Zaar is a donation/reward-based crowdfunding platform in Malta that offers an alternative to raise finance for projects and business ideas in order to get them funded.   The Zaar crowdfunding platform was established to promote entrepreneurship and offer alternative funding methods to start-ups and entrepreneurs. This was the first initiative by the Foundation for the Promotion of Entrepreneurial Initiatives (FPEI), set up by the Malta Business Bureau (MBB) and the University of Malta (UM).
