Where to Sell Your SaaS Business in 2026
If you search "where to sell my SaaS," you'll mostly find results built for businesses doing real revenue — six-figure-ARR platforms with broker fees in the 10-15% range. That math doesn't work for a $300 MRR product; a 10% commission on a sale that nets you $3,000 barely covers the broker's time, let alone yours.
Brokers and M&A marketplaces
Good for businesses with meaningful, stable revenue where a 10-15% commission is worth the buyer network and negotiation help. Overkill — and expensive — for anything under a few thousand dollars a month in revenue.
Community posts and cold outreach
Free, but slow and noisy. Posting in a Slack group or subreddit gets attention from people just browsing, not necessarily people ready to pay. Without any filter for buyer intent, you end up doing a lot of unpaid customer support for tire-kickers.
Flat-fee marketplaces built for small SaaS
This is the gap SellMySaaS is built for: a one-time listing fee instead of a commission (currently $4.99 as a founders offer, regularly $9.99), no cut if you sell, and buyers who verify their email before a message reaches you. It won't replace a broker for a business doing serious revenue, but for a micro SaaS, it's the difference between a fair, fast process and either an expensive broker fee or an unfiltered public post.
The right venue really comes down to size: the bigger and more predictable the revenue, the more a broker's fee makes sense. Below that threshold, a flat, one-time fee and a bit of patience usually gets you to a real buyer faster.
