GetEquity API empowers businesses to offer private investments, particularly startup equity, to their customers and clients. With our API, businesses can streamline the process of managing investments, facilitating transactions, and providing valuable insights into investment opportunities.

​
Welcome

GetEquity API offers a set of endpoints designed to support various aspects of managing private investments for customers. Whether you’re a startup looking to offer equity to your investors or a financial institution seeking to facilitate investment transactions, our API provides the tools you need to succeed.

​
Our API products

GetEquity exposes three products. Which one you build against depends on whether you hold your own regulatory permissions, and whether you are distributing investments or issuing credit.

Investments API · Direct

For regulated entities. You trade as your organisation, keep your own ledger, and attach a customer object to each trade.

Investments API · Managed

For non-regulated intermediaries. GetEquity holds an account — a member — for each of your users, and you act on their behalf.

Credit API

For credit providers. Lend against the investments a GetEquity user already holds, using their portfolio as collateral.

Compare the three side by side.
