Moneybox smashes its investment target with over 15,000 people investing £6.25million in 72 hours in its Crowdcube campaign.

After just 72 hours, award-winning digital wealth manager, Moneybox, has closed its second crowdfunding campaign. Over 3 days, more than 15,000 people invested over £6.25million in what is Crowdcube’s most popular crowdfunding campaign of the year so far.

Moneybox now holds the record for the second and third most popular crowdfunding campaigns in Europe, ever!

moneybox (The crowdfund was launched to give the Moneybox community the opportunity to share in and shape the company’s future success, alongside top institutional investors. 8,700 people within the Moneybox community invested £3.7million before the crowdfund even went public.

Moneybox has seen exponential growth since its launch in 2016. From an initial offering enabling people to ‘invest their spare change’ into a Stocks & Shares ISA, Moneybox now helps over 850,000 customers build wealth with confidence across all their saving, investing, home-buying, and retirement needs.

AUA has grown to over £3.1bn, and with a team of 330, Moneybox is now the clear market leader in Lifetime ISAs and is the second-largest wealth manager in the UK by number of customers.

Together with the £35million Series D investment announced last month, funds will be used to grow the customer base, enhance the investing proposition, and focus on new, exciting ways to guide and support people with financial planning - for today and tomorrow.

Ben Stanway, Moneybox co-founder, commented: “We're blown away with the reception our second crowd raise received this week. Giving our community the chance to share in and shape our future has always been a priority, and our customers have been instrumental in the evolution of our products and services to date. Given the current economic climate, our mission to help people build wealth with confidence has never been more important. Our focus now is on finding new ways to guide and support people with financial planning throughout their lives. By continuing to focus on the under-served mass market we believe we are on a path to create the UK’s category-defining wealth platform.”
