Working with the Vested team was a Pleasure!!
Working with the Vested team was a wonderful experience. The trade was executed swiftly and the entire interaction with the staff at Vested was really helpful. I needed liquidity and this platform provided me with the necessary capital to achieve my objective. Bravo to Dave and the entire staff at Vested.
Misleading, Timewasters
This company reached out to ME, (not the other way around), saying that I should inquire about their funding because I company I used to work for had given me some equity. They informed me that 32 other people from that company had already reached out, so I figured it was worth a shot.
I went through all the due diligence and provided all the documentation they asked for, only to be told that they don't actually have any ability to fund from that former company.
They knew where I worked and still reached out. This is an incredible waste of time, and tells me these people purposely mislead, just to satisfy a quota.
I wouldn't trust them with my equity.

Extremely positive experience
Extremely positive experience. Quick underwriting and fair offer that helped me obtain equity.
Great Experience All Around!
I had a great experience working with Bobby and the team. Their communication was clear and transparent throughout the entire process, and everything moved quickly while still feeling thoughtful and well-organized. What can often feel like a complicated process was handled incredibly smoothly from start to finish.
I’d highly recommend Bobby to anyone looking to diversify their investments or capitalize on the hard work they’ve put into building equity in a private company.
Professional and Responsive Team
Vested was professional and great to work with throughout the process. Communication was clear, and everything moved forward smoothly. It was a very positive experience.
I had a great experience
I had a great experience working with Vested. Chad was such a gem, he always responded promptly and helped guide me through the process of obtaining funding and executing all of my options. I would have had to leave options on the table if I was doing this solo.
Time wasters
They kept me waiting for a long time only to come back and say my stock option valuation was too high for their funding. If funding is limited, set clear limits from the beginning rather than wasting users’ time.

Vested is a lifesaver
Vested is a lifesaver!
They not only quickly calculated the value of cash needed, moved the money over, I executed my options and we were good to go! The easiest FS process I've ever experienced. I wish everything was this simple.
WOW, Awesome service!
WOW! Super easy. Vested is absolutely kick ass. I worked hard for YEARS and was going to have to walk away with nothing to show for it, Vested put money in my pocket AND I still got to keep a surprising number of shares. Would use them again any time in a heartbeat. Thanks specifically to Chad for helping me get the process done under the wire. SO amazing to be able to get something from what I earned with ZERO up front.
Amazing team!
Bobby was amazing to work with! I had a very short window to exercise my options and he was able to turn everything around for me in a matter of 48 hours. I can't recommend them highly enough!
Vested was on the ball
Vested was on the ball. They reached out to me and were extremely clear on what the process would look like. They communicated next steps extremely well. When there was a need to expedite specific steps, Vested took care of everything. While I was not aware of such a service, Chad and his team guided me through and made this very new possibility, very real.

Had a great experience working with Vested (Bobby/Peter) on my pre-IPO options purchase. From the first email to the wire transfer, everything was wrapped up in just 48 hours! Honestly, I wasn’t sure how smooth it would be, especially since it’s a small startup in a pretty niche space. But their questions were spot-on, the process was super transparent, and they moved fast. Definitely recommend them if you’re looking for a hassle-free way to handle your options!

It was a really easy transaction. They are great people to work with and it allowed me to retain some equity without a large outlay of cash and that was the whole point.
Highly recommended!

Bobby reached out promptly after I signed up on vested.co. He walked me through the entire process, and answered my questions quickly. Instructions were very easy to follow and deal closed in less than a week. Terms were very equitable/fair (IMO). I'd definitely recommend them to a friend!
