Guides
Short, sourced explanations of the numbers and checks you see on Ventmark: what MRR and collections mean, what verification proves and what it doesn't, and how selling a small SaaS works. Each guide says when its facts were last checked.
Facts checked
- MRR vs 30-day collectionsMRR is the monthly value of active, paid subscriptions; 30-day collections are every payment received in the last 30 days. Definitions, worked examples in rupees and dollars, and why one is never called the other.
- Asking-price multipleWhat the multiple on a startup for sale means, how it is calculated from annualised 30-day collections, worked examples, and what it doesn't tell you.
- What verified revenue meansVerified revenue comes from payment data a founder connects with read-only access and chooses to share. What is checked, how fresh it must be, and what it doesn't prove.
- Merchant of recordA merchant of record sells your product to the customer in its own name and handles tax, refunds and chargebacks. How it differs from a payment gateway, with an example for an Indian founder selling abroad.
- Domain verificationEvery listing on Ventmark is published by someone who proved control of the startup's website domain. How it works (email code, a tag or file on the website, or a DNS record) and what it does not prove.
- Selling a small SaaS in IndiaThe steps to sell a small SaaS or online business from India: preparing numbers, finding buyers, asset vs share sale, documents, tax and FEMA caveats, with sources. Not legal or tax advice.
