Terms
These terms cover how you use Kairos Exchange. By using the marketplace you agree to them. Plain language, no traps.
Effective 2026-07-15
What Kairos is
Kairos is a marketplace and, on larger deals, a brokerage for buying and selling ecommerce stores. We verify a store's numbers from its real data. We do not own the stores listed and we are not a party to the sale between a buyer and a seller.
Verification is a check, not a guarantee
Our verification checks a store's reported numbers against its real order data and flags what does not add up. It is a strong, honest check. It is not a warranty of a store's future performance, and it does not replace a buyer's own due diligence.
Fees
Listing is free and verification is free. You pay a success fee only when a deal actually closes, deducted from the escrow transaction at close. The current fee schedule is on the pricing page. If a deal never closes, you owe nothing.
Escrow and settlement
Every deal settles through a licensed third-party escrow provider. Funds never touch a Kairos account. Kairos does not hold, move, or lend money.
Honest listings
Sellers must connect real data and not misrepresent it. If a listing's live numbers drift too far from what buyers were shown, it is flagged for re-review. A confirmed misrepresentation gets the listing delisted and the seller banned. We publish the rejection count, not just the wins.
Eligibility and geography
Self-serve listing is open in most places. Full-service brokerage is limited to certain states and countries at launch until local licensing is cleared. We may decline or remove any listing that breaks these terms.
Changes
We may update these terms as the product grows. We will post the effective date at the top. Questions: privacy@kairosexchange.com.
