It costs $0 to list
You can create a profile, build your offering page, and prepare your entire raise for free. FILM.FUND only gets paid if you successfully raise capital — our incentives are aligned with yours.
The 5% success fee
When your raise closes successfully, 5% of the funds raised is withheld at closing from the proceeds before disbursement. There is no invoice, no separate payment — it is deducted automatically at close. If your raise misses its minimum, every investor is refunded in full and you owe nothing.
Annual administration fee
After a successful raise, an annual administration fee applies: the lesser of $1,000 per year or 0.5% of the amount raised.
- Investor relations & communications tooling
- Annual tax forms (K-1s / 1099s where applicable)
- Distribution processing to all unitholders
- Cap table administration
- SPV administration and regulatory upkeep
