IdeasFundX provides services to enable growing companies to meet investors.
Users of this website may open an account as an “Entrepreneur” (who are wanting to raise min USD 1M
and are looking for
an introduction to potential investors), as an “Investor” (who are accredited individuals or firms
investing at least
USD 100K in a company).
Significant regulatory considerations apply to the capital raising process, and this Agreement sets
forth terms on which
Entrepreneurs interact with Investors through our platform.
COMPANIES-STARTUPS: If you are an Entrepreneur and are looking to raise over USD 1M for your
company, and want to
connect with investors via IdeasFundX, to apply, you upload on https://www.ideasfundx.com/(the
“Site”), information
about your business, including information you consider confidential (see Locked Information, as
defined in Section XIII
(Definitions)) and have to pay a fix fee for the review and application validation:
=>0.1% of the amount of investment you want to raise for this round (excl. tax) with a min of $1000.
Your information is reviewed by the IdeasFundX experts to validate your application and is not
disclosed to the public.
Then to be recommended to relevant investors, you have to become a member of IdeasFundX and pay
=>a membership of $490 per year
When your company is recommended to investors by our algorithms, IdeasFundX provides only generic
information without
disclosing specific information about the company. Only investors who are interested to review the
presentation of the
company get access to confidential information provided by the company on the Site.
For each negotiation between a company and an investor that have started thanks to IdeasFundX, and
that are resulting
into an investment agreement, IdeasFundX takes:
=>a success fees of 4% on the amount of the investment
We also cannot guarantee that there will never be a software bug or a hacker attack that allows
unauthorized viewing of
material or that Investors actually fit within the categories they have identified themselves under.
INVESTORS: The only people who are authorized to create Investor accounts on the Site are
investors with personal or
professional experience in investing in companies at early stage or Series A with a significant
existing portfolio of
investments and investing at least USD 100K in each company. They can register as an individual
investor or a
representative of an investment firm.
Investors must understand the risk of investing in such companies, including the high likelihood of
loss and long period
of illiquidity.
Investors should describe their investment strategy by completing the criteria in their profile on
the site.
So IdeasFunX algorithms will be able to recommendto investors deals matching their investment
strategies. The investor
will pay only for the new deals he/she wants to learn more about.
We do not promise to make introductions to show you all businesses that meet your criteria, nor can
we promise that all
Entrepreneurs we introduce will actually end up in a positive negotiation nor a profitable
investment.
To get recommended deals matching your investment strategy and be referred among the investors in
the IdeasFundX
database, investors have to pay a monthly membership of $20 excl. taxes. IdeasVoice offers a free
trial during the first
6 monthsof membership.
For each notification of new deal, if you are deciding to learn more about the new deal, IdeasFundX
charges a $200 fixed
fee.
For each negotiation between a company and an investor that have started thanks to IdeasFundX, and
that are resulting
into an investment agreement, IdeasFundX takes a success fees of 2% on the amount of the
investment.
