A warrant does not force the holder to buy shares, it simply gives them the option to do so before the warrant expires.
From the “Financial instruments” page, you can issue, edit, expire, delete, or settle warrants.
Warrants are displayed in the fully diluted cap table so you can see the ownership structure, including warrants and other instruments.
Issuing a new warrant
You can issue a warrant in two ways:
Click “Issue” in the top right corner → select Warrant
Or click the “+” button in the warrants tab
This opens a side panel where you fill in the details.
Select the warrant holder
Choose who will receive the warrant:
Select an existing stakeholder, or
Create a new one directly from the panel
Set the terms of the warrant
You now define the key elements of the warrant:
Number of shares
How many shares the warrant gives the right to buy.
Strike / Exercise price
The price the holder must pay per share when exercising the warrant.
Expiration date (optional)
The last date the warrant can be used.
After this date, the warrant becomes invalid.
Warrant purchase price (optional)
If the holder pays something to receive the warrant, you can fill it in here.
Select the share class
You can choose how the share class is defined:
A) Share class agreed
The agreement already specifies which share class will be issued.
Select it from your existing share classes.
B) Share class upon conversion
The share class will be confirmed later.
Here you can write any details or rules from the agreement.
Add notable points from the agreement
Use this field to highlight important terms such as:
Vesting rules
Special rights
Limitations
Conditions for exercising the warrant
This helps when reviewing the warrant later.
Add documents
Upload any supporting documents:
Warrant agreement
Board approval
Certificates
Invite the holder (optional)
Send an email invitation so the receiver can view the warrant in their Unlisted portfolio.
Issue the warrant
Click “Issue warrant”.
The warrant will now appear in the warrants tab with the status “Approved.”
Managing an existing warrant
Next to each warrant, you'll see three dots with additional actions.
You can:
Set as expired
Edit
Delete
Settle
Here’s what each option does.
Set as expired
A warrant expires when the expiration date has passed and the holder no longer has the right to exercise it.
If the warrant is no longer valid, click this option to mark it as expired.
The warrant will remain in your records but cannot be used to buy shares.
Edit
Opens a side panel where you can update:
Number of shares
Strike price
Expiration date
Documents
Share class
Terms and descriptions
Save the changes when you're done.
Delete
Deletes the warrant permanently.
This action cannot be undone.
Settle (convert the warrant into shares)
When the holder wants to use the warrant to buy shares, you need to settle it.
Click “Settle” to open a side panel.
Settling a warrant
When settling a warrant, you finalize the conversion from warrant → shares.
Summary of the warrant
At the top of the panel, you see:
Stakeholder
Number of shares
Strike price
Expiration
Share class
Terms
This helps confirm everything before settling.
Settlement details
Enter:
Number of shares to settle
This can be all or only part of the warrant.
Settle date
The date the shares are being issued.
Share class
You can adjust the share class if needed.
Upload documents
Add any documentation needed for the issuance, agreements, board approvals, etc.
Invite the new shareholder
If the person should receive an email invitation to access their new shares in their portfolio, toggle the option on.
If the receiver is not yet a stakeholder, settling the warrant will automatically add them to the company’s cap table.
Send agreement / finalize
You now have two possibilities:
A) Send agreement
If you sent an invite, the receiver will:
Get an email
Accept (or decline) the agreement
Statuses will update automatically:
Sent → agreement waiting for acceptance
Settled → once the receiver has accepted
B) Settle without invitation
If you do not send an invite, you can click “Validate” and the warrant becomes Settled immediately.
In both cases, the new shares will:
Appear on your cap table
Create a transaction visible on the Transactions page
Conclusion
Warrants give someone the right to buy shares at a fixed price later.
Unlisted guides you through each step so you always understand the terms, the impact, and the final result on your cap table.
Warrants are displayed on the fully diluted cap table helping you manage dilution and future ownership structure.
