Fundable

Fundable, which is part of the Entrepreneurs.co platform, is one of the major crowdfunding platforms, allowing startups (now only registered in the United States) to provide prizes or shares in exchange for investment.

According to the company's website, firms that give prizes earn less money overall (under $50,000) but attract more supporters, and startups that offer equity raise more money from fewer investors.

To succeed with equity fundraising, you'll need all of the characteristics that accredited investors look for, including a track record of growth, a good business strategy, and, if possible, a pitch deck.

Fees: $179 per month during active campaigns instead of a percentage of total funds raised (not including payment processing fees).
