From valuation to closing in six steps

Every stage is guided: you always know what happens next, what to prepare and who is looking at your company.

01

1. Get a free valuation of your company

In two minutes you get a value range in CHF based on EBITDA, sector, canton, growth and revenue recurrence. It's the starting point for setting a credible price and not wasting time on off-market negotiations.

  • Multiples by Swiss sector
  • Explanation of each factor
  • Exportable to PDF
02

2. Fill out the guided listing

An 8-step wizard with checkboxes and structured fields: registry data, figures, customers, staff, real estate, reason for sale, terms and confidentiality. No endless free text: the system builds the listing for you.

  • Auto-save
  • Preview before publishing
  • You can stay anonymous
03

3. Verification and publication

We check data consistency and the UID. The listing is published with the «Verified» badge and indexed on cantonal and sector pages, where buyers really search.

  • Trust badge
  • Local SEO pages
  • Online in minutes
04

4. NDA and electronic signature

Anyone who wants to dig deeper first signs the confidentiality agreement with electronic signature and OTP. Only after signing do they see sensitive documents: you decide folder by folder what to show.

  • OTP with limited attempts
  • Document versioning
  • Log of every access
05

5. Data Room and due diligence

Financial statements, accounting, contracts, staff, real estate: nine folders with None / Read / Full permissions. The buyer only sees what you authorise, when you authorise it.

  • Granular permissions
  • Tracked downloads
  • Immediate revocation
06

6. Offers, counteroffers, closing

Offers arrive structured: amount, payment form, earn-out, conditions precedent, timeline. You compare offers side by side, make a counteroffer highlighting the differences and reach contract signature.

  • Offer comparison
  • Counteroffer with diff
  • Contract signed online

Flex, Professional, Unlimited: the real differences

Publishing your listing is free. The difference is how you access buyer contacts: with Flex you pay only for the contacts you unlock, with Professional and Unlimited they are all included.

CHF 0

+ CHF 25 per unlocked contact

You pay only when a qualified buyer actually contacts you.

  • Listing published and indexed: free, with no commercial expiry
  • You receive every enquiry: preview, qualification score and message
  • Name, email and phone stay masked until you unlock
  • Unlock only the profiles you care about: CHF 25 once per contact
  • No commission on the sale price, no subscription
Flex

Simulate your cost with Flex

Receiving enquiries is free. You pay CHF 25 only for the contacts you unlock, after reading the message and the qualification score.

Buyer qualification

Every contact arrives with a score, not as an anonymous email

When you enable qualification in the publishing form, anyone writing through the contact form must answer seven questions, including financial ones. The answers produce a percentage score you see before unlocking anything.

01

Enable the option

In the publishing wizard, with one toggle: “Require buyer qualification”.

02

The buyer answers

Seven questions: budget, funding, own funds, timing, experience, advisor, proof of funds.

03

You get the score

A weighted 0–100% score with every answer, before spending a franc.

04

You decide

Unlock only credible profiles. The rest stay masked and cost nothing.

Try it: answer like a buyer would

The score updates in real time, exactly as you see it in the dashboard.
