Which process fits your sale?
Consider Approck
You are selling a subscription mobile app and want a managed process: reconciled store and subscription data, prepared sale materials, screened buyers, and a coordinated handover.
Consider TrustMRR
You can connect a supported provider, prepare the app diligence yourself, and want a verified-revenue listing with integrated deal documents and escrow.
Approck vs TrustMRR: comparison table
| Metric | Approck | TrustMRR |
|---|---|---|
| Seller fit | Subscription mobile app founders and studios. | Startups with a supported payment-provider connection; RevenueCat support includes mobile apps. |
| Seller costs | No upfront fee; published seller success fee of 7–10%. Confirm the rate and fee base in your agreement. | 3% total closing fee split equally: 1.5% seller and 1.5% buyer. Escrow.com fees are additional and also split. Listing itself needs a paid plan upfront: $29 Starter, $199 Growth, or $499 Scale. |
| Revenue evidence | Store financial context, subscription analytics, traffic history, and technical/transfer materials. | Read-only provider connections verify aggregate revenue; that does not by itself verify profit, code, or transferability. |
| Deal support | Valuation guidance, buyer screening, negotiation support, and app transfer coordination. | Self-serve workflow: shared NDA, LOI, and purchase-agreement templates followed by integrated escrow; diligence and handover stay with the parties. |
| Payment and handover | Agree the payment provider, costs, milestones, and acceptance conditions for your deal; Approck coordinates the transfer. | Escrow.com integration; parties complete the agreed asset transfer before release. |
| Listing exposure | Buyer screening is part of the managed process; sale materials are prepared for qualified buyers. | Public verified-revenue profiles browsable without an account; Anonymous mode still leaves verified metrics, country, founding date, and founder profiles public. |
Compare seller cost with seller work
On a hypothetical $100,000 sale, the seller’s share of TrustMRR’s platform fee is $1,500, plus the seller’s share of escrow — on top of the $29–$499 listing plan paid upfront to list. Approck’s published success fee would be $7,000–$10,000 before separately agreed costs, with no upfront fee. The 3% TrustMRR headline is a combined fee, not a 3% seller-only charge.
The fee difference buys different work. On TrustMRR you do it yourself: prepare subscription cohorts, explain acquisition spend, screen buyers, and manage technical handover. Approck's success fee covers that work — valuation guidance, buyer screening, negotiation support, and transfer coordination. Compare written scopes and the total cost to each party.
What verified revenue still leaves to check
A connected revenue source is useful evidence, but a subscription app also has store fees, refunds, infrastructure costs, and potentially ongoing advertising. Separate gross revenue, store proceeds, recurring revenue metrics, and operating profit when presenting the business.
Test the transfer plan against the actual app and its dependencies. Source-code rights, backend ownership, analytics, domains, and subscription infrastructure need an agreed handover. Neither a revenue badge nor funded escrow proves that every asset can be transferred as proposed.
