Overview

<p>My product is an established NFC and digital business-card technology business that combines physical NFC products with digital business profiles and smart QR solutions.</p><p>The business was built to modernize traditional business cards and make sharing business and contact information faster and more convenient. This business has evolved into a complete ecosystem consisting of NFC-enabled physical cards, digital visiting cards, digital business profiles and smart QR menus.</p><p>Customers can share their information through an NFC tap or digital link, while digital profiles can be updated without replacing the physical card. The second platform also provides lead-capture functionality for businesses.</p><p><b>Key highlights:</b></p><ul> <li>Annual revenue - USD 1,494</li> <li>Annual profit - USD 1,000</li> <li>Churn rate - Not formally tracked. The majority of customers purchase products with approximately 5-year validity rather than monthly subscriptions, making traditional SaaS churn less applicable. Customer retention has remained relatively stable, with no significant increase in churn observed over the last six months.</li> <li>LTV - Approximately USD 12 – USD 25 per customer/card based on typical initial product revenue, with potential additional lifetime revenue from repeat purchases and subscriptions. A formal customer-level LTV is not currently tracked separately.</li> <li>CAC - Not formally tracked as a standalone metric. The business has historically relied significantly on organic website traffic, direct sales, referrals and repeat customers, with limited paid marketing expenditure. As a result, there is no reliable historical CAC figure to report.</li> <li>Business margin - Approximately 70% gross margin, based on the current estimate that around 30% of revenue is attributable to product, fulfilment and other direct expenses.</li> <li>600 active customer/card relationships</li> <li>5 years average remaining validity across the active customer base</li> <li>10 recurring POWERWEB subscribers</li> <li>Around USD 10 / year recurring subscription price where applicable</li> <li>USD 12 – USD 25 typical revenue per card</li> <li>&lt;US$30/month server infrastructure cost for the existing customer base</li> <li>Complete relevant source code and custom-developed plugins</li> <li>5-star Google rating</li> <li>Multinational customer base</li> <li>(Optional) Physical + digital product ecosystem, including NFC cards, digital profiles and QR solutions.</li> </ul> <p><b>Team</b></p><ul> <li>The business is primarily founder-operated. The founder is responsible for product strategy, technology and software development, website and platform management, business operations, customer support, product management and overall administration.</li> </ul> <p>Production and specialized requirements are supported through the existing business infrastructure and external vendors where required.</p><p>The business operates with a lean structure, supported by automation and custom-developed software. Following acquisition, the buyer will take full responsibility for ongoing operations, technology, maintenance, customer support and management.</p><p><b>Tech Stack</b></p><ul> <li>WordPress — Core website and content management.</li> <li>WooCommerce — E-commerce, products, orders and customer transactions.</li> <li>PHP — Backend development and custom business logic.</li> <li>MySQL — Customer, product, order and application data.</li> <li>JavaScript — Interactive website features, user interfaces and custom functionality.</li> <li>HTML/CSS — Front-end structure and styling.</li> <li>REST APIs — Integrations and communication between services and platforms.</li> <li>Custom WordPress/WooCommerce Plugins — Business-specific functionality, automation and internal workflows.</li> <li>NFC Technology — Tap-based access to digital business profiles and contact information.</li> <li>QR Technology — QR-based access to digital profiles and SCANMENUS.</li> <li>Cloud/Web Server Infrastructure — Hosting and operating the digital platforms and customer profiles.</li> <li>Payment Gateway Integrations — Online product and subscription payments.</li> </ul> <p>The acquisition includes the relevant source code and custom-developed software, allowing the buyer to continue development and maintenance using its own technical resources.</p><p><b>Marketing and growth</b></p><p>The main growth activities included website-based sales, organic search visibility, direct customer outreach, product-focused digital marketing, customer referrals and repeat purchases.</p><p>Growth was driven primarily by demonstrating the practical benefits of NFC business cards and digital business profiles, supported by responsive customer service and quick product delivery.</p><p>These activities helped build an active customer base of approximately 600 cards/customers, including multinational customers. Customer referrals and repeat purchases have also contributed to ongoing sales, while the existing customer base provides opportunities for additional POWERWEB subscriptions and repeat product purchases.