Built Into Every Deal

Flat-fee engagement. Directly Listed charges a flat platform fee plus an equity grant at signing — quoted individually for every deal. No percentage-of-raise according to the rules.

eSignature execution. Subscription agreements and engagement letters are executed through Adobe Acrobat Sign with full audit trails.

Payments. Investors' funds are routed directly to the issuer — by card for amounts under $5,000 and by wire or ACH above that.

Issuer-exemption model. Directly Listed is a technology platform; offerings are conducted by issuers in reliance on their own exemptions, with compliance workflows — accreditation, investor limits, KYC — built into the software.

Flat Fee Disclosure

Our SEC-licensed attorneys, listing consultants, and listing advisors are all paid out of the flat fee we charge. There are no separate legal bills—only third-party costs, such as legal opinions, valuation reports, audits, transfer agent and DTC fees, exchange application fees, and any annual exchange fees, which are paid directly by the issuer.

The flat fee is determined by the scope of services provided and your company's stage, along with an equity grant that is likewise set according to your startup's stage and needs. Every deal is quoted individually.
