*Investing in Reg CF securities includes financial risks, including loss of money invested. All estimated returns on principal + interest are not guaranteed. This statement is based on the following assumptions: 1) an offering successfully closes and an investor is allocated a Bond or Bonds, 2) that the investor holds their Bonds to maturity and 3) that there are no defaults made by the issuer on any of the Bond payments from issuance to maturity.

“SMBX gives investors the opportunity to invest in the local small businesses that they love. It’s kind of a win-win situation when you get to invest in your community and make a passive income while you do it.”
-MoneyMade
"SMBX allows consumers (who are also investors) to support the companies that they believe in. They can also now engage with the company in a whole new way because they are now, in effect, a business partner."
- Chris Markoch, Entrepreneur
"“The fact that it’s going to make me some money makes it a lot easier to [invest on SMBX than it] would have been investing elsewhere, whether an index fund or real estate venture.”
