Selling your SaaS or app for USDC: a practical guide
Thinking of flipping a side project? Here's how to package, price, and hand over a digital business cleanly — and get paid without the wait.
You built something. It works, it has a few users, and you're ready to move on. Here's how to sell it cleanly on Escro and actually get paid.
1. Decide what you're selling
There are two kinds of listings on Escro:
- Licensable product — something you can sell over and over (a template, a script, a prompt pack, a boilerplate).
- One-of-a-kind asset — a unique sale that transfers ownership (a domain, a running SaaS, a finished app with its users).
Pick the right type up front; it sets buyer expectations.
2. Package the deliverable
Buyers pay for clarity. Whatever you're selling, make the handover obvious:
- Code/products: zip the repo, include a README, list the stack and the license.
- SaaS/businesses: prepare the transfer — repo access, domain, environment variables, a short runbook.
- Domains: be ready to push to the buyer's registrar.
On Escro, downloadable files are delivered automatically when escrow funds. For transfers, you'll provide handover details when you mark the order delivered.
3. Price it in USD, get paid in USDC
List your price in US dollars — Escro settles it in USDC, so there's no volatility between the sale and the payout. A $2,000 listing pays out $2,000 worth of USDC, not "whatever crypto was worth that day."
The flat platform fee is 1% (no subscription). Compare that to the 30–55% some marketplaces take from creators.
4. Let escrow do the trust work
You don't need to vet the buyer or chase a payment. Once they fund escrow, the money is committed. Deliver, wait out the short inspection window, and the funds release to you — instantly, anywhere in the world, with no chargeback risk afterward.
5. Build a reputation
Every completed sale earns you a verified-purchase review and builds your seller profile. The sellers who win on Escro are the ones who deliver clean handovers and clear docs. Do that, and buyers come back.
Ready? List your product and let escrow handle the rest.
