Kairos - the right moment to sell your store.

Kairos checks a store's real numbers straight from Shopify and Google Ads - not just what the seller says. That's the difference between a listing buyers trust and one they scroll past.

How it works

How Kairos works

Three steps if you're selling. Three steps if you're buying. No mystery in between.

Selling a store

  1. 1

    Connect your data

    Link Shopify (and Google Ads, if you run it). Read-only - nothing on your store changes.

  2. 2

    Get verified

    We check your real orders, ad spend, and refund rate against what you reported. You get a written verification memo, not just a badge.

  3. 3

    List and meet buyers

    Your listing goes live with your tier badge. Buyers see the same real numbers you do - no back-and-forth over whose numbers are right.

Buying a store

  1. 1

    Browse verified listings

    See real revenue bands, real multiples, and a tier badge on every store - amber means unverified, green means proven.

  2. 2

    Unlock the full picture

    Sign one NDA, then unlock full financials with a refundable deposit - or skip the deposit once your funds are verified.

  3. 3

    Offer, close, done

    Make a structured offer, move through escrow, then follow a guided handover checklist so nothing breaks after the sale.

Earned green

Green only appears when something was proven

Every listing carries one of three tiers. We never dress up a self-reported number to look checked.

Unverified

Self-reported numbers

The seller told us the numbers - we haven't checked them yet. Allowed on the marketplace, but flagged in amber so buyers know to dig in themselves.

Data Verified

Checked against real orders

We connect Shopify (and Google Ads, if used) and check revenue at the ORDER level - not website visits, which is how the bot-traffic scams beat other marketplaces. A human reviews the checks and signs a memo.

Kairos Verified

Our own tracked data, too

For stores already in the ZenoX ecosystem, we add our own server-side tracked conversions and account history on top of Tier 1 - the deepest check we can do.

Paid only when the deal closes

Listing is free. Verification is free. Under EUR 100k, we take 5% (minimum EUR 500) at close. EUR 100k and up, full-service runs 12% on the first EUR 500k and 9% above (minimum EUR 10k). If a deal never closes, you never owe us anything.

Questions people actually ask

How much does Kairos cost?

Listing is free and verification is free, always. If your asking price is under EUR 100k, the success fee is 5% (minimum EUR 500), paid at close. EUR 100k and up, full-service is 12% on the first EUR 500k and 9% on anything above that (minimum EUR 10k). You only pay when a deal actually closes - never before.

Is Kairos a broker?

Depends on the lane. Under EUR 100k (self-serve), we host the listing and verify your data, but we never negotiate, never advise on your specific price, and never touch the money - that is a finder role, not a broker role. EUR 100k and up (full-service, where it's available), we run the whole process: valuation, buyer matching, negotiation support, and the deal all the way to close - that is a broker role.

How does verification actually work?

We connect to your store through read-only APIs (Shopify, and Google Ads if you run it) and check your reported revenue against your real ORDER data - not website visits, which is the loophole bot-traffic scams use on other marketplaces. We also check your ad spend vs revenue, refund rate, and chargeback rate against normal benchmarks. A human reviews any flags before we publish the memo.

Do you hold the money during a sale?

No - never. Every deal settles through a licensed third-party escrow provider. Funds never touch a Kairos account, by design, with zero exceptions.

Who can list a store on Kairos?

Any Shopify-based ecom store, at launch. Self-serve listing is open almost everywhere. Full-service brokerage is geo-gated for a small number of US states and countries at launch, until we've cleared the local licensing rules there - self-serve stays open to those sellers in the meantime.

How long does a sale take?

Self-serve moves at the pace the buyer and seller agree on between themselves. Full-service targets under 120 days from a live listing to a closed deal, which matches the industry's best vetted-marketplace pace.

What if my numbers don't match what I reported?

Data refreshes weekly while you're listed. If the live numbers drift more than 20% from what buyers were shown, the listing is automatically flagged for a re-review. One confirmed strike gets a listing delisted and the seller banned - and we publish that rejection count, not just the wins.

I'm not ready to sell or buy yet - why join the waitlist?

Kairos is in Phase 0 right now, building toward launch. Waitlist members get first access to listings and buyer tools the moment we open, plus updates as the trust engine gets built out.
