We’re excited to announce a new partnership with CrowdEngine, a powerful tool for selling programmable securities online. This partnership will streamline the process of launching and managing a tokenized security.

Your most important channel for selling a programmable security is the direct sale portal — an Internet site where investors can sign up, get qualified, and purchase securities. After a lot of research, we have concluded the CrowdEngine is one of the best available direct sale portals. They have listed more than $1B worth of deals, and their software is packed with useful features.

Some of the key features include:

  • White label branding
  • KYC, AML, and Accreditation checks
  • Collects Ethereum addresses, so that we can issue tokenized securities
  • Has workflows for accepting USD wires, ACH, BTC, and ETH.
  • Integration with SalesForce or Hubspot CRM, so that you can communicate effectively with your prospective investors
  • Simple affordable pricing.

CrowdEngine supports a combination of offering categories in the United States including Reg. D, Reg. S, Reg. A+, and Reg. CF. Under our multi-channel philosophy, we encourage issuers to take advantage of each of these categories. Their Compliance Engine™ technology adds international sales capability with custom rules for different investor types in different jurisdictions. Their KYC/AML service works for equity or token offerings by whitelisting the BTC or ETH addresses of token purchasers. Learn more at https://crowdengine.com.

Once a token sale is launched, an issuing company needs to manage the security tokens for their full life cycle. Aboveboard’s integrated technology allows you to keep a real-time shareholder registry required to service shareholders and comply with the rules in Delaware and other corporate jurisdictions. The AboveBoard’s registry provides a control panel for the issuer to manage all permissions, communication, trading windows and corporate actions. AboveBoard implemented a multi-sig process that streamlines the handling of important responsibilities like issuing new shares, keeping custody of stock, and distributing stock.
