AngelList & Belltower

AngelList and Belltower's future partnership

AngelList will continue to partner with Belltower as its trusted native fund administrator for venture fund managers looking for our integrated full-service back office solution that pairs AngelList’s software with Belltower’s services. This combination provides fund managers with a turnkey full-service offering, including fund formation, portfolio management, financial reporting, and more when launching their fund.

Similar to AngelList’s relationship with other Preferred Partners, AngelList and Belltower will operate closely, ensuring that current and future customers experience the same level of top-tier service. For existing full-service fund management customers, Belltower’s independence will not change the way your fund is administered. You will continue to have the same account manager and the same experience managing your fund online via the AngelList platform.

For our future customers, you will still have the option to use AngelList's full-service offering to form, launch, and run your fund – experiencing the powerful combination of AngelList's software and Belltower's services. Alternatively, you can choose to use AngelList's standalone software alongside your existing fund administrator.

We are excited for this next chapter for Belltower and AngelList, as it enables both companies to further excel in their respective missions to provide exceptional service and products for private markets.
