Alt-Invest Compliance & Checkout Portal

Take private fund subscriptions online, with investor eligibility checked and evidenced before you accept

Overview

The Alt-Invest Compliance & Checkout Portal replaces paper subscription packs for private equity and other private funds. Investors complete and sign their subscription documents online, the portal collects the evidence needed to verify accredited investor and qualified purchaser status, and your compliance team reviews and accepts each subscription with the reasons recorded. Accepted subscriptions feed the data for your Form D and state notice filings, which your team or counsel submits.

The problem it solves

Most private fund closings still run on PDF subscription booklets that investors fill in by hand, return incomplete, and correct by email. Investor relations chases missing pages and signatures, compliance checks accredited investor status from documents sent in every format, and nobody can say at a glance which investors are ready to close. When a regulator or auditor asks how an investor's status was verified under Rule 506(c), or why a subscription was accepted, the answer is a folder of emails and scanned letters.

Who it’s for

  • Investor relations and fund operations teams at private equity, private credit and venture firms
  • Chief compliance officers who sign off on investor eligibility
  • Fund counsel who review subscription terms and prepare regulatory filings
  • Fund administrators who onboard investors into the register
  • Auditors and examiners, who need evidence of how each investor was accepted

How the work flows

  1. InviteInvestor relations sets up the offering, its document set and its eligibility rules, then invites investors or their advisers to a secure subscription workspace.
  2. SubscribeInvestors answer the subscription questionnaire online. Answers drive which sections apply, conflicting answers are flagged before submission, and the completed documents are signed electronically.
  3. VerifyThe portal collects the evidence for each investor's status and runs sanctions and bad actor checks. A compliance reviewer decides whether the evidence supports the status claimed and records why.
  4. Close and fileReady subscriptions are countersigned by the general partner. The portal prepares the closing package for the administrator and assembles the offering data for Form D and state notice filings.

What it does

Smart subscription questionnaire
One online questionnaire built from your counsel's documents, showing each investor only the sections that apply to them.
Consistency checks
Answers that contradict each other, such as an investor type and the accreditation basis claimed, are flagged before submission.
Accredited investor verification
Evidence collection for each basis of accreditation, including third-party verification letters, with the reviewer's decision and reasons recorded.
Qualified purchaser checks
Separate questions and evidence for qualified purchaser status where the fund relies on Section 3(c)(7).

Returning investors start from their earlier answers and documents, and confirm or update them for the new offering.

Investors, beneficial owners and signatories sent to your screening provider, with results attached to the subscription.

Security

Single sign-on

Implementation

Document conversion
We convert your counsel's subscription booklet and side questions into the online questionnaire, and your counsel reviews the result before it is used. We need the current documents and a contact at your law firm.

Integrations
E-signature, sanctions screening, CRM and administrator exports are connected and tested with sample investors.
Workflow and roles
Review steps, approval rules, exception handling and roles are configured to match your procedures.
Pilot offering
A first offering or a single share class runs through the portal with a small group of investors, and the questionnaire is adjusted from what they report.
Training and go-live
Investor relations, compliance and administrator staff are trained on their own workflows, and investor-facing guidance is prepared with your branding.

What it doesn’t do

  • The portal does not decide whether an investor is accredited or a qualified purchaser. Your compliance team reviews the evidence and makes that decision, and the portal records it.
  • It does not file Form D or state notice filings. It assembles the data, and your team or counsel submits filings through EDGAR and the relevant state systems.
  • Moraph does not hold, receive or move investor funds. Capital is wired to the fund's own bank account, and receipt is confirmed by your administrator.
  • It is not a sanctions screening engine. It sends investor details to the screening provider you choose and records the results.
  • Subscription documents and questions are your counsel's. Moraph converts them into the online form but does not give legal advice on their content.
  • It is designed for US private placements under Regulation D. Offerings under Regulation S or other countries' private placement rules need separate configuration and review by your counsel.
  • It does not maintain the fund's investor register or capital accounts after the close; that stays with your administrator.
  • Ongoing investor reporting, capital calls after the initial closing and distributions are not included.

How to evaluate it

  • Give us your current subscription booklet and review how it reads as an online questionnaire
  • Ask a colleague to subscribe as a trust investor and note where they get stuck
  • Check that the consistency checks catch the errors you see most often in paper booklets
  • Walk through an accredited investor verification and decide whether the record would satisfy your auditor
  • Review the closing board against how you track readiness today
  • Confirm role separation: who can collect evidence, accept a status and approve an exception

Questions

Who owns the investor data in the portal?

Your firm does. How it is returned to you and deleted at the end of the agreement is set out in the contract.

Can we use our existing subscription documents?

Yes. We convert your counsel's documents into the online questionnaire, and your counsel reviews the result before any investor sees it.

Does the portal verify accredited investor status for us?

It collects and checks the evidence and presents it to your compliance reviewer, who decides. The decision and the reasons are recorded with the subscription.

Does Moraph handle investor money?

No. Funding notices carry your fund's own bank instructions, and your administrator confirms receipt. Moraph does not hold or move funds.

How is it priced?

As a subscription, usually measured by the number of funds or offerings and investors, with implementation charged separately. See Working with Moraph for what drives a quotation.

Is there an accessibility conformance report?

Ask for one through the procurement request form at /how-to-buy/request, naming the version you are evaluating.
