SellSideTrades

Referral partners

Know an owner ready to sell? Get paid when it closes.

CPAs, attorneys, wealth advisors, bankers, business brokers, and industry consultants refer owners of trade, construction, IT, software, technology, and AI companies to SellSideTrades. When a referred deal closes, your share of the success fee is paid straight to your bank through Stripe.

How it works

Simple, documented, and paid at close.

  1. Get your invite. Partners join by invitation and sign a written referral agreement with your share spelled out.
  2. Set up payouts once. Verify your identity and add a bank account through Stripe. About five minutes.
  3. Introduce owners. Send clients to a free, confidential valuation. They stay anonymous until they choose to engage a buyer.
  4. Get paid. When the buyer pays the success fee, your share is routed to your Stripe balance and paid out to your bank.
