However, investing in oil and gas production and operations can be complicated, expensive, and risky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s how EnergyFunders differentiates itself from any other energy company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you invest in EnergyFunders, you invest in a company that purchases oil and gas assets across the United States. The exact projects will change as the company acquires more and sells others. EnergyFunders is also intending to invest in off-the-grid Bitcoin mining and has partnered with crypto-mining experts to create mobile Bitcoin mining units at their natural gas well locations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The platform cuts out the middleman and only makes money when investors make money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this detailed review, we\u2019ll cover everything you need to know about the EnergyFunders investment platform, including how it works, the fees, potential returns, pros and cons, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='borrow-our-cheat-sheet' class=\"wp-block-heading\"

EnergyFunders?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>EnergyFunders was founded in 2013 by Philip Racusin, Roger Gingell, Michael Racusin, and Casey Minshew. The company was acquired in 2020 by Paleo Resources and is headquartered in Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now headed by CEO Laura Pommer, the EnergyFunders platform is the first fintech firm to offer direct equity crowdfunding investments in oil and gas with a focus on drilling opportunities open to accredited investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through EnergyFunders\u2019 online platform, investors can invest in oil and gas and drilling opportunities. The fund has also partnered with crypto-mining experts to create mobile Bitcoin mining units at their natural gas well locations. The Bitcoin mines will convert wellsite natural gas into Bitcoin.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve invested with EnergyFunders, you can expect to start receiving monthly distributions within six months of the close of the fund. In addition to the potential to earn high returns, investors can also take advantage of significant oil and gas tax advantages.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Classified as Regulation D offering by the Securities Act, EnergyFunders can raise funds through a public offering faster and at a lower cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"693\" src=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-223-1024x693.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-223-1024x693.png 1024w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-223-300x203.png 300w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-223-768x520.png 768w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-223-380x257.png 380w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-223-251x170.png 251w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-223.png 1098w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-energyfunders-work\"><strong>How does EnergyFunders work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, investing in oil and gas was largely reserved for the wealthy. EnergyFunders is trying to break down the old school barriers and make the process of investing in oil and gas more accessible and much more simple.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EnergyFunders works with oil and gas operators to identify investments. Their seasoned geologists, engineers, and operational advisors are responsible for vetting projects. Assets are selected based on geologic and engineering analysis, risk evaluations, project projections, and economic evaluations. EnergyFunders investments are focused on low-risk, proven reserves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve signed up as an investor, you can log in to the EnergyFunders portal to choose from available deals. You have the option to invest as either a General or Limited Partner. The minimum investment for General Partners is $50,000, and there is no liability cap. The minimum investment for a Limited Partner is $5,000, and liability is capped at the member\u2019s total investment amount.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the fund starts to generate cash (usually within six months of the close of each fund), you will start to see payouts of approximately 10% net income in monthly distributions. At the end of the fund life, the remaining investment might be liquidated and returned back to investors (net of expenses and fees).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Who can invest with EnergyFunders?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, only&nbsp;accredited investors&nbsp;can invest with EnergyFunders. This includes international investors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be classified as an accredited investor you typically either need to have a net worth exceeding $1 million (excluding your primary residence) or you must have an earned income of over $200,000 for the prior two years ($300,000 for a married couple). You will have to provide that you are an accredited investor before you begin investing.&nbsp; Licensed financial professionals are also able to invest with EnergyFunders even if they do not meet the other accreditation criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='where-energyfunders-gets-it-right' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"whereGetsItRight\">Where EnergyFunders gets it right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tax benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As EnergyFunders explains, in the 1970s there were major gas shortages as a result of the OPEC cartel cutting off the oil supply. In response, the federal government started to offer significant tax breaks to encourage Americans to invest in domestic oil and gas production. Bitcoin mining also offers potential tax deductions. You can learn more about the specific tax benefits you can enjoy when you invest with EnergyFunders&nbsp;here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Extensive vetting process&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of EnergyFunders projects are subject to a three-stage vetting process. Projects are screened by expert teams of geologists and engineers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Attractive returns<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to monthly distributions, you also have the opportunity to earn more if the remaining assets are liquidated at the end of the Fund life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='where-energyfunders-could-do-better' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"whereCouldDoBetter\">Where EnergyFunders could do better<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Limited liquidity&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of now, you can expect your principal investment to be tied up for approximately three to five years. However, EnergyFunders is partnering with tZERO to provide investors with the opportunity for potential liquidity and a continuous trading environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Not open to non-accredited investors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, you have to be an accredited investor to participate. In most cases, this means you either have to have a solid income of over $200,000 for the past two years ($300,000 if you\u2019re married), or a net worth of over $1 million (excluding your primary residence). There are currently no opportunities for non-accredited investors to get in on the action.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Relatively short history<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EnergyFunders has been around since 2013 but was acquired by Paleo Resources in 2020. At this time, major changes were made to the company\u2019s board and management. While this is not necessarily something to be concerned about, the relatively short track record may be something that investors want to consider and look into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='can-you-really-make-money-on-energyfunders' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"canYouReallyMakeMoneyOn\">Can you really make money on EnergyFunders?