Stockosaurus

Stockosaurus is a Canadian equity crowdfunding platform that allows residents of British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario to invest in private companies at early stages of development. Investors purchase securities in growth-oriented corporations, many of which intend to pursue listings on Canadian stock exchanges, giving early backers the potential to realize returns in the public market.

Client Challenge

The client needed a modern digital platform that could manage the entire equity crowdfunding process. Unlike standard websites, an investment platform must integrate strict security protocols, user identity verification, and compliance requirements while also providing a user-friendly interface for both issuers and investors.

The challenge included:

 

  • Designing a professional, trustworthy website that reflected the brand’s financial credibility.
  • Implementing user registration, login, and verification flows compliant with securities regulations.
  • Developing a secure backend to handle sensitive user and transaction data.
  •  

Building scalable functionality to support both issuers raising capital and investors purchasing shares.
