The communication that the StartEngine offers is reassuring. My niece introduces me to StartEngine I was a little intimidated however they walked me through my investment and stayed in communication with me until my investment was cleared and excepted. Thank you StartEngine

I found it to be easy to purchase the shares, making an investment that otherwise would have not been saught after, but because everything was laid out on one page; quantity per share, progress and options, it's a great choice for now.

I have limited experience at this point as this is my first time using StartEngine for an investment and investing period. My experience so far has been only positive. I would hope that this will continue.

StartEngine provides investors an opportunity to invest in early-stage start-ups. What this means is that you are often investing in early stage companies. Investments in these types of companies are risky by their nature, and many often fail without any element of fraud or misconduct. As we try to remind you in various places throughout the website, including in the educational materials which all users agree to when creating an account, the universal website footer, and every investment agreement used in conjunction with any offering on our platform, these investments are speculative, illiquid, and involve a high degree of risk including the possible loss of your entire investment. Even if a company is successful, it takes some time, often years, before an investor can have an opportunity to realize any returns on these types of investments. While we wish all the companies who raise our platform the best of success, we also encourage investors to remember when making any investments through the platform that all investments are speculative, illiquid, and involve a high degree of risk including the possible loss of your entire investment, and to take this risk under consideration and invest responsibly.