</p><p><b>Revenue and profit</b></p><ul> <li>The product operates a hybrid product and digital-services revenue model, combining one-time NFC/digital product sales with recurring subscriptions.</li> </ul> <p><b>Revenue</b></p><ul> <li>Typical revenue per card/customer: approximately US$12–$25</li> <li>Recurring subscription: approximately USD 10/year where applicable</li> <li>Approximately 10 customers currently generate recurring subscription revenue</li> <li>Approximately 600 active cards/customer relationships</li> <li>Approximately 5 years of remaining validity across the active customer base</li> </ul> <p><b>Profitability</b></p><ul> <li>Estimated business margin: approximately 70%</li> <li>Approximately 30% of revenue is estimated to be attributable to product, fulfilment and other direct expenses</li> <li>Existing server infrastructure costs less than US$30/month for the current customer base</li> </ul> <p><b>Return on investment</b></p><p>The payback period depends on the buyer's ability to monetize the existing customer base and scale sales, so no fixed or guaranteed payback period is claimed.</p><p>The acquisition provides approximately 600 active customer/card relationships, around five years of remaining validity, established digital platforms, proprietary source code, custom plugins and product assets. The existing customer base and infrastructure provide a ready foundation for generating revenue without the time and development cost of building the business from scratch.</p><p>A buyer can accelerate payback through B2B and corporate sales, repeat purchases, subscriptions, international expansion, partnerships, reseller channels and stronger digital marketing. The existing server infrastructure also has a low operating cost of less than US$30/month for the current customer base.</p><p><b>Startup assets</b></p><p>The acquisition includes the following assets:</p><ul> <li>Around 600 active customer/card relationships</li> <li>Around 5 years of remaining validity for the active customer base</li> <li>3 established platforms</li> <li>Complete relevant source code for the platforms and custom-developed software</li> <li>Custom WordPress/WooCommerce plugins developed for the business</li> <li>The brand and relevant digital assets</li> <li>Relevant domains and websites included in the final transaction</li> <li>Existing digital business profiles associated with active customers</li> <li>Customer data required to continue the services, subject to applicable laws and transaction terms</li> <li>NFC/card product designs</li> <li>Product previews and mockups</li> <li>Manufacturing and production blueprints</li> <li>Existing website, hosting and digital infrastructure</li> <li>Existing product configurations and supporting technical assets</li> <li>Customer-facing product and service infrastructure</li> </ul> <p>The buyer will receive the relevant source code and assets required to operate and continue developing the platforms. After acquisition, the buyer will be fully responsible for hosting, software maintenance, development, security, customer support and day-to-day management.</p><p>The sale does not include ongoing technical or operational involvement from the seller after completion.</p><p><b>Risks</b></p><p>The main risks are customer retention, technology maintenance, competition, sales growth and the transition of operations to a new owner.</p><p>Technology risk: The platforms require ongoing hosting, security updates and maintenance. This can be minimized by transferring the complete relevant source code and custom plugins to the buyer, allowing the buyer to use its own technical team.</p><p>Customer service risk: The existing customer base has remaining service commitments. The buyer should establish its own customer support and operational processes immediately after acquisition to maintain service continuity.</p><p>Revenue growth risk: Existing revenue is relatively modest and growth will depend on the buyer's ability to acquire new customers and monetize the existing customer base. This can be addressed through stronger B2B sales, digital marketing, partnerships, international expansion and recurring subscriptions.</p><p>Competition risk: The NFC and digital business-card market is competitive. The buyer can mitigate this through existing customer base, technology, product designs, customer support, quick delivery capabilities and established platforms.</p><p>Transition risk: A structured transfer of the platforms, customer data and relevant assets can reduce operational disruption. Following acquisition, the buyer will be responsible for all ongoing technology, operations and customer management.</p><p><b>Summary</b></p><p>The acquisition saves a buyer the time, development cost and operational effort required to build the technology, customer base, product ecosystem and infrastructure independently.</p><p>For a strategic buyer with existing sales, manufacturing, marketing or SaaS capabilities, my business can provide a ready-made foundation that can be integrated into an existing business and scaled further.</p><p>✅ $1,494 TTM revenue</p><p>✅ 600 customers</p><p>✅ Business model: SaaS+One-time sales</p><p>✅ Built with WordPress, JavaScript, PHP</p>
