FAQS

Use your personal referral link and share it with friends. When your friend signs up using your unique referral link, our system will tie that new user sign-up to your account. Referral links will only be valid as long as the promotion is running. Only new users are eligible for referrals.
There is no limit to the amount of invites you can send out, but you can only receive shares for a maximum of 25 successful referrals – i.e. up to 100 shares.
To receive referral shares, your friend must use your unique referral link to open their investment account, no deposit required. Once the account is approved by our Investor Experience team and you sign the subscription agreement, you and your friend will each receive shares of StartEngine.
Once you and your friend have created your accounts, you'll get a confirmation email that your shares are on its way. You'll then receive your shares after StartEngine's next disbursement. This is when we push out all the latest shares issued from our raise - this typically happens once every few weeks. The shares will be provided into both parties’ investment accounts.
If you received stocks through our referral program of $600 or more, it will be reported as miscellaneous income on your StartEngine consolidated 1099. Customers with referral shares valued at less than $600 may not have this reported as miscellaneous income on their StartEngine consolidated 1099. If you sell the shares you receive through our referral program, it will be reported just like any other stock sale in your account.
You should understand that there is currently no active market for these securities. It is possible they may be quoted on StartEngine’s alternative trading system, StartEngine Secondary (the “ATS”) in the future. It is important to know that companies which intend to quote securities on the marketplace are subject to certain requirements which they may or may not be able to satisfy in a timely manner. Even if a security qualifies to trade, there is no guarantee an active trading market for the securities will ever develop, or if developed, be maintained. Further, any security which does trade may also be removed from the marketplace at any time. You should assume that you may not be able to liquidate your security for some time, if ever, or be able to pledge these shares as collateral.
Each promotion will have a different share or selection of shares offered, depending on availability.

The shares issued through this referral program are being issued through a Regulation A (Reg. A+) Tier II offering of securities.

This Reg A+ offering is made available through StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc. No broker-dealer or intermediary involved in offering except for Florida, where Dalmore Group LLC is participating as broker-dealer of record. This investment is speculative, illiquid, and involves a high degree of risk, including the possible entire loss of value. See the most recent supplement, offering circular and risks related related to this offering for more information. Kevin O’Leary is a paid spokesperson for StartEngine. Read the 17-b disclosure here
