Two ways to deploy

Equity.
And revenue share.

Most syndicates only offer equity SPVs. Tapped In Capital runs both — diversify your deployment across illiquid venture upside and liquid revenue-share cash flow.

Track A

Equity SPV

The usual venture motion.

Pool capital into a Delaware LLC administered by Sydecar, invest in a priced round, share in the upside if there's an exit.

  • Standard SPV structure via Sydecar
  • One cap-table line for the founder
  • Returns at acquisition, IPO, or write-off
  • Typical 3–10+ year hold
  • 15% carry on profit only

Track B

Revenue-share deals

Something most syndicates don't offer.

Back a profitable business's cash flow with a direct Revenue Share Agreement. Get paid back monthly from a percent of revenue, capped at ~1.5–2× your check.

  • Direct bilateral RSA with the founder
  • Monthly revenue-share payments
  • Cap typically 1.5–2× your investment
  • Typical 2–4 year payback
  • Liquid, predictable, no exit required

What we back

SaaS · CPG · phygital.

Software businesses, consumer packaged goods, and the hybrid — Black founders building defensible product businesses with real users or real revenue.

SaaS

Software, marketplaces, vertical platforms. Venture-trajectory companies.

CPG

Consumer brands with traction. Food, beverage, beauty, lifestyle.

Phygital

The hybrid — connected products, software-attached hardware, branded experiences.

How it works

Five steps. No ambiguity.

  1. 01

    Spotlight

    Founder presents to the syndicate in a 30–45 min session. Recording shared with anyone who couldn't attend.

  2. 02

    Commit

    Indicate your allocation in the post-Spotlight form. Non-binding until you sign Sydecar docs.

  3. 03

    Wire

    Funds go to Sydecar's escrow — never David's hands. KYC + accreditation verified at this stage.

  4. 04

    Close

    When the SPV hits its minimum, capital deploys to the founder. One line on their cap table.

  5. 05

    Returns

    Quarterly updates via David. Exit triggers distribution — capital back first, carry on profit only.

The economics

No annual fees. No ongoing drag.

Carry only triggers on profit — losses owe nothing.
