FAQ

Pre-IPO means investing in a company before it is listed on a public stock exchange. Historically, this access was mostly available to large funds and venture investors. PIPO opens this stage to retail investors through tokenization.
In many cases, the largest company valuation growth happens before the IPO. Once a company is public, a significant part of that growth may already be priced in.
A security token is a digital token that qualifies as a security under applicable law. It can carry financial rights, such as income distribution rights, equity conversion rights, or other investor entitlements.
If an instrument qualifies as a security, it must be issued and serviced under a securities-compliant legal structure. On PIPO, that wrapper is provided through licensing setup.
When you buy a token on PIPO, you receive a right to claim future equity, not direct share ownership. The SPV holds the underlying shares and the token can be converted under predefined terms.
Before conversion, you do not hold direct shareholder rights like voting rights, dividends, or direct legal ownership. You hold a tradable position with conversion rights defined in the deal terms.
An SPV (Special Purpose Vehicle) is a separate legal entity established for a single deal. It serves as the legal issuer of the token and creates a verifiable legal link between tokens and underlying shares.
Each SPV ring-fences deal assets and liabilities, keeps segregated accounting, and improves transparency through structured reporting and audits. Issues in one deal are isolated from other deals.
Eligibility is determined by KYC/AML checks and geo-gating rules. Only users from supported jurisdictions can access deals.
At launch, the platform does not serve residents of the US, UK, or EU pending separate licensing. The final eligibility matrix is published in the user dashboard.
OTC (Over-The-Counter) trading means participants trade directly rather than through centralized automatic matching. On PIPO, users post buy/sell interests, agree on price, and settlement is completed in USDC with platform facilitation.
OTC enables flexible early liquidity while the platform expands licensing coverage for additional market formats.
Before IPO, token price is market-driven by supply and demand among participants. There is no fixed price: value is discovered through trading activity.
Price is influenced by roadmap milestones, partnerships, fundraising rounds, M&A/IPO expectations, and periodic investor reports.
When a conversion event happens, a conversion window opens. During that period, token holders can exercise the conversion mechanics defined by the deal.
Two standard options apply: convert into real shares or take monetary redemption by default, depending on the event terms.
