Company create project form

Let's describe the fields one by one:

General Information​

  • Name: The name of the project
  • Token: The Stellar token required by the project by which the investors will have to send their transfers. At the moment, this app accepts the USDC and EURC tokens deployed on Soroban Testnet.
  • Project Address: The Stellar Address where the company will receive the withdrawals. If the company request a withdrawal to start its project, the transfer will be sent to that address.
  • Return type: It is the way by which the investors will receive the capital gains. The are two elegible ways:
    • Coupon: It works in the same way as a Treasury bond coupon: you receive interest payments every month, and in the final month, you receive both the last interest payment and the principal amount.
    • Reverse Loan: The capital contributed plus the interests is divided by the number of months during which payments will be made and that amount is sent to the investor each month.

Financial Information​

  • Fundraising objective: Fundraising goal set by the company.
  • Rate: The interest rate that the company offers to the investors.

At this point, it is essential to clarify how the interest received by investors is calculated. For instance, if an investor contributes $1,000 and the company offers an interest rate of 5%, the investor will receive a total of $1,050 based on one of the payment strategies outlined in the 'Return Rate' section. It is important to note that this is not annualized interest; rather, it is calculated solely based on the initial capital and the interest rate.

  • Minimum per investing: The minimum capital to be able to invest
  • Claim months: The length of time (in months) during which the investment will remain locked. After this time, payments will begin to be issued to investors.

The duration of the lock-up period should be correlated with the interest rate. Specifically, if the company establishes a longer lock-up period before distributing profits to investors, the interest rate offered should be correspondingly higher to incentivize investors to commit their capital.

  • Return months: The number of months over which profits will be distributed to investors once the lock-up period has ended.

Description and Details​

  • Short description: A short description of 2 or 3 lines. It will be displayed to the investor in the list of projects in which they can invest.
  • Large description: A large description of 5 or 6 lines. It will be displayed to the investor after it clicks on the project to explore more information.

Project File​

A Pdf file with the project memory and documentation. This file will be used by the platform administrators to decide to approve or reject the project.
