Why sell on
sideproject.in?

Built for Indian makers, not Silicon Valley deals

Every other acquisition marketplace is built for US businesses. They price in USD. They don't understand GST, UPI, or what it means to build a ₹2L SaaS from a tier-2 city in India.

sideproject.in is built from scratch for the Indian indie maker. Buyers here understand the local market, speak the same language, and aren't confused by Indian tax structures or INR valuations.

No upfront fees. Ever.

We don't charge you to list. We don't charge you a monthly subscription to keep your listing live. We don't have "featured listing" pay-to-play schemes.

We charge a small success fee only when a deal closes. We win when you win. That's the only alignment that makes sense.

Serious buyers, not tire-kickers

Our buyer community is made up of Indian entrepreneurs, developers, and digital business operators — people who understand what they're buying and have the intent to grow it.

Free accounts can only contact 1 seller. Pro buyers have skin in the game. The result: fewer "just curious" messages, more real conversations.

Your listing, your story

We don't sanitize your listing or strip it down to a spreadsheet. You write your own story — the problem you solved, the journey you took, why you're selling, what the buyer gets.

Revenue charts, traffic charts, tech stack, growth opportunities — all there. Buyers can see the real business, not a polished pitch deck.

Lower fees than every alternative

Competitor fees as of May 2025. sideproject.in charges 0% commission — revenue comes from buyer subscriptions only.

Built by makers, for makers

We've built and sold side projects ourselves. We know what it's like to spend 18 months on something, feel the burnout, and want to hand it off to someone who'll actually grow it.

We're not a VC-backed marketplace trying to become the "Shopify of acquisitions." We're a small team of indie makers building a home for other indie makers.
