RallyRd

Overview

Rally is a platform for buying & selling equity shares in collectible assets. They make investing behind ideas, emotions, and communities safe, easy, and accessible. The result… A 21st Century Portfolio, for everyone. They source, verify, and acquire the most noteworthy items from collections and individuals all over the world and turn that item into “a company” via regulatory qualification. They then split the items into equity shares and open an “Initial Offering” on Rally where investors of all sizes can purchase shares to build their portfolio.

How you make money

Asset appreciation. RallyRd has an active secondary market that allows investors to trade in and out of their investment. Each car is listed in a process not unlike an initial public offering of stock: the car is given an opening value, listed, and investors buy shares which are then locked down for 90 days. The startup has periodically opened trading windows to allow investors to buy or sell stocks in the cars, and most of the cars have traded up since the initial offering. The ‘77 Lotus Esprit gained 15 percent and the 7Up Mustang 20 percent, although a 2006 Ferrari F430 lost 2 percent.

How RallyRd makes money

All the shares are common shares, and the company’s principals buy between 2 and 10 percent of the shares in each car so therefore have an invested interest. RallyRd may expand their offering to include pay-as-you-go and subscription plans that come with premium features, but they are committed to open access, so will make sure there’s always a free option.
