Investing in small businesses just got easier with Pitcholio. Whether you want to support real companies, diversify your investments, or participate in private markets, Pitcholio is here to help. Getting started is quick and simple.

Follow these 5 easy steps to begin your journey into small business investing.

Step 1: Create Your Account

The first step is creating your Pitcholio account. You can sign up using your email address or phone number in just a few moments.

Pro Tip: Use a secure password and enable any available security features to help protect your account.

Step 2: Verify Your Identity

Because Pitcholio operates in a regulated financial environment, we need to verify your identity before you can invest.

This helps protect both investors and businesses and ensures the platform meets regulatory requirements.

Why This Matters: Identity verification keeps the platform safe, compliant, and trustworthy for everyone.

Step 3: Browse Available Businesses

Once your account is set up, you can explore businesses that are currently raising capital.

Browse by industry, location, or raise type to find opportunities that match your interests.

What You Get: Clear business profiles that explain what the business does, how much it’s raising, and how investors are compensated.

Step 4: Choose an Investment

When you find a business you believe in, choose how much you want to invest and review the terms.

You’ll see whether the business offers equity, revenue participation, or both — and what that means for you.

Bonus: You can start with smaller amounts and build your portfolio over time.

Step 5: Track Your Portfolio

After you invest, your portfolio dashboard lets you track all your investments in one place.

You can follow business updates, monitor performance, and view any payments or distributions you receive.

Tip: Use your dashboard to stay informed and decide when to reinvest in new opportunities.
