Mission
Make app exits and acquisitions clear enough to act on
Subscription apps can be valuable businesses, but a deal only works when the numbers, buyer quality, transfer route, and risk profile are handled with discipline. Approck exists to make that process practical for both sides.
Vision
Turn subscription apps into a transparent asset class
We want founders, buyers, and passive investors to work from verified data rather than screenshots and guesswork. That means better sale outcomes, safer acquisitions, and portfolios that can be reviewed from source systems.
Two ways Approck works
The same operating knowledge supports two related paths: a specialized marketplace for individual deals and managed portfolios for investors who want ownership without daily operations.
For founders
A sale process built for privacy, price discipline, and transfer clarity
We help indie developers and mobile studios prepare the asset, frame valuation, screen buyers, coordinate negotiations, and keep the handover controlled through closing.
- Open marketplace listing or private mandate
- Valuation based on revenue quality, traffic, and transfer risk
- Buyer conversations with investors who understand recurring revenue
- Support for account sale, App Transfer, documentation, and handover
For investors
Verified app exposure without building an acquisition desk
We source, evaluate, acquire, and operate subscription app portfolios for investors. The investor owns the assets while Approck handles market work, transfer, support, reporting, and operations.
- Direct acquisitions through the marketplace
- Managed portfolio format from typical $300K allocations
- Revenue, retention, traffic, and risk review before acquisition
- Monthly reporting and operational management after transfer
Verification
How a serious app deal moves through Approck
The process is designed to reduce wasted calls, inflated expectations, and transfer surprises before either side commits serious time.
- 01
Metrics and context review
We review app category, revenue, retention, traffic source, store history, and the seller or investor objective.
- 02
Valuation and route
We frame the likely price range and choose the right path: open listing, private mandate, direct acquisition, or managed portfolio.
- 03
Buyer or asset matching
Founders meet qualified buyers. Investors see assets or portfolios that match budget, category, geography, and risk tolerance.
- 04
Diligence and execution
Revenue, traffic, transfer assets, payment structure, escrow, and legal path are checked before closing.
- 05
Transfer and operations
We coordinate accounts, code, analytics, payouts, documentation, and ongoing management where Approck operates the portfolio.
Principles
The standards behind the work
Every buyer, founder, and investor should be able to see the standards behind the process.
Verification over hype
Listings and portfolio candidates are judged by source data, revenue durability, traffic quality, and transfer readiness.
Founder confidentiality
Some assets need visibility. Others need a quiet private process. We choose the route around the seller's real constraints.
Buyer discipline
We prioritize qualified conversations with people who already understand subscription apps and recurring revenue.
Transfer clarity
The handover path is part of the deal, not an afterthought. Accounts, source code, analytics, policies, and access are mapped early.
Operator ownership
The team has operated mobile subscriptions, not just brokered them. That changes how risks and work after closing are assessed.
Transparent risk framing
Targets, historical payouts, and valuation ranges are treated as inputs for diligence, not guarantees or investment advice.
Operating network
Built inside the mobile app ecosystem
Approck grew from a network of app operators, developer communities, and transaction experience. That gives the team access to founders, buyers, operators, and investors who already understand the market.
