Why HowToBuySaaS submissions get rejected or stall
- Incomplete or inaccurate product information: HTBS may request corrections, clarification, or additional information before publication.
- Listing does not fit a SaaS product category: the public marketplace is for software products only.
- Violation of marketplace guidelines: misrepresentation, false information, or unprofessional conduct can lead to rejection or removal.
- Payment not completed: listings require a one-time Stripe payment before review.
Tips for a listing that gets approved
- Write a clear product description that explains what the SaaS does, who it's for, and key capabilities — HTBS emphasizes buyer usefulness over backlinks.
- Provide screenshots, demos, or documentation to strengthen your listing.
- Choose the most relevant primary category; you can add more with the Enterprise plan.
- Don't expect SEO benefits: HTBS explicitly states listings are not sold as backlinks or ranking products.
