What was Paxiot?
Paxiot Limited was an FCA-authorised firm (FRN 610217) that offered white-label and bespoke investment portals to help businesses run direct investment rounds or public offers. The firm positioned itself as a service provider to issuing companies — supplying legal, regulatory, web-development and administrative support for capital raises — rather than as a retail investment manager that holds or manages investor money.
The Paxiot website was offline at review and the Trustpilot page returned 404; no recent 2024–2026 press activity was located. The profile is therefore treated as inactive. Several founder/product claims could not be independently verified and are flagged below.
How did Paxiot work?
Paxiot's service model was to deliver an integrated portal for a company to host its own offer on its website and handle the associated regulatory and payment processes. Companies commissioned a customised portal and Paxiot provided the technology and support required, with fees charged to the issuing company rather than to individual investors. The platform reportedly supported both restricted (friends & family / angel) offers and open offers to the public, integrating with payment providers (e.g. Stripe) and bank transfers [unverified].
Permissions can be confirmed on the FCA Financial Services Register under FRN 610217.
What did Paxiot offer?
Paxiot provided tooling and services to enable companies to issue private company securities — for example, ordinary shares, convertible notes, SAFEs/ASAs and corporate bonds — and to administer investor onboarding. Investors participated in offers run by the issuing company; Paxiot did not manage pooled investor funds or run collective investment schemes, and therefore publishes no platform-level performance track record or default-rate statistics.
Minimum investment levels, investor eligibility, tax-relief availability (SEIS/EIS) and suitability were determined by the issuing company and tax rules, not by Paxiot. Fees for Paxiot's service were bespoke and charged to the issuing company [unverified].
Who was Paxiot for?
The product was aimed at UK companies wishing to raise capital directly from their customers or the wider public while retaining control of the offer and customer relationship — more suited to established consumer brands with a ready customer base than to first-time startups using a generic crowdfunding marketplace.
For investors, offers hosted on a Paxiot portal represented direct investments into individual private companies, which are typically illiquid and higher risk than listed securities. Investors must perform their own due diligence on each issuer.
