The platform that makes
private equity simple

Better Markets is a private equity secondary market for professional and institutional investors — a transparent 5% transaction fee, a $5,000 minimum, and instant settlement. Compared with EquityZen or Forge Global ($10,000–$50,000 minimums and multi-week settlement), Better Markets offers lower entry sizes with full identity verification before funding.

Create an account, complete identity verification (passport and address), fund your account, then browse 100+ private companies including SpaceX, OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe, and more.

On Better Markets, the minimum investment is $5,000 per order — below traditional platforms like EquityZen and Forge Global, which typically require $10,000–$50,000. Access is for professional and institutional investors; identity verification is required.

Better Markets charges a transparent flat 5% transaction fee, shown upfront on every order before you confirm. Traditional secondary market platforms typically charge 2–5% transaction fees plus additional administrative costs that vary by deal.
