SEIS and EIS schemes are designed to help companies raise investment in the early years. You can raise a maximum of £150,000 of your funding through (S)EIS investments.

By offering generous tax relief to investors, these schemes encourage them to invest in qualifying companies. Through SEIS investment, investors can claim 50% tax relief, and through EIS they can claim 30%.

How it works
The (S)EIS process is split into three different rounds: Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A. We can help you at every stage, here’s the lowdown on each of the rounds:
Pre-Seed
This round is geared towards start-ups that are in the pre-product, pre-launch stage. These teams are generally small and ideas-focused, possessing what is essentially a minimum viable product. In this round, the goal is to maximise potential future fundraising opportunities through testing.
Seed
Start-ups at this level will already have a validated value proposition: a monthly revenue which is consistent and constant, and visible month-on-month growth. This round is focused on providing start-ups with the next level of funding to scale, grow and become competitors in the marketplace.
Series A
The final round targets start-ups which are already generating strong revenue from their business model. Series A investors are likely to be either venture capital funds or ‘angel investors’ who are willing to take on the high risks associated with funding early-stage companies. If you can secure Series A investment, the aim of most investors will be to scale your product nationally, or even internationally!
