Seedrs Feature Any Investor Should Know About: Referral Program, Secondary Market
Word-of-mouth referrals is what makes crowdfunding work. Incentivising others to help spread the word about a crowdfunding campaign enables equity issuers to tap into a much broader network than they would otherwise have access to, and Seedrs does it best by far. Essentially, the referral scheme on Seedrs is this: once someone signs up to Seedrs, they can get their own referral code. Then the recipient can invite someone else to join Seedrs and supply the referee with the code. This way both investment project participants receive £25 in investment credit via the referral code, provided the referral invests £150 in their first 30 days.
I recommend you to follow this link and get right into it. Referral programme on Seedrs is a wonderful opportunity to network and raise your social profile in circles you consider close in spirit and relevant in your portfolio-building strategy. Not to mention a great way of spreading the good word on an investment project you’re involved in.
Another great advantage Seedrs offers to investors is its Secondary Market. Seedrs started its secondary market two and a half years ago. Since then this highly authoritative trading forum became open to all investors whether previous shareholders or not, showing a 300% increase in trading activity.
The demand for a fully functioning secondary market is massive. Once the shares are listed on the Seedrs Secondary market, investors who missed out on the initial funding round may use the Seedrs trading platform to get in, and acquire shares they’re after (here’s a handy link to Seedrs’ own resources providing invaluable insights in the world of secondary trading).
