Aptera has recently transitioned to a new investment processing platform to better serve our community of investors. We previously worked with Issuance to handle new investments, KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) checks, and payment processing. However, we have now switched to Industry Fintech, powered by Tribexa for these services. This change allows for a more streamlined and efficient investment process.