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, there is an opportunity to make money with EnergyFunders. You can expect to target a 30% to 100%&nbsp;internal rate of return (IRR)&nbsp;plus a 10% to 12% yield paid out monthly while reinvesting. The reinvestment phase is roughly two years. In year three, EnergyFunders typically shifts to 100% net income distributions. Somewhere in years three to five, the remaining assets will be liquidated and proceeds will be distributed back to investors, after fees and expenses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to&nbsp;EnergyFunders projected returns, if you invest in their oil and gas projects you can expect a target IRR of 25% to 30% for proven undeveloped drilling projects with a target allocation of 35%. For proven developed purchase projects investors can expect a target IRR of 15% with a 15% target allocation. Investing in Bitcoin mining, specifically in mobile wellsite mining, has a targeted IRR of 100% to 300% and a target allocation of 50%.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5748\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224.png 1000w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-257x257.png 257w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-170x170.png 170w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-350x350.png 350w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-60x60.png 60w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-224-15x15.png 15w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-make-money-with-energyfunders\"><strong>How do I make money with EnergyFunders?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When your investment begins to generate cash (usually within six months of the close of each fund), EnergyFunders will pay out approximately 10% of net income in distributions each month. The remaining net income is retained for reinvestment opportunities. Reinvestments stop as the Fund reaches its target life of three to five years and at this time, 100% of the net income is distributed. When the Fund lifecycle is complete, EnergyFunders might liquidate the remaining investment and distribute the remaining amount back to investors, after expenses and fees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EnergyFunders charges an annual management fee of 2% as well as a one-time origination fee based on the size of your investment. Investments of $5k to $99k have a 5% origination fee. The larger the investment, the lower the fee. Investments over $1 million are charged a 1% fee.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How do I cash out with EnergyFunders?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can expect your money to be tied up in an EnergyFunders fund for approximately three to five years. At this time, you can not sell your shares in the fund after you have invested. However, EnergyFunders is planning to partner with tZERO, an alternative trading system that is powered by blockchain technology. The tZERO partnership will help to provide more liquidity to investors and to establish a continuous trading environment for private market assets. This would give investors the opportunity to buy in and out of the funds in a shorter period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>EnergyFunders vs traditional investing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Including alternative investments like oil and gas can help to create a more balanced investment portfolio. Investing in commodities like oil and gas can also help to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/select\/where-to-put-your-money-during-inflation-surge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>hedge against inflation<\/u><\/a>. The same can be true for investing in Bitcoin but it\u2019s never a sure bet.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike traditional investments, you can expect less liquidity when you invest with EnergyFunders. On average, your money will be invested for a period of three to five years. When you invest in the stock market, you can trade your shares on the same day. However, EnergyFunders is working on increasing liquidity through its partnership with tZERO.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While EnergyFunders is working to make investing in oil and gas more accessible, compared to traditional investments, the barrier to entry is comparably very high. To invest with EnergyFunders you need to be an accredited investor with a minimum of $5,000 to invest. The stock market is open to everyone, and you can start investing with an online brokerage for as little as a few dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"693\" src=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-225-1024x693.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-225-1024x693.png 1024w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-225-300x203.png 300w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-225-768x520.png 768w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-225-380x257.png 380w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-225-251x170.png 251w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-225.png 1098w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='what-other-people-are-saying-about-energyfunders' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-other-people-are-saying-about-energyfunders\">What other people are saying about EnergyFunders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>People aren\u2019t saying much about EnergyFunders when it comes to social media. However, EnergyFunders has been in the news for its partnership with tZERO. In May 2021, Business Wire documented the partnership between EnergyFunders and tZERO, to digitize $25 million of equity interest in EnergyFunders Yield Fund I. This is exciting because it can help to improve the liquidity of a formerly illiquid investment. EnergyFunders was also in the news in 2020 when it was acquired by Paleo Resources and announced changes to its board and management.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In December 2021, the company&#8217;s new CEO, Laura Pommer, was also featured in the San Antonio Business Journal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='are-there-other-apps-like-energyfunders' class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are there other apps like EnergyFunders?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, there aren\u2019t many other online investment companies that offer crowdfunding opportunities in oil and gas investing. However, there are many investment apps that allow investors to get involved in cryptocurrencies and other commodities. Bitcoin is offered as part of EnergyFunders Yield Fund in an effort to increase returns on investments and add overall diversification.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other apps that offer investment opportunities in commodities include&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/discover\/vaulted\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>Vaulted<\/u><\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/discover\/etoro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>eToro<\/u><\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Investing in commodities like oil and gas or gold has traditionally only been available to the very wealthy. However, companies like EnergyFunders and Vaulted are making commodity investing more accessible and affordable. Vaulted is even more affordable than EnergyFunders with a minimum investment of only $10. Unlike EnergyFunders, Vaulted is open to non-accredited investors. eToro is an online social trading platform for cryptocurrencies. The minimum investment amount is $50 and it is open to non-accredited investors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use MoneyMade to check out these competing investment platforms along with 160+ other&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/discover\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>investment platforms<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='our-hot-take-on-energyfunders' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-our-hot-take-on-energyfunders\">Our hot take on EnergyFunders<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>EnergyFunders provides accredited investors with a simplified way to invest in private market energy deals. For those that are interested in including an alternative investment like oil and gas into their portfolio, EnergyFunders provides a unique opportunity to do so.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who have thought about investing with EnergyFunders but were not keen on the overall lack of liquidity might want to reconsider now that the company has partnered with tZERO. EnergyFunders also gives investors the ability to invest in energy and crypto mining together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While there is the opportunity to earn 30% to 100% IRRs, plus monthly cash distributions, it is important that investors also explore the risks involved before making a decision. Like any investment, there are pros and cons, and it&#8217;s necessary to do your research so you understand what you are getting yourself into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"howDoISignUpFor\">I\u2019m in!
