Deal Structures for Athletes
As an athlete, your Deal structures are based on Income Contracts—investors participate in your future earnings rather than equity in a company. You can choose to share earnings from your sport career only, or from both sport and non-sport income.
Every structure can be customized. As you adjust terms, you'll see a Deal Summary update in real-time.

PersoniFi FlexShare
Investors participate in your future earnings—both in-sport and non-sport
How it works: A single Income Contract with two components. Investors receive a share of your earnings from your athletic career and any non-sport income (business ventures, endorsements outside your sport, etc.). Each component has its own terms.
Contract components:
| Component | What It Covers |
|---|---|
| In-Sport Income Contract | Earnings from your athletic career (contracts, prize money, sport-related endorsements) |
| Non-Sport Income Contract | Earnings from ventures, work, or opportunities outside your sport |
Customizable terms (In-Sport):
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Cap (#) | Maximum total payout from in-sport earnings |
| Min Threshold ($) | Minimum annual income before sharing kicks in |
| Rate (%) | Percentage of in-sport income shared with investors |
| Years (#) | Duration of the in-sport income contract |
Customizable terms (Non-Sport):
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Cap (#) | Maximum total payout from non-sport earnings |
| Min Threshold ($) | Minimum annual income before sharing kicks in |
| Rate (%) | Percentage of non-sport income shared with investors |
| Years (#) | Duration of the non-sport income contract |
Best for: Athletes who want to raise funding against their full earning potential—both inside and outside their sport. Gives investors broader exposure to your success.

Which Should You Choose?
| Consider this... | Choose... |
|---|---|
| You want to raise more and offer investors broader exposure | FlexShare |
| You want to protect non-sport income and keep things simple | FlexShareUpside |
| You have significant endorsement or licensing potential | FlexShareUpside with Royalties |
| You plan to build businesses outside your sport | FlexShare (investors participate in that upside too) |
Tip: FlexShare typically raises more because investors get broader exposure, but FlexShareUpside gives you more protection over non-sport earnings. Choose based on what you're comfortable sharing.
