Company Details
A Fig is a curated platform for funding and developing games with the direct support of passionate players. Fig's platform brings together rewards-based crowdfunding and investing (equity and debt) to create a more balanced and sustainable approach to game development. By launching a Fig campaign, game studios can combine these two methods of raising funds while retaining creative control and offering fans new ways to get involved. By supporting a campaign, fans journey with each studio as they go from development to launch (and beyond), all while gaining real insights and transparency into the business of making games. The securities offerings posted on this site are only available to accredited investors while anyone can support reward-based campaign. Fig’s fee for successful campaigns is 5% of rewards-based funds. While Fig does not collect fees for invested funds, depending on the specific deal terms Fig may collect a 5% fee of game sales. There are no fees if a campaign does not meet its goal.
