Funding Transparency Platform
Every Entrepreneur's Funding Story Deserves to Be Heard
South Africa's first national platform documenting entrepreneur experiences with funding institutions.
The Problem
No Accountability. No Transparency. No Voice.
Nearly 70% of South African businesses report problems when applying for funding. Applications ignored for months. Rejections without explanations. Until now, there was no platform to document these experiences.
Applications Ignored
Founders wait months or years for responses. Reference numbers lead nowhere. Documents go missing.
No Transparency
Funding decisions are opaque. DFIs operate without public performance metrics.
Policy Blind Spot
Without structured data, policymakers cannot identify systemic institutional failures.
