These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access and use of MvpHub, including any related websites, services, or applications that list Minimum Viable Products (“MVPs”), allow developers to showcase their MVPs, and allow buyers to purchase MVPs and/or domains. By accessing or using MvpHub, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any provision of these Terms, you must not use MvpHub.
We reserve the right to modify, update, or replace any part of these Terms at our sole discretion. It is your responsibility to periodically check these Terms for changes. Your continued use of or access to MvpHub following the posting of any changes constitutes acceptance of those changes.

4. LISTING OF MVPS
-
Submission by Developers
- Developers may list their MVPs on MvpHub by providing accurate and complete information about the MVP, including relevant technical details, pricing, and licensing terms.
- By listing an MVP, you represent and warrant that you have the full right, power, and authority to list such MVP, and that the MVP and its content do not infringe or violate any third-party rights.
-
Hosting Options
- MvpHub-Hosted: Developers can choose to host their MVP’s code and/or facilitate payments directly on MvpHub.
- External Hosting/Link: Developers can provide links to external sites for code hosting or purchase. In such cases, the actual transaction, including payment and code transfer, takes place outside MvpHub. We do not assume any liability for external transactions, and you (Developer and Buyer) assume all risks associated with such external transactions.
-
Accuracy of Listings
- Developers are solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of their MVP listings.
- MvpHub does not guarantee or endorse the accuracy of the MVP’s information. Buyers should exercise due diligence before making any purchase decision.
-
Resale Prohibited
- Buyers purchasing an MVP on MvpHub may not resell or redistribute the MVP as a standalone product. This policy preserves the integrity and original purpose of each MVP listed here.
5. DOMAIN LISTINGS AND TRANSACTIONS
-
Submission by Domain Owners
- Domain Owners may submit their domains to MvpHub, providing all necessary details, including domain name, registration status, and asking price.
- By listing a domain, you represent and warrant that you have full ownership rights or authority to sell the domain, and that the domain does not infringe or violate any third-party rights or trademarks.
-
Linking Domains to MVPs
- MvpHub may match domains to relevant MVP listings for possible bundled transactions.
- Any combined purchase (domain + MVP) is subject to these Terms as well as the specific terms for each listing.
-
Escrow Service for Domains
- When a Buyer purchases a domain through MvpHub, we act as an escrow agent. This means we collect payment from the Buyer and hold it until the domain is successfully transferred to the Buyer.
- The Domain Owner agrees to initiate the transfer of the domain promptly after receiving notice of the Buyer’s payment.
- Once the Buyer confirms receipt of the domain and we verify the transfer, we will release the payment to the Domain Owner, less any applicable fees or commissions.
6. TRANSACTIONS AND PAYMENT
-
MvpHub-Facilitated Transactions
- If a Developer opts to use MvpHub’s payment system to sell an MVP, all payments will be processed through our payment processor. The Developer authorizes MvpHub to collect the payment, deduct any fees or commissions, and remit the remaining amount to the Developer in accordance with our payment schedule.
- Buyers purchasing through MvpHub will pay the listed price plus any applicable taxes or fees.
-
External Transactions
- If a Developer chooses to link to an external site for hosting or purchase, the transaction is completed off MvpHub. MvpHub has no responsibility or liability for such transactions, including but not limited to payment disputes, refunds, code delivery, or any claims arising from the Developer-Buyer relationship.
- Any issues or disputes regarding external transactions must be resolved between the Developer and the Buyer outside MvpHub.
-
Fees and Commissions
- We may charge fees or commissions for listings, escrow services, or other services provided on MvpHub. The fees or commissions will be disclosed to you prior to engaging in any transaction.
- We reserve the right to change our fees and commission structure at any time, upon notice to you via email or through MvpHub.
-
Refunds
- No Refunds for Digital Products: Due to the nature of digital products, MVPs listed on MvpHub cannot be refunded or exchanged once access is granted.
- Where MvpHub acts as an escrow (for domains or otherwise), refunds may be processed if the sale does not complete, at our sole discretion.
