How does the waitlist work?
If the campaign reaches the maximum goal, no more investments can get accepted and all following investment commitments get added to the waitlist.
If one of the earlier investors decides to cancel or doesn’t fund their investment in time, the first person with the matching or lower desired allocation on the waitlist will get their spot.
For example, If space opens up for $1,000 and your waitlisted investment is $1,500, you won't get in, but the person behind you with a $900 waitlisted investment will get in, and the next person with a $100 waitlisted investment or less will get in as well.

If I receive a Crowd SAFE, is my investment an equity interest?
Crowd Safes (SAFEs) are not common stock. Common stock represents an ownership stake in a company and entitles you to certain rights under state corporate law and federal securities law. A SAFE, on the other hand, is an agreement to provide you a future equity stake based on the amount you invested if—and only if—a triggering event occurs. SAFEs do not represent a current equity stake in the company in which you are investing. Instead, the terms of the SAFE have to be met in order for you to receive your equity stake.
