In Final Hours of Reg CF Offering, Rocket Dollar Tops $400,000 on Republic

Rocket Dollar is nearing the end of a securities offering on Republic and with less than 2 days in the offering, the Fintech has topped $400,000 on the crowdfunding platform.

Rocket Dollar is a Fintech that helps to match investors with alternative finance offerings. The platform notes that most investors are not aware that alternative assets may be held in a 401(k) or IRA (retirement accounts). Rocket Dollar allows its users to create a self-directed retirement account while facilitating investments in things like real estate or private equity.

Currently, Rocket  Dollar offers two types of accounts; the Self-Directed Solo 401(k) (launched in March 2018), and the Self-Directed IRA (launched in June 2018). Both accounts are available in Traditional (pre-tax contributions) or ROTH (post-tax contributions). The target market is individuals that don’t want to just invest in pre-defined mutual funds or stocks and bonds.

As it stands today, over 800 users have signed up and total assets under administration stands at about $80 million.

To date, Rocket Dollar has raised $3.7 million in a combination of founder’s and Executive Team investments ($355,850) and outside angel investors and institutions. Investors in this offering are receiving a “Crowd-SAFE”  with a valuation cap of $20 million.

The company was founded by Henry Yoshida who previously founded Honest Dollar (a Robo-advisor) that was acquired by Goldman Sachs.
