Sell Your App the Smart Way:
Cash Upfront + Ongoing Upside
You built something valuable. At Wherk, we help indie developers turn their apps into 1.5×–2× annual profit over time — with a mix of upfront cash and long-term upside.
No brokers. No lowball games. Just clear math and aligned incentives.
Three Ways to Get Paid — You Choose the Path
Every app (and every founder) is different. That's why we offer three founder-friendly ways to structure a deal.
Upfront + Earn-Out
Most Popular
The "balanced" option.
- •Meaningful cash paid at closing
- •Monthly payouts over 2–3 years
- •Great for apps with stable or steadily growing revenue
Best if you want a solid check now and predictable income later.
Upfront + Profit Share
Maximum Alignment
Smaller upfront, bigger slice long-term.
- •Modest cash at closing
- •A larger percentage of ongoing profits
- •Great for apps with upside that haven't had real marketing yet
Best if you believe there's more juice left in the app — and you want to share in the growth.
Growth Accelerator Model
Maximum Upside
Maximum upside, minimum friction.
- •Lower upfront advance
- •High share of growth as we scale
- •We pour in AI, marketing, and optimization
Best if you're ready to hand off the work but still want to participate in a breakout outcome.
See What Your App Could Earn Under Each Model
To make this real, we run your numbers through three scenarios:
- •No Growth – your app stays flat
- •Low Growth – sensible improvements from ASO, pricing, and retention
- •Hyper Growth – when everything clicks
We start by showing you the Low Growth case, because it's realistic and still exciting.
Adjust the scenario to see how your total payout changes.
