SBA Pre-Qualified Custom Web Development & Maintenance Firm | 24-Year Business | 165 Active Clients | <3% Churn | Proprietary API Integration

Deal Pipe® presents a 24-Year Custom Web Development and Maintenance Operations Company, built to support Travel Advisors who rely on real-time online cruise, hotel, and vacation data. This B2B provider has operated for more than two decades and continues to serve a wide base of travel agencies and independent advisors across the United States and Canada. Their proprietary connection to a private travel API powers thousands of daily searches, and more than 90% of all API traffic flows through websites built on their system. With 165 active clients and minimal churn, this business has become a trusted, stable part of how many agencies manage their online presence.

SBA Financing Opportunity

This business has been pre-qualified for SBA financing, offering a distinct advantage to prospective acquirers. This means the company meets stringent lender criteria for consistent cash flow, operational stability, and financial documentation, reducing uncertainty and expediting the lending process. With only 10% down required for Qualified Buyers, ownership can be secured through a 10-year, fully amortized loan at competitive fixed interest rates, enabling affordable monthly payments and maximum capital leverage.

Web Services & Structure

The company builds, hosts, and maintains both custom and template-based websites designed for speed, security, and ease of use. Every site connects to their API-driven “cobrand” system, which lets clients display prices, availability, and travel details directly on their branded websites. Their setup process begins with a one-time design fee, followed by month-to-month hosting and service fees that keep revenue consistent year-round.

Their hosting plans include DNS management, SSL protection, daily backups, and full server oversight. The platform also includes a proprietary CMS that lets clients update promotions, add staff details, upload travel groups, edit pages, and manage marketing content without waiting on a developer. No outside contractors manage this system, all code and templates are owned completely in-house.

Digital Marketing & Traffic

The typical customer is a travel advisor or agency connected to a high-volume travel network. These clients depend on fast, accurate access to travel data, making the platform a core part of their daily operations. The business had 171 clients a year ago and retains long-term relationships with agencies that have stayed with them for well over a decade. No single client contributes more than 15% of revenue.

Across all sites, the platform handles more than 1.84 million unique visitors and over 26 million total requests in a 30-day period. Pageviews exceed 931,000 per month, demonstrating strong usage driven by client activity. Traffic is driven entirely by clients’ daily activity and ongoing travel demand, not from paid marketing. New clients mostly find the platform through word-of-mouth referrals and a listing inside a private portal accessible to network-affiliated agencies. The company previously attended annual industry events that generated steady leads and could easily resume those efforts.

Operations

Two principal owners run all daily operations, handling development, client support, billing, and accounting. They work a combined 30-40 hours per week and rarely face backlogs, as most support requests are handled the same day. Website projects take about 3–4 weeks to complete, depending on client participation.

About 40% of clients remain on older ASP builds, while the rest have upgraded to PHP/MySQL platforms. This creates a clear modernization path for a new owner, as each upgrade improves performance and opens doors to higher service fees. All servers are leased through a trusted hosting provider with direct phone support, and Cloudflare protects every domain with strong security measures. The business has no employees and no need for working capital; monthly hosting fees fully cover expenses and owner salaries.

Growth Options

A buyer with technical knowledge can grow this business through several simple paths. Upgrading legacy clients to the modern platform, expanding into other travel consortiums, and offering SEO packages tailored to specific travel niches can all drive long-term growth. Additional revenue is available through mobile app development, AI tools for travel advisors, and the modernization of older websites. DNS support, currently offered at no charge, could also be converted into a paid service.

This brand offers more than recurring fees. It offers stability, low overhead, long-term clients, and a strong foundation that has held firm for 24 years. A new owner stepping in will inherit a proven digital platform with a loyal user base, exclusive API access, fully owned code, and clear paths to scale without disrupting daily operations.

Business Broker Takeaways

1. Technological Edge. The company’s exclusive API integration and proprietary technology provide a significant competitive advantage, allowing clients to offer real-time travel services directly through their websites.

2. Growth Potential. Opportunities abound for expansion into additional travel networks and the modernization of existing platforms, which could significantly enhance the company’s market presence and profitability.

3. Operational Efficiency. With low overhead and no employees, a buyer with technical expertise can capitalize on the company’s streamlined operations and focus on scaling the business while potentially further reducing their own workload.

Summary

This 24-year digital platform offers buyers a rare combination of stability, recurring revenue, and deeply embedded client relationships in the travel sector. With fully owned code, exclusive API access, minimal churn, and a highly automated operational model, the business provides predictable cash flow with virtually no staffing requirements. Clear growth levers—modernizing legacy sites, expanding into additional travel networks, and introducing new service lines—offer meaningful upside without disrupting the steady, profitable base. For buyers seeking a defensible technology asset with long-term clients, low overhead, SBA pre-qualification, and immediate scalability, this business represents a compelling acquisition opportunity.
