The instruments

There Are Two Ways to Invest

Both methods are first class on FAME — choose the one that best matches your goals.

Debt Notes

Fixed monthly payments of principal and interest over the loan term — all under a fully amortized schedule. Best for investors who want a predictable, scheduled return.

Example Ratee.g. 6–12% APR

Revenue Sharing

Receive a percentage of the business's monthly revenue until you reach your return cap. Payments flex with performance — you grow when they grow.

Example Cape.g. 1.2–1.5×

Every business sets its own terms. The interest rates and return caps above are examples of what you’ll commonly see on FAME — not a FAME-set rate, and not a guarantee. Each raise lists its own numbers, and you review them before you invest.

Risk Disclosure

Mandatory risk acknowledgment before every investment ensures informed decisions.

FAME Certified

Growing businesses upload real financials, and our team audits every one before certification.

Regional Power

Diversify your portfolio with the beloved businesses you interact with in your very own community.
