Your Security is Our Priority
We've built multiple layers of protection to ensure every transaction is secure, transparent, and successful for both buyers and sellers.
Secure Escrow
Buyers pay into Escrow.com, a licensed escrow company. The seller is paid only after the business is transferred and the buyer confirms it.
Verified Listings
A real person reviews every listing, its numbers and its owner before it goes live. Doubtful listings are rejected.
Expert Support
Our experienced team provides guidance throughout the process, from valuation to transfer completion.
What it costs
Free to list. 5% success fee (minimum $500) only when your business sells. Buyers pay nothing to browse or make offers.
Escrow.com charges its own fee for holding the money, split 50/50 between buyer and seller unless agreed otherwise.
