Quick definitions for the terms you’ll meet across Mumtalakat. Each links to its detailed page.
  • NDA (non-disclosure agreement) — a binding agreement to keep the seller’s confidential data private; required by some listings before full details are shown. See NDA & disclosure.
  • Gradual disclosure — revealing a listing in layers (public → registered → post-NDA). See Privacy & anonymity.
  • Anonymous listing — hides the owner’s identity only (name, description, logo), not the price or figures.
  • Boost — pushes a listing to the top of the feed with a “Featured” badge for 7 days; Featured plan and above.
  • Listing strength — a meter of how complete a listing is; higher completeness ranks better and attracts more serious buyers.
  • Interest request — a buyer’s signal of interest in a project, which may include qualifying answers.
  • Qualifying questions — short questions a buyer answers to screen for a serious, well-matched fit before a conversation opens.
  • Contract phases — the five ordered steps of a deal contract, from signing to handover. See Contract & commission.
  • Commission — the brokerage fee set out in the brokerage agreement, plus VAT, due on close. See Commission protection.
  • Circumvention — taking an introduced deal off-platform to avoid the commission; prohibited.
  • Verification (KYC) — confirming a user’s identity (and a seller’s commercial registration) before full platform access.
  • Serious-buyer badge — a badge a buyer earns after verification, signaling credibility to sellers.
  • Brokerage agreement — the agreement a seller signs authorizing Mumtalakat to broker their listing.
  • “After signing the NDA” — a set price that is hidden until the buyer signs.
  • “By agreement” — no price was set; it will be built through negotiation.
  • Project types — the five listing types chosen at signup: idea, growth stake, full exit, merger, and digital asset. See Project types.
  • Highlight tags — keywords a seller adds to surface a listing’s strengths; count scales by plan (Essentials 3, Featured 5, Growth 6, Business 7). See Customize & privacy.
  • Documents room — the project’s secure space for organising documents into five sections and sharing them with buyers after the NDA. See Documents room.
  • Contract templates — a contract the seller designs once (PDF + fields); every new deal auto-fills onto the active template for verified signing. See Contract templates.
  • Buyer access — completely free: unlimited interests, offers, and direct messages, with instant alerts for everyone. There are no paid buyer plans. See Plans.
