I invested in Start Engine in 2022 and I can’t withdraw my funds invested and I don’t get a response. Don’t invest! It’s 2026 and I can’t get my money out.
Response from StartEngineAug 10, 2026
Hi, thank you for flagging this, and we're sorry for the frustration. Investments on StartEngine are in private companies so they can't be withdrawn on demand the way a cash balance could. That said, we want to look into your account and make sure you're getting a response. Please reach out to [email protected] so we can help directly.

I had to join this platform to make the investment. It was far more cumbersome to accomplish than I think it should have been.

Thanks for the honest feedback, Lalo. Sorry the process felt more cumbersome than it should have. We're always working to make investing smoother, and this kind of feedback helps. If something specific tripped you up, we'd love to hear about it at [email protected].
