Crowdfunding

Crowdfunding is where anyone can fund into projects.

This is where individuals provide capital to businesses in exchange for equity,debt,or revenue sharing,expecting a financial return,so in most cases this is considered investing. However,in some cases such as "donation-based" or "Reward-based" funding is actually not an investment as backers receive a product or service,not a financial return.[1]

These are some notable types of Crowdfunding:

Equity crowdfunding

Investors receive shares (equity) in a startup or small business.

Debt-Based crowdfunding(aka PTP lending)

Investors lend money to a business and receive interest payments over time.

Real Estate crowdfunding

Investors pool money to invest in property, seeking returns from rent or appreciation.[2]

Conclusion

There are more types of crowdfunding and some don't even have to do with investing.
