Exactly how FAME makes money — shown upfront, on every transaction, with no hidden fees. Ever.
2%
Investment transaction fee
Added at checkout when you invest — shown line-by-line before you pay. Example: a $500 investment costs $10.00 in fees, so your card is charged $510.00 and the full $500 goes to work in the business.
$0
Everything else
No account fees. No deposit fees — adding funds to your FAME balance is free (we never fee the same dollar twice). No fees to browse, learn, or hold your investments.
$250
Onboarding fee
One-time, when you sign up to raise on FAME — covers account screening and the FAME certification review of your financials.
6.3%
Success fee
Charged only if your raise succeeds, taken from the total raised at close. Example: a $50,000 raise pays $3,150.00. No success, no fee — and nothing else, ever: repayments flow to your investors with no servicing cut.
Because it's your money. As an SEC Regulation CF funding portal, FAME discloses exactly how it's compensated — and we think knowing what everything costs is part of what makes everyday investing trustworthy. During the pilot, all charges run in test mode.
