Investors: you pay the company. Not StateCF. Offerings are limited to Florida residents.
How it works
StateCF: Compliant Capital for Florida Companies & Investors
StateCF gives Florida companies the tools to conduct their own offerings to Florida residents under Chapter 517, Florida Statutes. The company runs its raise; StateCF does not find, introduce or meet investors. Capital readiness is paramount: for companies and investors alike, success begins with compliance.

- 2Make an Informed Decision: Review the offering materials, financials and company profile in the presentation room.
- 3Commit Your Investment: Subscribe through the checkout; funds go to the Florida depository named by the company.
- 4Offer Closes: Once the target is met and the period ends, your subscription is finalized.
- 5Become a Shareholder: A digital certificate is issued on the company's cap table.

- 3Present Your Company: Use the presentation room, videos and your own live conferences to present the company to people you know and to Florida residents who find your listing.
- 4Manage Engagement: Compliant investor emails, discussion replies and material-change notices from one place.

Advanced Platform Features for Seamless Fundraising & Investing
Investor Qualification
Every investor confirms Florida residency and self-certifies their income and net-worth bracket before subscribing. Accredited status can be supported with an in-house verification file. Companies know every subscriber has confirmed Florida residency; investors get a compliant environment.
Offering Compliance
Companies track every interaction with offering and investment documents, and investors have a record of what they received and when. The dashboard keeps timestamped records for document delivery and the three-business-day disclosure rule.
Secure Document Archiving
Every offering-related document and report is stored and backed up. Companies and investors reach their records through their own StateCF account.
Live Investor Engagement
Real-time communication between investors and the company through scheduled live video conferences and the discussion board. Sessions are logged for compliance.
Granular Administrative Controls
Companies set privileges for officers and directors who help manage the offering information. Every change is written to the change history.
Automated Communication
Companies see investor activity as it happens and can send compliant investor emails and material-change notices from the portal. Investors get timely updates and a recorded communication history.
Security & Trust: Our Commitment to Your Protection
Robust Data Security
Information travels over TLS and is stored with access checks on every file.
Managed Firewall Protection
The hosting environment is protected by managed firewalls and monitoring.
Dedicated Support
The StateCF team is available to answer questions from investors and companies.
Disaster Recovery
Regular database backups and a documented restore procedure keep records intact.
Simplified Capital Formation Process
Selling ownership under the Florida Invest Local Act lets a company raise capital from Florida residents online, with lighter regulatory cost than a federal offering and the Florida-only limit that comes with it. StateCF's workflow keeps both sides on the compliant path.
Step 1: Prepare Your Offering / Explore Opportunities
Companies compile the essentials: pitch deck, business plan, financials and formation documents, and complete the capital-readiness application. Investors see a transparent offering that is ready for review.
Step 2: Define & Refine Strategy / Review & Understand
Companies set the fundraising goal, share price and offering structure within the Chapter 517 limits and prepare the disclosure statement for the OFR notice. Investors benefit from a well-structured, compliant offering.
Step 3: Go Live / Subscribe
After StateCF review and the company's OFR notice, the tombstone and presentation room go live. Florida investors complete education, confirm residency and subscribe through the two-screen checkout.
Step 4: Close / Become a Shareholder
When the disclosed target is met, the depository releases funds to the company and digital certificates are issued on the cap table. If the target is not met by the deadline, the depository returns every dollar.
