StartEngine Reviews

StartEngine is one of the largest crowdfunding investment platforms, using Reg CF and Reg A (as well as Reg D for some side-by-side offerings) to bring startup investments to anyone, in some cases for as little as $ 100. There is a large selection to choose from, covering a wide range of industries, from fashion to healthcare to electric vehicles. However, investors should be aware that the deductible is very limited, so the quality of the investments can vary widely depending on the offers available.
