M&A Advisors for SaaS Companies and ISVs

733Park advises vertical SaaS companies and ISVs on exits and acquisitions, with a specialty most M&A firms lack: we understand the payments layer. For software companies that monetize payments, the payments economics often carry as much transaction value as the software itself, and buyers know it. Your advisor should too.

For more than 25 years, 733Park has done one thing: put payments, fintech, and SaaS deals together. We have closed more than 200 transactions representing over $10 billion in deal volume. Our clients have enterprise values from $2 million to $350 million, and every engagement is led personally by our founder. When you hire 733Park, you get the person who has done this for 25 years, not a junior associate.

Why payments fluency matters in a SaaS sale

An ISV with embedded payments is two businesses: a software company valued on ARR quality, and a payments business valued on residual quality. Advisors who only speak SaaS routinely undervalue or under-market the payments side. We have spent 25 years in payments M&A, so we price and position both.

What buyers pay for

  • Retention: net revenue retention and logo retention above all
  • Vertical dominance: owning a niche beats being small in a big market
  • Payments attach rate and the room to grow it
  • Gross margin and capital efficiency
  • Founder-independent operations

FAQ

SaaS and ISV M&A questions founders ask

What makes an ISV attractive to acquirers?
Sticky vertical software with high retention, a real payments monetization story, and operations that survive the founder leaving. Buyers pay premiums for control of a niche and for embedded payments upside they can execute.
How are vertical SaaS companies valued?
Primarily on recurring revenue quality: growth rate, net revenue retention, gross margin, and market position. Embedded payments revenue is valued on its own economics and can meaningfully increase total transaction value when it is positioned correctly.
Who buys vertical SaaS companies and ISVs?
Private equity platforms consolidating verticals, strategic software acquirers, and payments companies buying distribution. The payments-company buyer is the one most SaaS-only advisors never call.
My company is under $20 million in value. Will anyone represent it well?
Yes. This is 733Park's core market. We represent companies from $2 million to $350 million in enterprise value, and the founder runs every engagement regardless of size.
