Wealt's fee structure is designed to be simpler and, for most investors, lower-cost than a traditional VC fund commitment.
Key differences
No annual management fee: Wealt doesn't charge you a 2% annual fee while your money sits in the fund. You pay a one-time setup fee, and that's it until exit.
You choose the deals: In a VC fund, the manager selects 15–30 companies, and you're along for the ride. On Wealt, you pick each deal individually.
Lower minimums: VC funds typically require $250K–$1M+ commitments. Wealt deals start at $5,000.
Comparable carry: Performance fees are similar - both models charge 20% of profits.
Bottom line: For investors who want control over deal selection and lower ongoing costs, Wealt's deal-by-deal model is more efficient than a traditional fund. The trade-off is that you're managing your own diversification.
