Activity

Identifying the single broker-dealer that has “raised the most capital by means of crowdfunding” can be tricky because the landscape involves both funding portals and broker-dealers, and often platforms combine activities under different regulations (Regulation CF, Regulation A+, etc.).
However, based on recent data from 2024, DealMaker Securities appears to be a clear leader in terms of combined investment volume for Regulation CF and Regulation A+ crowdfunding. They reported a commanding total of $172.1 million raised in 2024.
Other prominent platforms and broker-dealers that have raised significant capital through crowdfunding include:
* StartEngine: $117.8 million (combined Reg CF + Reg A+ in 2024)
* Wefunder: $99.4 million (primarily Reg CF in 2024)
* Dalmore Group: $54.2 million (combined Reg CF + Reg A+ in 2024)
* Republic: Also a major player, with a family of companies that have deployed over $170 million since 2016.
It’s important to note that some of these platforms operate as “funding portals” (specifically for Reg CF) while others are registered broker-dealers that can handle a wider range of offerings, including Reg A+. Many platforms also offer a combination of these services.
