How is NextBoss.ai different from other marketplaces?

We offer a unique AI-powered conversational interface via both web and Telegram bot. You can describe your business or search using natural language, and our AI extracts the details automatically. Plus, we use a fair pay-per-lead model instead of expensive listing fees.

For Sellers

How do I list my business for sale?

You can list via our web chat or Telegram bot (@NextBossAI_Bot). Simply describe your business in natural language (e.g., "Selling my café in Toa Payoh, 100k takeover, rent 5k"). Our AI will extract the details and create your listing!

What information should I include in my listing?

Include business type, location, takeover price, monthly rent (if applicable), size, and any special features like fitted equipment. The more details you provide, the better your listing will appear to buyers.

How will buyers contact me?

When creating your listing, you'll provide contact details (email or phone). Buyers who purchase the lead (5 credits) will see your contact information and can reach out directly.

Can I edit my listing after posting?

Yes! Go to your Seller Dashboard and click "Edit" on any of your active listings. Note that sold listings cannot be edited.

How do I mark my business as sold?

Visit your Seller Dashboard, find your listing, and click the "Mark as Sold" button. This will update the listing status and prevent new buyers from purchasing leads.

For Buyers

How do I search for businesses?

Browse the homepage for featured listings, or use our AI-powered search via web chat or Telegram bot. Just describe what you're looking for (e.g., "café in central Singapore under 150k").

What are credits and how do they work?

Credits are our virtual currency. You spend 5 credits to reveal a seller's contact information for any listing. This ensures sellers only pay when there's genuine buyer interest.

How many free credits do I get?

New users receive 25 free credits upon registration. This lets you reveal contact details for up to 5 listings!

How do I buy more credits?

You can purchase credits via Telegram Stars (in-app purchases through @NextBossAI_Bot). Packages available: 10 credits for 20 Stars, 25 credits for 50 Stars, 100 credits for 180 Stars (16% off). Stripe payments coming soon!

Can I get a refund on credits?

Credits are generally non-refundable. However, if you accidentally revealed a listing or encountered technical issues, please contact us and we'll review your case.

Do credits expire?

No, your credits never expire. Use them whenever you're ready!
