Where does ESO fit in?

Unlocking the value of your stock options can be a complex process, and that's where ESO Fund steps in to simplify the journey. As pioneers in the space since 2011, we provide funding to individuals seeking to exercise their stock options without the burden of upfront costs. Whether you're navigating an IPO lockup period or anticipating an eventual liquidity event, we empower you to access the financial benefits of your equity holdings.

How It Works:

  • Option Exercise Funding: ESO Fund offers a flexible financial solution, eliminating the need for out-of-pocket expenses when exercising stock options. Our tailored funding allows you to retain ownership of your shares' upside without bearing the downside risk.
  • No Company Contact, No Share Transfers: We respect your privacy and maintain a discreet approach. ESO Fund never initiates contact with your company, ensuring a seamless process. With no share transfers required during the private phase, your shares remain in your name until a liquidity event, granting you full ownership.

"Helped mitigate the risk of exercising stock options and enabled to fully take advantage of potential. The whole process was well thought out and communication and responsiveness was outstanding. Above it all, very trustful in such a delicate engagement."
- Software Engineer @ Series C Company, Silicon Valley

It's just not optimal for one's career to stay anywhere for 4-6 years in tech

“ESO Fund was a true partner to me as I evaluated financing alternatives to exercise my options. They were easy to work with, responsive, and transparent during each step of the process. As someone who leads finance at startups, I was impressed by how streamlined their diligence and financing process was. The transaction economics are fair and they are able to finance deals quickly.”
- VP Finance @ Ser D Company, Silicon Valley

It's just not optimal for one's career to stay anywhere for 4-6 years in tech

"It's a very practical service & I have friends who are thinking about not changing jobs because they are locked into their stock options. Good companies, but it's just not optimal for ones career to stay everywhere for 4-6 years in tech."
- Product and Engineering @ Now Public Company, Silicon Valley

"Super helpful, transparent and thoughtful. Made a complex, administratively daunting exercise straightforward and trustworthy, not to mention fast and a great deal."
- VP Marketing @ Series B Company, Silicon Valley

"Great product for those C-level employees who joined late-stage where options exercises are expensive and could require a substantial cash investment otherwise upon leaving."
- Executive VP Operations @ Series B Company, New York

"I want to thank you for all the patience throughout this undoubtedly annoying-at-times process :) You always made sure to take care of me even when it involves seemingly endless amendments. I’ve been telling many early startup employees about ESO Fund lately based on my excellent experience with you.
- Engineering Manager @ Series C Company, Silicon Valley

This innovative service promotes and enables a healthier relationship between companies and employees. I my opinion it's valuable to employees and great for the overall tech environment and economy. It is good for nobody when employees feel trapped because they can't afford to leave. In less extreme cases exercising can be expensive and somewhat risky and this is simply a good smart hedge and a good square deal. Brilliant!
