Getting Started with Investors Club: How to Set up an Account as Buyer

Getting Started with Investors Club

Investors Club works hard to help buyers and sellers profit. If you’re looking to get started with website investing or have a portfolio you’d like to expand, Investors Club will save you time, money, and hassle on your next venture.

We offer two types of memberships: Free and Premium. Unlike some other platforms, we don’t force you into a Premium membership to complete an acquisition. A Free membership allows you to browse listings, contact sellers, submit offers, and complete purchases. It’s a great way to get started with Investors Club.

Premium membership comes with several perks like:

  • Immediate access to new listings (5 days before everyone else)
  • Revenue and traffic insights: graphs, downloads, reports
  • Premium-only business listings
  • Ad-free browsing experience
  • Weekly deal flow notifications

By default, Free members won’t see the business name or URL of listings, but you can ask the seller for these details and any others that you need to make an informed decision. It’s up to the seller to decide what information they want to share or not share.

Exploring the Investors Club Marketplace

Buyers have the option of using several different filters to tailor listings to them. 

Listing filters

If something catches your eye, you can click on each listing to discover more. Premium members have access to more details than Free members. For example, if you’re a Free member, you may see some blurred sections on the listing, like the image below.

A Free Investors Club membership gives you the ability to browse and buy online businesses, but a Premium membership provides added benefits that can more than offset the cost.
