Vancouver-based Blossom Social pulled in more than $2 million from a FrontFundr equity crowdfunding campaign, the company announced this week.
Co-founder and CEO Maxwell Nicholson posted on LinkedIn Monday that the social network for investors raised nearly $2 million within two hours of the campaign opening. A day later, total commitments hit $2.2 million from just over 1,000 investors. The campaign has since stopped accepting non-accredited investors because it exceeded the Canadian crowdfunding exemption.
The fresh capital will fund Blossom's global push. The company plans a full launch in the United Kingdom later this year, following its entry into the U.S. market.
According to the FrontFundr page, the U.S. has become Blossom's fastest-growing market. It added over 200,000 members there in the past 12 months, a 187 percent jump from the year before. The platform also signed up more than 50,000 users from countries including the UK, Australia, and Germany, even though the app does not yet support international exchanges or brokerages.
Founded in 2021 during the retail investing boom, Blossom operates as a social network where investors share verified stock portfolios, trades, and ideas. The mobile app includes portfolio analysis tools, dividend tracking, and what Nicholson calls "Duolingo-style investing education."
The company has raised multiple rounds through equity crowdfunding, including more than $3 million last year. Since then, membership has tripled from 250,000 to over 750,000 users. Blossom is on track to record more than $6.5 million in annualized revenue in the second quarter of 2026.
The raise comes as social investing continues to gain traction on mainstream platforms. Reddit communities like r/wallstreetbets regularly share portfolio screenshots, and X introduced "Cashtags" earlier this year to help users discuss financial markets directly on the platform.
