Common questions
Is it really free for sellers to list?
Yes. A basic anonymous listing and your instant valuation cost nothing. The Verified and Featured upgrades are optional, and both are refunded if your business sells through the platform. Our core model is buyer pays.
What kinds of businesses can list?
Skilled trades and home services such as HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, and pest control; construction companies including general contractors and home builders; and technology businesses including IT services and managed service providers, software and SaaS companies, technology companies, and AI companies. International and distribution businesses are welcome too. See all industries we cover.
Who pays the success fee?
The buyer pays the success fee at close. It runs 1.5 to 3 percent of total deal value depending on deal size and complexity. Sellers keep more of their proceeds, and buyers only pay when they actually acquire.
How do I pay, and is sales tax added?
Checkout is hosted by Stripe and accepts major cards, Apple Pay, Link, and bank payments. Stripe calculates any sales tax due based on your billing address, and you can add your company tax ID at checkout. You receive a receipt by email.
Can I cancel a buyer subscription anytime?
Yes. All buyer plans are billed monthly and you can cancel anytime from your billing portal. Access continues through the end of the month you paid for. There is no long term contract.
Can I stay anonymous while my business is listed?
Yes. Listings are anonymous by default. Buyers see the financial profile and key metrics, not your company name or identity, until you choose to reveal it to a buyer you want to engage.
Do you allow bundled or grouped acquisitions?
Yes. Premium and White Glove buyers can source single tuck ins or build bundled roll ups across multiple owners, metros, and sectors. White Glove buyers get curated matching to their acquisition thesis.
