Bowora charges 0% commission, but payment, escrow, contracts, taxes, and transfer work remain the parties' responsibility.

How to set a minimum acceptable offer

Your minimum should be a floor you are willing to discuss, not a fantasy asking price. Start from verified MRR, margins, growth, owner dependence, and comparable indie SaaS outcomes, then leave room for diligence findings.

A clear floor filters unserious inquiries. Update it if metrics change, and never publish a number you would regret discussing in writing.

Thinking about ownership before you sell

Whether you eventually sell often traces back to how the company was funded. If you are still deciding between staying bootstrapped or raising outside capital, see the Bowora Guides comparison.
