Exercise your options directly in Cake

Update by
Aaron Blakemore
Product Manager

We've built option exercising directly into Cake Equity—turning weeks of paperwork and coordination into a streamlined digital workflow that takes minutes.

Your team can now exercise their vested options without the usual administrative headaches. Companies maintain full control with approval workflows, while option holders get a transparent, easy process they'll actually want to use.

What you can do with option exercising:

  • Request to exercise any number of vested shares with one click
  • Sign documents digitally—no printing, scanning, or mailing required
  • Complete the exercise process after paying strike prices to your company
  • Track exercise status in real-time for both companies and option holders
  • Approve or deny exercise requests with full visibility into the process

Companies can enable exercising in their admin settings and configure bank account details. While Cake Equity handles the workflow and documentation, companies manage their own payment processing according to their legal requirements.
