached directly at:

    StartEngine has empowered small investors to invest in new and small companies as well as some big ones before they go public or participate in their growth while private. It is an excellent investing opportunity on a small or large scale.
