• Keep, per WP:HASREFS. I have just added two references. --Edcolins (talk) 13:47, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment, have you actually cared to examine the sources? Most of them merely discuss it in passing along with other startups. No major source has covered it exclusively. All coverage is less than a year old. No indication it is notable per GNG or WP:CORP. FoCuS contribs; talk to me! 21:58, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You've got a point, but I still think that the two sentences in Bessant (2015), the whole paragraph in Sixt (2014), half a page in a 2011 EENC Report (which I have just added), and the four other references in various newspapers (one of them -just added as well- indicating that Seedups had been "featured in the Forbes top 10 crowdfunding platform list") together establish notability. Borderline perhaps, but sufficient to keep IMHO. Although the depth of coverage might not be substantial, multiple independent sources exist (WP:CORPDEPTH). --Edcolins (talk) 20:28, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
