Bounty Banker™ is an invitation-only platform for mergers and acquisitions. Members are CEOs, entrepreneurs, and industry veterans who get paid when an introduction they make leads to a completed M&A transaction.
It is an M&A introduction network — not a bank, not a credit union, and not software for employees to refer retail accounts or deposits. Partner firms are investment banks and M&A advisors running live deal processes.
How it works
Once invited, members gain access to proprietary, confidential deal flow. They introduce qualified buyers and sellers into those processes. Payment is triggered on close: members earn an average of $25,000 per introduction that leads to a completed M&A transaction.
Investment bankers use the platform to widen the buyer pool on sell-side mandates without relying only on their own coverage lists. View the Bounty Breakdown for how payouts are split.
