We thought we'd share our most popular question of the week! Question: I invested now, what now? Answer: Congrats! Whether this is your first time investing or you're an experienced investor, we know it is exciting to submit an investment. The big question that many of you have is "what now"? Once your investment status has moved tocleared, this means the funds have passed all of the necessary financial and regulatory checks and they are waiting to be moved into the issuing company’s account. Once the offering has hit the necessary requriements to disburse funds, your status will move to invested. This means that the funds have been disbrused to the company you invested in.  When the live offering closes, you will receive a confirmation email from the company with details of your investment. Your shares are owned as "book-entry." This is how most stocks are issued today and it means that you don’t get a physical stock certificate; instead, shares are held via electronic record by the issuing company’s transfer agent.The benefits of electronic book-entry is to minimize the costs and problems of lost or missing certificates, which can be overwhelming for companies to manage.
