A startup marketplace puts a business you no longer want to run in front of people looking to buy one. They are not launch sites: you list here to sell, and the buyer takes over the product, its customers and its revenue. The right one depends on the size of the sale, from a side project with no revenue to a SaaS with years of steady income.

Read the fees first. They come as a listing fee, a success fee on the sale price, or both, and a few charge neither. Of the 11 we checked, 3 list you for free, and each record quotes the fees from the marketplace's own pricing page where it states them.

How to do it well

  • Get your numbers in order first: revenue, costs, churn and where customers come from, month by month.
  • Connect your payment provider or analytics where the marketplace offers it; verified numbers sell faster.
  • Write down everything a buyer would need to run the product without you, before you list.
  • Set a price you can explain from your numbers, and expect buyers to ask how you got to it.

What a marketplace or broker charges

Seller fees come in two kinds, and the total depends on both.

  • A listing fee, paid up front or monthly. Acquire's pricing page lists $25 to $100 a month, and Flippa's lists $29 for its entry listing.
  • A success fee, a share of the sale price paid at closing. Flippa's page shows 10%, Microns' 6% to 10%, Acquire's 6% to 8%, and TrustMRR's a flat 3% split with the buyer.
  • A broker, such as Empire Flippers, FE International or Quiet Light, handles the sale for you; ask each one for its fee in writing before you sign.

Questions founders ask

Acquire.com or Flippa: which is better for selling a SaaS?

Acquire, for a SaaS with steady revenue; Flippa, for any online business, including small sites, apps and domains. Acquire's pricing page lists a monthly listing fee and a closing fee of 6% to 8%; Flippa's lists listings from $29 and a 10% success fee. Compare the total on your own sale price.

What fees do startup marketplaces charge?

A listing fee, a success fee or both. The fees each marketplace states are on its record here, quoted from its pricing page. A few, like SideProjectors, say they charge nothing.

Where can I sell a micro-SaaS?

Microns, Acquire, TrustMRR and SideProjectors all take small software businesses. Microns says it wants projects at least 5 months old with paying customers; TrustMRR needs your revenue connected through a payment provider.

Should I use a broker or a marketplace?

A marketplace for a smaller sale you can run yourself; a broker for a larger one, where someone finding buyers, pricing and handling the paperwork is worth the fee. This list has both, and each record says which it is.

How is a SaaS valued?

Usually as a multiple of its yearly profit or revenue. The multiple goes up with steady growth, low churn, many small customers rather than a few big ones, and a product that runs without the founder. Flippa's pages, for one, offer a free valuation to start from.

Are listings on a startup marketplace public?

Partly. Buyers usually see a summary in public and the details after they sign up or sign an NDA. Flippa's pricing page offers confidentiality with an NDA as an add-on, and Acquire's says buyers can browse public listings on a basic plan.

Can I sell a startup with no revenue?

On some marketplaces. SideProjectors shows some listings as pre-launch or pre-revenue, while Microns says it does not accept pre-revenue projects. Expect a much lower price without revenue.

Is it free to list a startup for sale?

On a few. 3 of the 11 marketplaces we checked list you for free; the rest charge a listing fee, a success fee or both, or do not say.

How long does it take to sell a startup?

It varies with the price and how ready your numbers are. A small project with simple numbers can sell quickly; a larger SaaS goes through questions, checks and a handover that take longer.

What do buyers want to see?

Clean monthly numbers, a clear reason you are selling, how customers find the product, and what it takes to run it each week. Have them written before your first buyer call.

How we checked The full method

How we checked: from Oct 14 to 30, 2026 our checker opened each startup marketplace's home page, its submit page and up to six real listings, without AI. A price, a review time or a badge rule counts only when the place's own page states it, and a link counts only when we read it on real listings. "Not known" means we could not confirm it, not that it is missing.
