New to crowd-sourced funding?
You can raise up to $5m every 12 months, backed by fans and believers looking to share in your future.
Crowd-sourced funding helps you accelerate the growth of your business with the support and backing of your crowd.
It's a relatively new form of fundraising in Australia that allows startups and small businesses to raise capital from a large number of retail and wholesale investors through an online platform, like Birchal.
Are you eligible to raise?
You’ll need to meet the regulatory requirements, such as being a private or unlisted public company based in Australia with less than $25m in assets and $25m in annual revenue.
Next, you'll need to create a Birchal account to access your company dashboard. There, you'll complete an eligibility form and access other help and resources for getting started.
Our experienced campaign team will also be in touch soon after to guide you on next steps.
