About the marketplace
The Small Business Marketplace helps owners present digital businesses priced at $50,000 or less and gives buyers a consistent way to compare what exists, what earns, what transfers, and what still needs verification.
Our scope
SBM is designed for smaller acquisitions across software, websites, ecommerce, digital products, newsletters, and repeatable online services. Sellers pay $9.99 per month for an active listing. Buyers browse for free, and SBM does not charge a seller success fee.
Before publication
We check the seller account, the person's authority to list the business, evidence of control over the website or primary asset, required listing fields, obvious duplicate content, and prohibited or unsafe language before a listing can publish.
Information quality
Financial figures, workload, traffic, customer details, and operating claims are seller reported unless a listing says otherwise. SBM may review submitted evidence for completeness or consistency, but it does not audit, value, guarantee, or endorse a business.
Buyer responsibility
Qualified buyers contact sellers directly. Buyers and sellers are responsible for diligence, professional advice, contracts, payment, escrow, taxes, transfer, and closing. SBM does not act as a broker, attorney, accountant, investment adviser, valuation provider, or escrow service.
Marketplace maintenance
We may request corrections, pause a listing after a credible report, or remove content that violates the marketplace standards. Sellers can update, withdraw, mark sold, or cancel renewal from their account.
How to evaluate a listing
Review the business itself, dated financial and demand evidence, operating workload, technical and vendor dependencies, ownership and transfer restrictions, and the seller's proposed handoff before deciding whether an opportunity fits.
