Finlete Funding allows fans to invest in professional athletes’ future earnings through Regulation CF offerings tied to individual Player Agreements.

Finlete Funding works in tandem with its parent company, Finlete, Inc., which supplies administrative services and an online platform to facilitate investor participation.

Through exempt securities offerings, Finlete Funding enables sports fans to invest in the future earnings of athletes by purchasing designated classes of preferred stock tied to individual Player Agreements. The company has launched multiple Regulation CF offerings tied to athletes including Echedry Vargas, Emmanuel Clase, and Leonardo Bernal, among others. Each offering allows the public to invest in a specific athlete’s projected career earnings, democratizing a type of athlete financing that has traditionally been restricted to private, closed-door transactions. This model aims to align fan engagement with financial outcomes by letting supporters share in the potential upside or downside of an athlete’s professional journey.
