Before you start
- A free SideProjectors account (submitting requires login).
- Clear screenshots of the main screens, plus a live demo link or a short walkthrough video if you can.
- Metrics if you have them: revenue, monthly visitors, users or downloads. Pre-revenue is fine if you say so.
- A list of what transfers to the buyer (code, domain, accounts, design files) and what you keep.
- Notes on any third-party code, artwork or models and their licences.
- Your price in USD, or a decision to set a minimum, mark it negotiable or invite offers.
- English copy checked for spelling and grammar.
How to list on SideProjectors, step by step
Confirm your project qualifies
You must own a working project. Ideas with nothing built, other people's projects, copies or reskins, scraped databases, gambling, services and physical products, and adult, political or religious content are not accepted.
Pick the listing type
Log in and click Submit a project. Choose a sale listing, a showcase to get feedback, or a co-founder search if you need a partner to finish it.
Answer every question
Fill in the form accurately and concisely. If the project earns nothing yet, choose No, it's pre-revenue in the Revenue step and describe what works and what does not.
Spell out the deal
A sale is read as an exclusive transfer unless you say otherwise. For templates or starter kits, state clearly that you sell a non-exclusive licence and what the buyer may do with it.
Add images and a demo
Upload high-quality screenshots that reflect the current state of the project and add a demo link or video. A listing with no screenshot takes longer to approve.
Set the price
Prices are in USD. Choose a fixed price, a minimum, a negotiable price, or hide it and invite offers.
Submit for moderation
Check spelling and grammar, then submit. Paid faster approval is optional if you are in a hurry.
Handle buyers yourself
Buyers contact you through your SideProjectors inbox. Share code only when you are ready, use the NDA feature if you want one signed, and agree payment directly with the buyer.
Why submissions get rejected
- Poor spelling and grammar.
- The listing is not in English.
- The listing lacks details.
- Poor image quality, or the project itself is poor quality.
- Ideas with nothing built, projects that belong to someone else, or copies and reskins.
- Scraped data or user databases sold without users' consent.
- Sports betting and gambling, services and physical products, adult, political, religious or offensive content, malware, or IP infringement.
Tips that make a difference
- Never paste source code in the listing; share it with a serious buyer later, under NDA if needed.
- SideProjectors does not hold funds or mediate disputes, so use a contract and a payment method you trust; do your own due diligence.
- Several related projects can be sold together in one listing to one buyer.
- Free members can contact only 3 project owners a day, so reply quickly to every message you get.
- Say whether you offer support after the sale; it is one of the first things buyers ask.
- You may let an AI assistant draft the listing and answer buyers, but the account must be yours and you are responsible for what it sends.

Questions people ask
Is SideProjectors free?
Yes. Listing a project is free and SideProjectors takes no commission when it sells. Optional extras such as faster approval cost money.
Can I sell a project with no revenue on SideProjectors?

No. SideProjectors does not take payment or hold funds; the buyer and seller agree terms and arrange payment between themselves.
Why was my SideProjectors listing rejected?
Common reasons are poor spelling or grammar, a non-English listing, missing details, low-quality images or a low-quality project, or content that breaks the terms.
