Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from investors.
The minimum investment varies by offering but typically starts at $100. Each Creator sets their own minimum investment amount.
Under Regulation CF, investment limits depend on your income and net worth. If either is less than $124,000, you can invest up to $2,500 or 5% of the greater amount. If both exceed $124,000, you can invest up to 10% annually across all Reg CF offerings.
Distributions are paid monthly based on the Creator's YouTube revenue performance. Payments are deposited directly into your GigaStar account and can be withdrawn or reinvested.
Yes. The GigaStar Secondary Market is open at gigastartrading.io, allowing you to buy and sell CRTs with other Investors on an SEC-regulated Alternative Trading System operated by GigaStar Securities LLC. Trades require a willing counterparty, so liquidity is not guaranteed and prices may be above or below your original purchase price.
If a Creator stops producing content, your distributions would decrease or stop. This is a key risk factor—Creator performance directly impacts returns. Always review risk disclosures.
