Getting started

What is KoreIssuance?
KoreIssuance is an all-in-one platform from KoreInside for running a compliant private capital raise in the United States. It covers the full offering lifecycle — pre-raise readiness, live offering management and post-raise shareholder obligations — under Regulation CF, Regulation A+, Regulation D and Regulation S, on one shared record instead of disconnected spreadsheets and portals.
Who is KoreIssuance built for?
Three audiences: companies raising capital, securities lawyers who prepare and file the offering, and auditors and accountants who need clean, verifiable records. Each gets a view of the same underlying data, so the cap table a lawyer reviews is the same one the auditor tests and the issuer reports from.
How long does it take to launch an offering?
Timing depends on the exemption and how prepared the company is. A Regulation D 506(c) offering can go live in weeks once corporate records and disclosures are ready. Regulation CF typically takes longer because of the Form C and reviewed financials. Regulation A+ takes the longest because the Form 1-A offering circular must be qualified by the SEC. Pre-raise clean-up is usually the biggest variable, not the technology.

Regulations

What is the difference between RegCF, RegA+ and RegD?
Regulation CF lets a company raise from both accredited and non-accredited investors up to an annual cap through a registered funding portal or broker-dealer. Regulation A+ is a qualified public offering with much higher limits, ongoing reporting and broad investor eligibility. Regulation D is a private placement — no SEC qualification, but generally limited to accredited investors, with 506(c) permitting general solicitation when accreditation is verified.
What is Regulation S and when would we use it?
Regulation S is the exemption for offers and sales made outside the United States. Companies commonly pair RegS with a domestic exemption such as RegD so they can accept non-U.S. investors in the same round while keeping the offshore and domestic tranches properly segregated.
Can we run more than one exemption at the same time?
Yes, and many issuers do — for example RegD alongside RegS, or RegCF alongside a RegD side-car for larger accredited cheques. The rules on integration, general solicitation and investor eligibility differ by pair, so the structure should be confirmed with your securities counsel before launch. The platform is built to keep concurrent tranches on separate, auditable records.

Compliance

How does KoreIssuance handle KYC, AML and accreditation?
Investor identity verification, AML screening and accreditation verification run inside the onboarding flow, and the resulting evidence is attached to the investor record permanently. That means the same file supports the subscription agreement, the transfer agent record and any later audit or regulatory request.
Who keeps the cap table and the transfer agent record current?
The platform keeps the cap table, securities ledger and minute book updated as subscriptions close, so the record of ownership reflects reality rather than a spreadsheet reconciled at year end. Corporate actions, transfers and shareholder changes flow into the same record.
What happens after the raise closes?
Post-raise obligations are where most issuers struggle: ongoing reporting, annual filings, shareholder communications, transfers, and keeping the securities ledger accurate. KoreIssuance treats those as part of the same lifecycle rather than a separate project, so the shareholder relationship continues past the close of the round.

Working with advisors

Can our own lawyer and auditor work in the platform?
Yes. Your existing counsel and audit firm can be given access to the records they need. If you do not have advisors in place, the KorePartners network includes securities lawyers, auditors, broker-dealers, transfer agents and marketing firms experienced with JOBS Act offerings.
Does KoreInside mark up KorePartners fees?
No. KorePartners set their own fees and issuers pay them directly, with no upcharge added by KoreInside. The value of the network is vetting and coordination, not a referral margin.

Pricing

What does it cost?
Platform pricing is structured as a one-time onboarding fee plus a monthly platform fee that varies by exemption — see the pricing comparison on the Regulation A+, Regulation CF and Regulation D pages. Third-party costs such as legal, audit, broker-dealer, escrow and marketing are paid directly to those providers.
