Set-up was a breeze - some basic information and a few clicks and I was all set. The rate of return on your investment is a no-brainer; I can't get that on any savings account, CD, etc. I logged in... See more

5% rate of return with occasonal promotional bonuses - income investing has never been easier. Sure beats CDs! What's not to like? Plus I feel like I'm doing good. This operation is very easy and pleasant to deal with.

Excellent Company - Great GUI

I have purchased a $1,000 three-year promissory note with a 5% per annum interest rate. The purchase itself was very easy. The website's interface gives one basically three options 1) buy a note 2) redeem a note and 3) review legal documents.

The investment agreement states that each note is a security under Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933 and you can read the filing on the SEC's Edgar website. When I read the filing it noted that the directors and officers owned some $400k+ of these securities themselves. So, they are putting their money where their advertising is.

In general, this would seem to be a fine investment for a small portion of a fixed income portfolio. Since this is a Regulation A security that is not registered with the SEC (Reg. A is an exemption to registration) these promissory notes cannot be leveraged (you cannot use them as collateral to borrow money - for instance).

In a few years, I will update with how things go for withdraws if I decide to do that. Until then, I strongly recommend this company to anyone.

Street Shares

I just started investing with Street Shares. I really like their business model and their target of assisting Veteran small businesses. I am not a Veteran myself, but an investment vehicle where I can get a good return and help out Veterans is a win - win opportunity.

I have recommended this organizaton to several other investors. While Ihave not seen reesults yet, it seems like a good logical cause to invest and help verterans at the same time. Looking forward to reasonable returns and good results.

Excellent service

Excellent service, excellent product for a small business with a 'peaks and valleys' cash flow. And their veterans focus is very much appreciated.

Of all the companies out there in this space, I found StreetShares to be the easiest to work with. I uploaded a few documents to their site, linked a few accounts and before I knew it I had a line of credit for $100k. Very easy, quick and impressive!

After giving all my info

After giving all my info, I NEVER received a call with a status on the application. Finally, I call them to see if I "qualified," for a loan. The guy looks up my application or whatever and then asks how much do I make a year personally, apparently you have to make at least $25,000 a year, to qualify for a loan. I asked him, well, that's not what is advertised- what streetshares advertised is, if you have bad credit you still can qualify for a loan." The only thing he says is, "sorry we can't go any further." They didn't offer any assistance whatsoever, and a lot of the reviews online are fake. The guy didn't give me two minutes before telling me there was nothing he could do. Bad service, bad company and bad advertisement.
