Funding & escrow
Where legally and technically possible, investment funds are not transferred directly to the tender holder. They are placed through an approved escrow or controlled-payment arrangement and released against milestones.

Risk management
Fake or fraudulent tenders
KYC and company verification, business-registration (BRELA) checks, tax verification where legally permitted, tender and contract verification, direct confirmation with the procuring entity where possible, and bank-account verification.
Delayed client payments
Every tender file discloses the expected payment period, contract payment terms, project duration and historical payment behaviour where available. An awarded contract does not guarantee immediate payment.
Project execution risk
Contractor experience, previous projects, equipment, personnel, implementation plan, funding gap and existing liabilities all feed the verification review.
Disputes between parties
Agreements must set out responsibilities, profit calculation, payment arrangements, default, termination, dispute resolution and arbitration or court jurisdiction.
Revenue model
- Transaction commission — 1% of successfully facilitated funding.
- Verification & vetting fee — paid by tender holders to review and publish a tender file.
- Investor membership — early access, advanced tender files, priority alerts and portfolio monitoring.
- Success fee — charged on conclusion of a financing transaction.
