The advantages of Gamevestor
Financing the creation of video games and sharing their success
Support, influence, and benefit from the success of the games you finance, starting from €100. Receive a share of sales revenue, depending on commercial performance. You can also make donations to receive rewards.
Projects filtered and monitored by experts
We only offer projects analyzed and validated by our team of experts. We only work with experienced developers and ensure regular monitoring of progress.
Payouts released in stages
Studios do not receive all the money from the campaign at once. Payouts are released progressively, according to the project's progress. If a project fails, you may potentially recover part of your investment.
Our Mission
Working for creation, creators’ freedom and the respect of players in the video game industry, particularly through crowdfunding.
We seek to reinvent video game investment by realigning power with both players and studios.
The existing video game financing structure is currently disconnected. We hold the conviction that its restoration depends solely on those who sustain it: the players.
By taking the role of investors, gamers can finally become the main contributors to the industry and share profits with their preferred creators.
Studios, in turn, are empowered to depart from traditional financial models and activate their communities to execute their visions.
Through Gamevestor, our objective is to see fans evolve into partners, ensuring that video game aspirations are realized.
Our story
Gamevestor was born in France, driven by the initiative of two video game enthusiasts: Ivan Marchand and Arthur Van Clap Ceulen. After years working for Ubisoft, EA, Google, SEGA..., they decided to launch their own studio in 2023.
The industry is going through a deep crisis: studios are closing in series, layoffs are accumulating, and the chances of financing a new project are currently close to zero. The paradox? They were told that, 18 months earlier, the funds would have been available…
By discussing with dozens of specialized investors across the world, they became aware of the problems in the current video game financing market.
That’s when they envisioned Gamevestor: a new approach to restore balance and involve players like never before.
A new model. For creation. For players. For studios.
