Crowd Funding NJ, Inc. (CFNJ) is the first authorized and registered New Jersey Crowd Funding Internet Site Operator (ISO) – commonly referred to as a Portal. We have developed a state-of-the-art Equity Crowd Funding platform that is compliant with New Jersey Crowd Funding Laws and Regulations. Through the Portal we provide a secure fully integrated market place for New Jersey Intra-State Equity Crowd Funding transactions. Registered Issuers (New Jersey companies seeking capital) provide fully compliant Disclosure Packages for Registered Investors (New Jersey residents seeking investments) to review. Investors may then make direct investments in Issuers through the Portal.

CFNJ and its affiliate Crowd Funding Services, Inc. will work with qualified, registered Issuers to provide an appropriate and compliant Disclosure Package for registered Investors to review on the CFNJ Portal. In addition, prospective Investors will have the opportunity to ask questions of the Issuer, thru the Portal, and to review the questions, responses and comments of other prospective Investors in evaluating the attractiveness of a particular Issue. CFNJ processes all investment transactions and documentation through the secure platform of the Portal. All Investor funds are transmitted directly to and processed by the Bank Escrow Account of each Issuer.
