An offer is an invitation from your fund manager to acquire equity in one of their portfolio companies. When a new offer is created for you, Centi notifies you by email and makes the offer available in the Investor Portal so you can review the terms and subscribe at your own pace — up to the deadline set by the fund manager.

Receiving an offer

Centi sends you an email notification as soon as your fund manager activates an offer for you. The email identifies the organisation and company involved and includes a direct link to the portal. Click the link to go straight to the offer, or sign in to the Investor Portal at any time and find the offer in the Offers section of your home page.

Offer overview on the home page

Active offers appear as cards in the Offers section of your home page, one card per offer. Each card shows:
  • The organisation and portfolio company the offer relates to
  • The subscription deadline (the date by which you must complete and submit your subscription)
  • The current status of the offer (see Offer statuses below)
Click View offer on any card to open the full offer details and begin the subscription flow.

The subscription flow

Subscribing to an offer takes you through a short multi-step wizard.
1

Read the offer introduction

The first screen summarises what to expect: submitting your information, the fund manager’s review period, signing (and paying, if applicable), and investment completion. Read through and click Next to continue.
2

Choose your investment method

Select whether you are investing as an individual or through a holding company. If you select a holding company, KYB verification may be required before you can proceed.
3

Enter your personal or company details

Provide your contact information and confirm or update your address. This data is shared with the fund manager as part of your subscription application.
4

Select your subscription amount

Review the offer securities — including the security name, price per unit, and total units available. If the offer allows a custom subscription amount, enter how much you want to invest. For fixed-allocation offers, your allocation is pre-filled.Offer documents such as the information memorandum are available for download on this step. Read them before confirming your subscription.
5

Review and submit

Check the full summary of your subscription — security type, units, price per unit, and total investment — then click Submit to send your application to the fund manager.
If KYC verification is required and has not yet been completed, Centi redirects you to the identity verification flow when you open the offer. Complete verification and you will be returned to the offer automatically. See KYC Verification for details.

Signing the subscription agreement

After you submit your application, the fund manager reviews it. Once approved, you will receive a signing request to your email via DocuSign. Open the DocuSign email, review the document, and apply your electronic signature. You do not need to return to the Centi portal to sign — the entire signing process happens inside the DocuSign interface. Once you have signed, the offer card on your home page updates to reflect the signed status.
Check your inbox (and spam folder) for an email from DocuSign after you receive confirmation that your application has been reviewed. The signing email comes from DocuSign, not directly from Centi.

After signing

Once the fund manager receives your signed agreement and — where required — your payment, they complete the settlement process. Centi then registers the security event and the transaction appears in your Transaction History. You also receive an email confirmation at this point.

Offer statuses

Each offer has a status label that reflects where it sits in the lifecycle. Some states can show two status labels at once — for example Pending signature and Pending payment when both are outstanding simultaneously.
StatusWhat it means
(no status label)The offer is open and waiting for your subscription, or your subscription has been received and is under review. The subscription deadline is shown on the card.
Pending signatureDocuments have been sent to your email via DocuSign. Sign them before the signing deadline shown on the card.
Pending paymentPayment instructions are available. Complete the transfer before the payment deadline shown on the card.
SignedYou have signed the documents. The fund manager will complete the registration process and notify you when your investment is visible on Centi.
PaidYour payment has been received. If documents are still pending, sign them before the signing deadline.
Fully financedYour investment is fully covered by a loan arranged through your fund manager. No additional payment is required from you.
DeclinedYou have declined the offer. The fund manager has been notified and no further action is required.
Offer statuses are updated in real time as the fund manager progresses the offer through the workflow. Refresh the page if you expect a status change and it has not yet appeared.

Declining an offer

If you do not wish to participate, click Decline on the offer card. Confirm the decision in the dialog that appears. The fund manager is notified immediately and the offer is cancelled for you. This action cannot be undone, so contact your fund manager before declining if you are unsure.
