We believe that scarcity, not visibility, drives value.
Most platforms broadcast your business to the world, alerting competitors and unsettling staff. We do the opposite. We operate a "Private Access" environment where access is strictly limited, ensuring privacy for the seller and limited exclusivity for the buyer.
Private. Anonymous. Free.
Selling your life's work shouldn't feel like a public auction. The platform anonymises your data and limits access to a maximum of four registered buyers at any one time. This creates a "sanctuary" environment where you can transfer stewardship of your business without the chaos of the open market.
We don't ask you to fill out endless forms. Listing with us can be completed in minutes, not months. Your Companies House registration number is looked up against public registry data as part of the listing process.
Your privacy is our priority. Before your listing goes live, our system automatically "fuzzes" your location, hides your business name, and bands your revenue figures. Buyers see the opportunity, but they can't identify your specific business until you grant permission.
This is our unique model. We strictly limit the number of active buyers for your business to four slots. You aren't managing 50 conversations. You are managing a queue of up to four serious investors who know that if they hesitate, they lose their slot. This scarcity preserves your business's value and dignity.
Listing is free. We monetise the buyer's demand, not the seller's exit.
Low risk opportunities. Limited competition. High velocity.
Stop sifting through garbage listings. Deal Exchange is designed for professional search funders, PE associates, and serious investors. We strip away the noise and give you raw, structured data. The catch? You have to move fast.
Our dashboard mimics the high-density environment of a professional trading terminal. Use keyboard shortcuts and advanced filters to instantly scan opportunities by EBITDA, Sector, and Revenue. All financial data is structured and normalised.
Every listing displays a live "Odometer" showing remaining slots.
Once the 4th slot is taken, you are locked out and placed on a waitlist. If you see an opportunity you like, you must reserve your position immediately.
Securing a slot is free, but requires immediate action. You will digitally sign an embedded NDA to unlock access to the opportunities you find. Unless stated otherwise, these sellers do NOT have representation from brokers or advisors. Treat them as off-market opportunities.
When you find the right asset, you initiate the Heads of Terms (HoT). Upon signing HoT, you pay a £500 fee. This locks the listing — the other buyers get locked out and you now have the exclusive right to complete the purchase. Upon successful acquisition, a standard 1% success fee applies based on the Total Transaction Value.
We don't charge for visibility. We charge for commitment.
Traditional brokers charge monthly retainers or heavy upfront marketing fees. We have inverted the model. We monetize the demand, not the supply. This ensures our interests are perfectly aligned with a successful transaction.
£0.00
You have built the value; you shouldn't have to pay to prove it. We believe that a high-quality business is its own currency. Therefore, the entire process from listing to completion is entirely free for the business owner.
No Listing Fees
It costs nothing to enter your business into our "Vault".
No Marketing Retainers
We do not charge you to find buyers. Our "Scarcity Engine" attracts them automatically.
No Exit Tax
We do not deduct fees from your final sale price. We monetise the buyer's entry, protecting your exit yield.
Our Promise: We are paid only when the system works. Specifically, we are paid by the investor who recognises the value of the asset you have built.
Performance-Based
We provide the opportunities. In exchange, we charge for exclusivity and success. We do not charge for "looking."
You should conduct your own due diligence before you commit capital.
Payable upon signing Heads of Terms (HoT). This payment:
Payable only upon successful transaction completion. Calculated as 1% of the final Total Transaction Value.
Most platforms make money by selling "leads" or charging sellers to list on a noisy bulletin board. This encourages spam and attracts "tire kickers". We built the "Skin in the Game" model:
The Tire-Kicker Filter
By charging the buyer a £500 fee at the Heads of Terms stage, we filter out non-serious browsers. If a buyer pays, the Seller knows they are serious.
Protected Valuation
Because the Seller pays nothing, they are under no pressure to accept a low-ball offer just to cover their listing costs.
True Exclusivity
The buyer's fee buys them a "Private Treaty" environment. You aren't bidding in a chaotic auction; you are paying to clear the room and deal directly with the owner.
Whether you are exiting a legacy or acquiring one, clarity is our currency. Below are the answers to the most common questions regarding our process, fees, and rules of engagement.
There is no catch. We have inverted the traditional broker model. You have built the asset; we don't think you should pay to prove its value.
We monetise the buyer's demand, not the seller's exit.
No, we are not providing you with any advice or assistance in the process of selling your business aside from providing the platform (hence why we do not charge).
Scarcity drives value. Most brokers "broadcast" your business to hundreds of people, which can alert competitors and unsettle staff. We do the opposite. We grant access to a maximum of four registered buyers at any one time. This creates a competitive "Private Treaty" environment where buyers know they must act fast and offer their best price to secure the deal.
We use a "double-blind" intake system. Your initial listing is an anonymised "Opportunity Notice". It describes what you are (e.g., "Logistics Firm in the Midlands") but not who you are. A buyer only learns your identity after they have been approved by you and formally allocated a slot.
We do not charge for looking. However, once you agree to terms, we require skin in the game.
Upon successful completion, a fee of 1.0% of the Total Transaction Value (TTV) applies.
We calculate fees based on the Enterprise Value of the deal, not just the cash handed over on Day 1. TTV includes:
We do not flood the market. For any given Opportunity, we grant an "Allocation" to a maximum of Four (4) prospective buyers alongside you. These slots are allocated on a strict first-come, first-served basis.
Our agreement includes a specific Non-Circumvention clause. If you (or an affiliate) complete an acquisition with a Target we introduced within 24 months of the introduction date, the full Success Fee is legally payable. This applies even if initial negotiations fail and you resume them later directly with the seller.
No. We act solely as an Introducer. We are not agents, brokers, or financial advisors to either party. You are responsible for conducting your own due diligence and valuation.
