Football supporter platform with Aston Villa star's support surpasses Seedrs target
Digital platform for football supporters Just A Fan’s Analysis (JAFA) is crowdfunding for investment via Seedrs.
The investment round is set to close next Saturday (January 18), and has attracted over 180 investors including Aston Villa and England star Tyrone Mings.
The Three Lions star said: “Fans are passionate, and fan engagement is changing. People want to be in control and seek a personalised experience. That’s what JAFA brings.
“As an investor, it’s been great to watch the business go from strength to strength last year and now is the perfect time to bring the fans on our journey.”
JAFA reached its funding goal in just 48 hours, but released more equity so football fans and supporters of the business can still invest and own a slice of the company, as well as invest alongside a Premier League footballer.
CEO and co-founder, Dan Bedi, added: “Being a fan-first business, we want that to be reflected in our shareholder base.
“We believe this is a fantastic time to join our exciting journey as we seek to fundamentally change the way football fans engage.”
