Selling a SaaS business under $10M in 2026

The best marketplaces and newsletters for buying and selling online businesses in 2026, current fees and all. Bookmark it.

You already know the case for buying over building, and you don't need another lecture on how to read a P&L or verify traffic. What you need is a clean, current map of where the good deals are, and the people and tools that help you find them before everyone else does.

That's what this is. The marketplaces worth checking, and the newsletter that land deals in your inbox.


Marketplaces

Flippa

Running since 2009, it's the oldest and largest marketplace for online businesses, and possibly the best place to start if you're looking for a broad selection: websites, e-commerce, SaaS, apps, newsletters. Valuations, verified financials and escrow are built in. Ranges deals from roughly $5,000 to $500,000 and up.

  • Seller: $49–$499 listing fee, plus a success fee — ~10% under $50k, 7.5% to $100k, 5% above
  • Buyer: no platform fee (escrow costs apply)

Acquire

Founded in 2020 by Andrew Gazdecki. It's the go-to marketplace for bootstrapped software, and it curates listings so there's less junk to wade through. You get free valuations, NDAs, escrow, and a real person moving the deal along.

  • Seller: small monthly listing fee, plus a ~6–8% closing fee on sale
  • Buyer: paid plan to message sellers, plus a small fee at close

Microns

A curated marketplace for small, profitable startups and side projects - micro-SaaS, apps, and content businesses mostly under $100,000. Because it's small and curated, you tend to deal with founders directly.

  • Seller: free to list; Successful exit 10% from $1k; 8% from 10k; 6% from $100k
  • Buyer: free & paid membership for access

TrustMRR

A marketplace for SaaS, mobile apps, and other digital businesses built around the idea of verified revenue. It connects to payments processors like Stripe and Paddle to confirm a seller's numbers, so you're not trusting a screenshot.

  • Seller & buyer: flat 3% closing fee split 50/50 (1.5% each), paid at close
  • Plus Escrow.com fees on top (~4–6% all-in), also split
  • Optional: paid listing tiers ($29–$2,499) for extra exposure

Little Exits

  • Built for indie hackers and creators, and it's the friendliest place for your first purchase of small apps, sites, newsletters, communities and courses under $100,000. Prices are low and the businesses are simple enough to understand in an afternoon
  • Seller: $0.99 submission fee under $1k ($15 above), plus a 9.5% success fee on sale
  • Buyer: paid membership to message sellers and make offers

Side Projectors

  • No fees — zero commission; sellers keep 100% of the sale

Motion Invest

  • Seller: no listing fee; success fee 20% under $20k, 15% from $20k–$50k
  • Buyer: no separate fee (pays the listed price)

Investors Club

A curated marketplace for profitable content sites, blogs, adsense websites, affiliate websites, SaaS and e-commerce. Every listing is manually reviewed and approved before it goes live. And there are no stale listings meaning sellers must renew every 3 months. Businesses that have sold or gone dark won't linger on the platform.

  • Seller: no listing or success fee — free to sell
  • Buyer: free to browse; optional membership ($747 one-time or $247/year) for more access

Empire Flipper

One of the most established, vetted marketplaces. This is where people head when they're spending more. However it's very strict - it turns down most submissions and wants at least $2,000 a month in profit and a year of history so listings are higher quality. Listings are generally $100,000 and up.

  • Seller: 15% commission on the first $700,000, scaling down above that
  • Buyer: no fee

Deal sourcing

Quiet LIght

A brokerage and M&A advisory working only with internet businesses in the $100,000 to $25M range. Success-fee only, no upfront cost, tiered from about 10% down as deals get bigger. Its advisors keep a large vetted-buyer list, so a strong listing meets warm buyers fast.

Dealsource

Works the buyer's side: sources deals for a private network and curates the strongest each week across AI, SaaS, media, digital businesses, and premium domains.

Website Closers

One of the larger tech and internet brokerages, running since 2013 and handling everything from around $500,000 up into eight figures.

FE International

The best-known M&A advisor in online business: sole advisor on 1,500+ exits worth around $1 billion since 2010.

Latona's

A boutique M&A brokerage focused on established, cash-flow-positive web properties, from roughly $20,000 in annual profit up into the mid-market.

Newsletterrs

The Asking Price

Daily rundown of curated listings under $1000,000 across software, AI, media, and premium domains. This one's great for people who want a steadier stream of quality deal flow rather than a weekly send.

Dealsource

A weekly roundup of online business deals, mostly under $100,000 pulled out of the noise across the market. Good for staying on top of the sub-$100k end without watching every site yourself.

Kumo (Take Five)

The widest net. Kumo pulls listings from hunders of brokers and every major marketplace into one place and sends daily or weekly alerts matched to your filters (with quick AI summaries).

The Business Inquirer

A free newsletter, twice a week, with a curated list of acquisition opportunities and short analysis of each. It's independent, not tied to any marketplace which makes it an honest place to start.

The Website Flip

Run by an operator who's flipped 200+ sites, this one mixest content-site deal flow with practical breakdowns of how to value and grow what you buy. Best for content and affiliate sites.

Empire Flippers Newsletter

The marketplace's own digest. Pre-vetted listings plus quarterly reports on where prices are headed.


Fees move, platforms re-brand, and new marketplaces pop up every year. So, this is where things stand in 2026, not a fixed list. Know one that belongs here? Leave it in the comments.

    Very interesting and informative article :)
    The asking price is certainly my favourite deal flow newsletter

    One thing I find interesting about acquisition markets is that the value of a business isn't determined only by the business itself.

    It's also shaped by whether the right buyer is likely to discover it at the right moment. Liquidity ends up being part of the product, not just the transaction.
