Flipper allows buyers to discover and acquire businesses by creating an intent that outlines their requirements, including budget, industry, and preferences. Once submitted, Flipper matches your intent with relevant seller proposals. When you accept a suitable proposal, you’re introduced to the seller to begin discussions, request details, and evaluate the opportunity. From there, you negotiate directly with the seller and proceed toward closing the transaction, with Flipper facilitating the connection.

After your intent is matched with suitable sellers or proposals, you’ll have the opportunity to review key business details such as financial performance, operations, and growth potential. You can request additional information directly from the seller and carry out your own due diligence, which may include verifying financial records, assessing risks, and seeking professional advice, such as consulting with a lawyer, where necessary. Flipper provides the connection, but buyers are expected to carefully evaluate each opportunity before making a final decision and proceeding to close the transaction.

Buyers are required to pay a commitment fee of 0.5% of their intent value when they accept a proposal. This fee confirms serious intent and grants access to engage directly with the seller. The commitment fee is fully credited toward the final success fee if the deal closes, and in most cases, the fee is not refundable if the transaction is not completed. Having said that, there are no additional platform charges beyond this commitment, and final deal terms are agreed directly between buyer and seller.

Flipper allows sellers to submit a proposal describing their business, including relevant details such as industry, performance, etc. Once submitted, your proposal is matched with buyers whose intents align with your offering. Interested buyers can review your proposal, accept it, and engage directly with you to request additional information and conduct due diligence. From there, both parties negotiate and move toward closing, with Flipper acting as the bridge that connects you to qualified buyers.

Sellers on Flipper receive interest from buyers whose intents already align with their proposal, which helps filter out irrelevant or casual inquiries. Because buyers must clearly define what they are looking for before being matched, the conversations you receive are typically from individuals who have a genuine interest and the capacity to proceed. You also control the level of detail you share at each stage, allowing you to qualify buyers further through conversation before moving forward with negotiations and closing.

Sellers pay a success fee only when a deal is successfully completed. The success fee is calculated based on the intent value of the transaction: 10% for deals below ₦200,000,000, 8% for deals between ₦200,000,000 and ₦500,000,000, and 5% for deals above ₦500,000,000. This fee is paid at closing, ensuring that Flipper only earns when a transaction is successfully completed. There are no upfront listing fees, and the platform remains aligned with helping you close your deal efficiently.
