How Pacaso Raised $72.5M from Retail Investors

Pacaso, a company focused on fractional vacation home ownership, had raised significant venture capital but sought to further its mission of democratization by opening its equity to retail investors. To achieve this, Pacaso partnered with the vendor DealMaker to execute a sophisticated and compliant capital raise using their Reg A+ platform.

Using DealMaker's comprehensive solution, which included seamless investor onboarding, a self-hosted branded experience, and a full-service marketing engine, Pacaso successfully raised $72.5 million. The campaign attracted over 17,500 retail investors, creating a powerful base of investor-advocates while securing strategic expansion capital. DealMaker enabled Pacaso to combine retail and venture capital effectively, setting a new standard for community-focused fundraising.
