Viewture EIS

YouTube videos can be highly lucrative. Ads placed in videos – particularly if watched by thousands or millions of people – generate substantial advertising revenue. In 2025, YouTube generated $40 billion, more than Disney, NBCUniversal, Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery combined. Content creators – YouTubers – receive a large percentage of this – around $22 billion in 2025.

However, there is a structural mismatch between when revenues are earned and when capital is needed.

YouTube tends to pay in arrears, whilst creators need capital upfront to fund production. Neither can they easily access capital through conventional financing, because of the non-traditional nature of their income. As a result, many creators are capital-constrained despite operating within a large, rapidly growing revenue pool.

Viewture is a fintech company that has built a platform to fund and monetise digital creator revenues.

• It provides upfront cash to creators in exchange for a share of future revenues, allowing them to invest in content without waiting for platform payments.
• It uses data and analytics to assess those future earnings and decide how much to invest and on what terms.
• It uses copyright and revenue‑tracking tools to identify, capture and monetise income that could otherwise be lost.

The principle is similar to buying the rights to a musician’s back catalogue, an established and attractive investment strategy.

At the core of Viewture’s platform is iQuant – a proprietary algorithm that analyses performance data to forecast a creator’s future revenues across digital platforms. Based on these forecasts, which have been shown to be highly accurate, Viewture provides upfront financing in exchange for an agreed share of their future revenues over a defined period.

As a result, creators gain access to the capital they need to grow, while investors gain exposure to a rapidly expanding and previously inaccessible asset class.

Since launch in 2020, the Viewture platform has invested $50 million into video licensing deals, with an average 39-month term, achieving a 46% IRR gross return on its underlying deals. Past performance is not a guide to the future.

Actual revenue and associated returns have been slightly higher than predicted by iQuant, achieving 105% of predicted revenues and 111% of views.

Viewture is currently EBITDA-positive and expects to remain so through the forecast period – not guaranteed. In its most recent financial year, 2025, the Company recorded revenue of £4.9 million and EBITDA of £2.6 million – growing both metrics c. 25% compared to the previous year. By the end of Y4, management forecasts revenues to increase to £63.6 million and EBITDA to £60.2 million – not guaranteed.

The management team has deep expertise in data analytics and valuation of specialised assets. Co-founder/CEO David Page previously founded Marlin Financial Services, a data-driven risk analytics business focused on acquiring non-performing debt. David grew Marlin from a start-up to a successful £300 million exit within a decade.

Viewture is backed by well-capitalised specialist investors, including:

• Bolt Ventures, the family office of Blackstone executive and billionaire sports investor David Blitzer. Bolt Ventures has invested £2.5 million equity and £5 million debt to date and is participating in the current round.
• Lingotto Investment Management, backed by the Agnelli family (founders of Fiat and major shareholders in Ferrari, The Economist and Juventus), has provided Viewture’s £100 million, 90% debt facility (used to fund Viewture’s YouTube asset purchases) alongside over £1.3 million of equity, with potential further participation in the current round.

Viewture is negotiating the strategic acquisition (80% stake) of a leading Digital Rights Management firm, the identity of which is currently under NDA. The company helps digital creators protect their content from unauthorised uploads and generate additional revenues from YouTube. It generated $20 million revenue in its last 12 months and is EBITDA-positive.

Management believes the $24 million acquisition could bolster Viewture’s market position and enhance its value offering. It plans to fund the acquisition through a combination of debt and equity. 

To this end, the Company is seeking to raise up to $8 million in equity. At least £1 million has already been committed by Bolt Ventures, c.£1.2 million by existing minority investors, and up to £5 million (potentially debt and equity) by a new institutional. Furthermore, Lingotto may elect to convert up to $2.3 million of options – not guaranteed.

Wealth Club investors have the opportunity to participate under EIS, at £17.35 per Ordinary share, equivalent to a valuation of £50 million. This is expected to be the last opportunity to invest in the Company under EIS before it outgrows the EIS qualifying criteria – not guaranteed. The minimum investment is £20,820.

Based on the Company’s forecasts, target pre-tax return for this round is approximately 5x, net of fees and before EIS tax relief – high risk and not guaranteed.

As can be expected when investing early stage, the potential rewards are significant, but so are the risks. You should form your own view.

This is a single-company offer with no diversification. It involves investing in an early-stage, unproven, loss-making business, which is by nature high-risk and prone to failure. There is a risk that the capital raised may not be sufficient to achieve the Company’s objectives. You could lose the amount you invest.

Like all investments available through Wealth Club, it is only for experienced investors happy to make their own investment decisions without advice.

There is no ready market for unlisted EIS shares: they are illiquid and hard to sell and value. There will need to be an exit for you to receive a realised return on your investment.

Exits are likely to take considerably longer than the three-year minimum EIS holding period; equally, an exit within three years could impact tax relief. The value of tax benefits depends on circumstances and tax rules can change.

Before you invest, please carefully read the documents prepared by the Company – alongside the Wealth Club Risks and Commitments.

The new investment will be made under the same structure and fees as the previous investment.
