Yes, we are genuinely a zero-fee platform. There are no subscription fees, success fees, or any other charges for discovering and acquiring or investing in companies through our platform. However, if you decide to acquihire a company, there is a fee equivalent to 1 month's CTC of the key leadership.

After expressing interest in a company, the designated representative of that company receives prompt notification along with your company description. The decision to accept or reject your interest rests with the seller. In the event of acceptance, a connecting email is automatically generated, enabling a call to delve deeper into discussions and share additional information.

Done Deal has established partnerships with trusted service providers to handle all the necessary due diligence and legal procedures for closing a deal. If you lack the required resources, you can easily access these services through our partner program at a pre-decided fee.

If you can't find the ideal company on the platform, simply navigate to the "Create a Mandate" button at the bottom right of your browse screen. Fill in the information, and our scouts will be activated to find you the right fit based on your requirements, all at no cost to you. Rest assured, the mandates you create are anonymized by our teams before being made public. We prioritize your privacy and never reveal your name.

Done Deal is a full-suite operating system to help start-ups succeed. This has been built ground up by founders who understand what a start-up needs to succeed and we want to provide you the best quality service in an easy, transparent manner.

Our first offering was to help companies get acquired by letting them list anonymously on the platform and get bids to unlock their maximum value. Selling your start-up is a BIG decision. We understand there might never be the perfect time, but the right partner might be out there right now looking for a company just like yours.

In our experience, fundraising works best when you don't need it, and it's the same with acquisitions. Exploring fundraising or getting acquired takes time and effort for a founder, and we don't want to let this distract you from your core focus - running your start-up. Our platform will make your fund raise or acquisition easy, fast and hassle free.

We are constantly working to add more features to enable start-up success, including enabling acquisition and growth financing, connecting you to the best services (branding, legal, PR, financing) to improve your metrics, helping you find a mentor who has sold their own start-up in your sector and other tools to help you grow and unlock value.

When we started Done Deal we were clear on one thing, we are founder-first and your trust means everything to us.
‍
We DO NOT charge a monthly retainer or an upfront one time listing fees.
We DO NOT charge the investor to search for sellers or charge them for acquiring a start-up. We want to make it easier for buyers to come find you.

Companies will look for an acquisition at various points of time in their growth cycle, we want to make it easy and frictionless so that both sellers and buyers find each other at the right time. We charge a flat success fee which is clearly mentioned in the engagement letter you enter with us. The fee is linked to the value you sell your company for, and payable to us only when you get money in the bank.
