FundedByMe Finland OY

What FundedByMe Finland OY does

FundedByMe Finland OY operates the FundedByMe platform, a Nordic-focused digital marketplace that connects growth-stage companies seeking capital with retail investors. Companies create profiles containing pitch decks, financial summaries, and funding goals (capped at GBP 74,000), and the platform publishes these presentations for browsing by its registered investor base of 300,000+ users across Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, and Iceland. FundedByMe deliberately does not broker capital or act as an intermediary: investor contact is always direct with the issuing company, which allows the business to operate without financial regulatory authorization.

The underlying technology is a web-based SaaS platform with self-serve registration, Stripe-based payment processing, social login via Google and Apple, and an enhanced company profile view that displays up to five years of financial data. In 2026 the platform integrated EQTOS AI for automated company sourcing and added AI-driven investor matching, ICP Radar, and Pulse for real-time registry and news retrieval. The product surface includes a START subscription tier (GBP 100/month) for marketplace visibility and a one-time BOOST service (GBP 50) for exclusive email broadcast to all registered investors.

Commercially, the business completed a full turnaround from a staff-intensive model into a lean, automated SaaS structure with recurring subscription revenue. The platform currently lists 480+ companies and reports GBP 111 million in presented capital. Forward strategy centers on implementing the platform into PAYZINOS Ltd on the London Stock Exchange Main Market to scale across Europe, with white-label and API licensing to fintech and institutional partners as additional revenue vectors.

Core offering

FundedByMe Finland OY operates a European digital platform where growth companies create profiles with descriptions, pitch decks, and funding goals, and present themselves directly to a network of 300,000+ registered investors across the Nordics. The platform is solely a presentation venue — FundedByMe never brokers capital, acts as intermediary, or provides financial advice; investors always contact company management directly. Revenue is generated from monthly company subscriptions (START at £100/month) and one-time premium email broadcasts (BOOST at £50).

Product overview

FundedByMe is a platform for company presentations connecting growth companies with European investors. The core product is the FundedByMe Platform, which enables companies to create profiles and reach 250,000+ investors. Two service tiers are offered: the START Plan at £100/month for basic marketplace visibility, and the BOOST/PREMIUM email broadcast add-on at £50 one-time for exclusive direct outreach to all platform investors. The platform does not broker capital—investor contact is always direct between the investor and the company.

Regional players

• Wefunder: Leading US equity-crowdfunding platform operating under Regulation Crowdfunding. Comparable marketplace mechanics (companies present, retail investors invest directly) but serves a US-centric market with different regulatory regime.
• Dealmatrix: Nordic investment marketplace for unlisted growth companies. Direct regional overlap with FundedByMe, both focused on connecting Nordic growth companies with private investors through digital profiles.

Direct peers

• Seedrs (Republic Europe): Europe's largest equity-crowdfunding platform (acquired by Republic), offering end-to-end investment execution with nominee structure and FCA authorization. Directly comparable to FundedByMe as both target growth companies seeking retail capital across Europe, though Seedrs is a full-stack regulated intermediary versus FundedByMe's pure-presentation model.
• Invesdor: Nordic and Baltic equity-crowdfunding platform operating across Finland, Sweden, Denmark, and the Baltics with regulated authorization. Direct geographic and product overlap with FundedByMe, both targeting growth companies in the same Nordic capital markets.
• Companisto: Germany-headquartered equity-crowdfunding platform serving growth companies with a large European investor community. Comparable as a regional equity-crowdfunding peer in Continental Europe with similar marketplace dynamics.
• Crowdcube: UK-headquartered equity-crowdfunding platform with FCA authorization, secondary market, and a large European investor base. Closely comparable to FundedByMe in serving growth companies raising from retail investors, differing in operating as a fully regulated broker-dealer.

Broad incumbents

• Republic: Multi-product US investment platform spanning equity, revenue-sharing, and crypto with Reg CF/A+ offerings. Broader incumbent offering investment execution plus secondary trading — a US analog of where full-stack European platforms (Seedrs, Crowdcube) are heading.

Others

• Crunchbase: Private-company data and intelligence platform used by companies and investors for sourcing, market research, and deal discovery. Not a direct competitor in fundraising execution, but a complementary platform serving the same companies and investors as FundedByMe.

Emerging players

• Seedblink: European tech-focused equity-crowdfunding platform operating in CEE and Western Europe. Comparable in target segment (tech growth companies) and investor-marketplace model, though with a narrower geographic and sector focus than FundedByMe.
• Spheriq: European private-investment marketplace supporting secondary transactions in private company shares. Adjacent competitor in the Nordic/European private-investor marketplace category, focused on liquidity rather than primary issuance.
