A one-year-old SaaS platform based in the UK provides a service for consumers to compare grocery prices and make purchases online. This comparison service generates revenue through affiliate links, where commissions are earned from users who use the site to buy products. An impressive 98% of its traffic comes from search engines, with the platform ranking on over 1,000 keywords in the top positions, allowing it to compete with major industry players.
The website operates in an automated mode, updating prices, news, and alerts without requiring significant daily maintenance—only around one to two hours are needed for checking reports and analytics. Potential growth opportunities for the business include incorporating a barcode scanner for price comparison, developing custom technologies, or creating a mobile application.
The current owner is looking to sell the business for immediate financial gain. The business would be ideal for individuals residing in the UK or US interested in establishing an automated online income source. The platform is ready to operate with the integration of the buyer's affiliate links, thus commencing revenue generation without delay.
Included assets in the sale are domain names, a website database, hosting accounts, necessary plugins and software, and a mailing list of 35,000 contacts. Additional support from the seller will be available for three months post-sale, ensuring a smooth transition for the new owner.
