Acquire.comReviews of acquire.com

I sold my business through Acquire.com (transaction 13157004). After the deal failed to close because of the buyer’s unauthorized actions, Acquire’s representative issued firm “legal” determinations directing who kept the money and the asset — then retracted them in writing, conceding Acquire is not a party to the agreement and “does not make binding legal determinations.” Acquire then refused to relist my business, telling me Escrow.com had confirmed restrictions on my account. Escrow.com confirmed in writing the opposite: my account is in good standing, with no restrictions, current or historical. When I showed Acquire this, they abandoned that reason and switched to vague “discretion,” calling it “final.” Their brokerage affiliate kept a US$440 broker fee on a transaction that never closed. I’m not writing this out of anger — every sentence above is documented. My experience is that Acquire gave a specific reason its own escrow partner contradicts, then changed the reason when challenged. I’d encourage other founders to keep written records of everything and to verify any claim Acquire attributes to a third party.

Do not list your SaaS business on Acquire unless you are comfortable with the possibility of others copying it. In my experience, the platform can feel less like a serious acquisition marketplace and more like a place where people browse proven business models and think, “Great idea. I’ll build the same thing and make it free.” If your business model is valuable, be careful about exposing too much of it there.

I sold my first SaaS (AIA Proof, an EU AI Act compliance tool) through Acquire.com and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. The platform made it easy to list, attract serious buyers, and manage the entire transaction. My buyer came through Acquire's marketplace, we negotiated the LOI directly on the platform, and the escrow process was smooth and transparent. Special thanks to Luther from the support team — he went above and beyond, helping reinstate my listing when it was initially flagged, and guiding me through the APA and closing process. Harold was also incredibly responsive and helpful. What impressed me most: the team genuinely cares about founders succeeding. They're responsive, professional, and proactive. I'm already planning to list more projects on the platform. If you're a solo founder or small team looking to sell a SaaS, I highly recommend Acquire.com. The process is well-structured, the support is excellent, and they deliver results.

We got an offer after 1.5 week of having our listing live. Great platform and very helpful team!

Luther has been very prompt in answering all my questions.

The marketplace works. If you own a small company like I did and want to sell it, you MUST try Acquire. The fee is fair, the support is fantastic! It might take some time to get people who show real interest in acquiring your company, so be patient.

Forgot to cancel my subscription at the and of the year and noticed the charge at the end of the month. Customer service replied pretty much instantly and refunded the full amount. Thanks!

Great support, friendly team.
