"Cake is what Carta should be."

"Cake is what Carta should be. It's easy to use, no need to speak to a representative every five minutes and the support actually gets stuff done.

One example is that when you have an issue with Carta, you need to call them and it gets escalated to multiple people and it takes *days* to get stuff done. With Cake, I have access to my own representative, I can book meetings with them when I want and they get things done within hours. And the price: Cake is 10% of the price of Carta."

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a transfer agent to offboard from Carta?

As a private company, you generally do not require a transfer agent unless you are about to IPO or you meet any of the following criteria:

1. Assets exceeding $10 million
2. 2,000 or more shareholders
3. 500 or more shareholders who are not accredited investors

If you do meet any of those criteria, or if you wanted to set up a transfer agent regardless, we can introduce to you our transfer agent partner who can utilise the Cake platform as your source of truth.
