Staax is a social investment platform, which enables peer-to-peer payments in fractional shares of stock.
At Staax, we’re building a social and wealth-generating payment system, which makes investing in stocks as easy as receiving payment from your friends. Our users are able to get paid back by turning their $10 for coffee into AAPL stock, instantly. We’re changing the way consumers access the stock market to allow the everyday person to build long term wealth, in a way they couldn't before. We embed investing into lifestyle, making every transaction a piece of a long-term wealth goal. Our founding team has consulting, finance, web3, and engineering experience at companies like McKinsey & Co., KKR, The White House, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Coinbase, and we believe we are the team to solve this problem, especially since we are our own demographic. In the last year since we began, we've raised funding from Western Union, Techstars, Harlem Capital, Lightspeed, Hustle Fund, and Plug and Play. Micro-transactions are the future of investing! Join us on this journey as we reimagine the way payments are done for millions of people.
