How to create a successful crowdfunding platform?

Design and usability

A crowdfunding platform is a financial tool in the first place, so in addition to an appealing interface, it should convey the proper message that your audience can relate to and give the feeling of trustworthiness.

Green energy and real estate crowdfunding platforms will have totally different looks with individual visual triggers, so it’s crucial to get to know your potential clients in detail.

Investor categorisation

Most financial regulators require investors to be clearly categorised based on their experience and investing capacity:

  • high-net-worth individuals
  • professional investors
  • self-certified sophisticated investors
  • retail investors

This helps not only comply with the regulatory requirements but onboard investors more efficiently and protect your business by knowing who exactly you are dealing with.

Automated investment & crowdfunding flows

Automation is what gives your crowdfunding platform a competitive edge and reduces overhead for tasks that are usually handled manually:

  • customer verification;
  • client status update;
  • repayments;
  • wallet top-up;
  • withdrawal of funds.

These and other processes happen under the hood and require only minimal intervention from investors, borrowers, or a platform manager.

Back-office management

A back-office is the heart of a crowdfunding platform. Everything that happens on the platform automatically reflects in the back-office and can be managed, adjusted and analysed:

  • investor and borrower onboarding;
  • new campaigns or campaign applications;
  • suspicious activities;
  • failed client verifications;
  • successfully funded campaigns;
  • wallet top-up or repayments.

Besides, a platform admin should be able to easily find any user, manage access permissions of each staff member, configure security settings or create investments on behalf of investors if needed.

External services

Creating custom functionality may not be always possible due to budget or timeline restrictions. Besides, there are lots of services that have polished their functionality and allow integrating it in your crowdfunding platform via an API:

  • payment gateways;
  • CRMs;
  • accounting tools;
  • SMS services;
  • analytics and BI;
  • KYC and AML providers;
  • reporting services;
  • credit scoring systems.

Defining unique business flows

The way you manage investors or prefer monitoring crowdfunding campaigns may be different from how the other crowdfunding platform do it. We will make sure to document all specific paths and user stories that reflect your business idea.
