EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP PLATFORM

87% of your people show up.
And aren't really there.

You’re paying full salary for half the output. Hiring is expensive, turnover is worse, and engagement surveys change nothing. There’s a fix — and it’s not a bonus scheme.

WHO IS THIS FOR

Different company, different problem.

Equitshare is built for companies with 30–500 employees. The ownership model differs by type — but the outcome is the same: people who act like owners.

Startups

Can’t compete on salary. ESOP and VSOP turn equity into a real offer — not a PDF promise. Live in 3 days, no legal bill.

Manufacturing & Retail

Turnover is killing margins. Win-Linked Ownership ties reward to performance — for every worker, not just management.

Public Companies

Equity admin is a mess. Equitshare automates the entire back-office — one platform, full audit trail.

EQUITSHARE SIGNATURE MODEL

Win-Linked Ownership — zero cost until you win.

Set a profit target. If you exceed it, 10% of the surplus goes to employees as vesting equity. If you don’t — nothing is distributed. Zero risk until the company has already outperformed.

No Upfront Cost

Zero commitment until profit targets are exceeded. The program costs nothing until the company wins.

No Legal Complexity

Set up in 3 days. Grant letters, vesting schedules and EU compliance handled at the platform level.

Everyone Participates

Distributed across the whole workforce by role and tenure — not just leadership. Every employee has skin in the game.

Concrete example: A manufacturing company, 80 employees, sets a profit target of €2M and delivers €2.4M. The €400K surplus triggers Win-Linked — 10% (€40K) distributes across all 80 employees as vesting equity over 3 years. A line worker earning €24K receives ~€500 in equity this year, growing as the company keeps winning. The company paid nothing until they outperformed.

HOW IT WORKS

From first conversation to live program in 3 days.

STEP 01

We recommend the right model

Answer 10 questions about your company — size, industry, retention challenges, financial targets. We recommend ESOP, VSOP, Win-Linked Ownership, or a combination.

STEP 02

You configure and launch

Set profit targets, vesting schedules, employee tiers and marketplace rewards. Grant letters generated automatically. Most companies live within 72 hours.

STEP 03

We flag who's at risk — early

Live Engagement and Risk Indexes track behavioral signals. When a score drops you get an alert and a suggested action — not a resignation letter three weeks later.

PREDICTIVE INTELLIGENCE

Know who's leaving before they decide to go.

Engagement Index

Real-time score per employee, team and company — updated daily. Identifies top performers before a competitor makes them an offer.

Risk Index

When a score drops 30%+ over three weeks you get an alert and a concrete suggestion — schedule a 1:1, offer a reward, review the role. Weeks before a resignation, not after.

THE NUMBERS

What turnover actually costs a 100-person company.

€270K

annual turnover cost at 18% rate, avg €30K salary — 18 × €15K

235%

better retention at employee-owned firms — NCEO, 102 studies

€48K

annual cost of Equitshare EquitPlus for 100 employees — €4 × 100 × 12

The maths: you spend €270K on turnover and €48K on Equitshare. If ownership improves retention by even 30%, you break even in month one.

FAQ

Common questions.

What is Equitshare?

An employee ownership platform for companies with 30–500 employees — ESOP, VSOP and Win-Linked Ownership, plus an internal-currency rewards system and live retention analytics. EU-compliant. Live in 3 days, no external lawyers required.

What is Win-Linked Ownership and how does it work?

You set a profit target. Exceed it and 10% of the surplus (or a percentage you configure) distributes across your workforce as vesting equity, weighted by role and tenure. Miss it and nothing is distributed — zero cost.

How much does it cost and when does it pay for itself?

EquitStart is free for up to 5 users. EquitPlus is €4 per user / month (min 30 users) — about €4,800/yr for 100 people. A 30% retention improvement covers that several times over.
