ShareFund is software. The boundary of what we provide, and what we don't, is on this page. It is written so a non-lawyer can read it.
ShareFund is a business-to-business software platform. We build, host, and maintain the rails that let an operator run a branded investment offering: the investor frontend, the admin console, the append-only ledger, the settlement engine, the audit log, and the branded transactional email.
We license this platform to operators under a commercial engagement contract, on a setup-fee plus platform-fee basis. That is the entirety of our commercial relationship with an operator. We are a software vendor, in the same plain sense that AWS, Stripe, or Twilio are software vendors to the businesses that build on them.
ShareFund is explicitly not, and does not hold any license or registration to act as:
Our presence in the technology stack of an operator's offering does not constitute endorsement, vetting, approval, or due diligence of that offering by ShareFund.
Operators bring their own custody. The platform integrates with whatever the operator chooses to use to hold investor funds, examples include:
In every case the operator holds the signing keys, the merchant-account credentials, the processor login, and the legal relationship with that custody provider. ShareFund's software calls the operator's chosen custody to display balance and to facilitate operator-initiated payouts; we do not hold, move, or co-sign funds on the operator's behalf, and we do not have the operational ability to redirect funds away from the operator.
ShareFund's revenue is the setup fee and the platform fee charged to the operator for the software. We do not take a percentage of investor deposits, do not earn from movement of investor funds, and do not act as an intermediary between investors and operators.
The platform enforces certain accounting invariants inside the tenant database it controls. These do not extend to verification of the operator's underlying real-world business.
The platform is a record-keeping system, not a forensic auditor. Operators control what data they enter. Our job is to make that data tamper-evident, not to make it true.
By using ShareFund, an operator accepts sole responsibility for:
If you are an investor evaluating an offering on an operator's tenant, the following are your responsibility, not ShareFund's:
If you believe an operator using the ShareFund platform is engaged in fraud, misrepresentation, or other unlawful conduct, do all of the following:
Note that ending an operator's platform access does not recover investor funds, since the funds are held by the operator's own custody and not by ShareFund. Recovery, if it is possible, is a matter between the investor, the operator, the operator's custody provider, and the relevant authorities.
ShareFund is provided to operators "as is" without warranty of any kind, beyond what is specifically agreed in an engagement contract. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our aggregate liability to any operator or investor arising out of or relating to the platform is limited to the platform fees the operator has paid to ShareFund in the twelve months preceding the claim. The detailed contractual limits are in the operator-side Terms of Service.
Any return ranges, performance examples, or screenshots shown on this marketing site, or on an operator's tenant, are illustrative. Past performance does not predict future performance. The platform does not allow any operator to display guaranteed-return language; if you see such language on an operator's site, it is contrary to our policy and you should report it.
This disclaimer may be revised as the platform evolves. Material revisions will be announced here with an effective date. The most current version always lives at this URL.
Last updated, May 2026. Operator contact information will be added at launch.
If you are an operator and you have read this disclaimer carefully and you still want to run a serious offering, we want to talk.
