Wefunder

Online crowdfunding service that allows individual investors to invest in startup companies. It leverages a provision in the 2012 JOBS Act, which permits unaccredited investors to purchase equity in early-stage private companies, differentiating it from platforms like Kickstarter or Indiegogo where backers typically receive products or perks instead of equity. Wefunder primarily targets individual investors interested in gaining equity in startups and early-stage companies.
