Rank at the top. Slash the price.
A software marketplace. Vendors sell genuine, limited annual subscriptions to their own software at a real discount, through their own Stripe account. Optional, clearly disclosed paid placement orders how those listings are discovered. See exact pricing and plan terms.
What TopSlash is
TopSlash is a marketplace first: its purpose is to enable software vendors to sell genuine subscriptions at a discount through their own connected Stripe accounts. Software companies publish verified product listings and limited subscription offers, and each purchase is a direct charge on that vendor's own connected Stripe account — the vendor is the merchant of record. Alongside that, vendors may optionally purchase clearly disclosed paid placement, which orders the marketplace's public leaderboard. Placement payments do not purchase clicks, followers, reviews, engagement, or guaranteed results. Software purchases are processed as direct charges through each vendor's connected Stripe account.
For software founders
- Submit your website. Automated verification checks it and publishes the listing — usually in under two minutes.
- Optionally bid for placement. The leaderboard ranks listings by their cumulative confirmed placement payments. Every position is labeled Paid Rank. The first public claim of #1 costs $2; the next qualifying total is $5; after that the minimum increase is $5. Returning founders pay only the difference to their new total.
- Optionally attach a deal. Connect your own Stripe account and offer a limited annual subscription deal: the first 10 buyers get 60% off, the next 15 get 40% off, the final 25 get 25% off — 50 units maximum. You set the normal price and the renewal price; we compute the rest.
- Fees. The first 50 approved listings pay no listing fee. After that, a one-time $19 listing and automated-verification fee applies. The listing fee never purchases rank; paid placement is a separate, optional purchase. Founding-cohort deals carry a 0% marketplace commission.
For buyers
- Browse without an account. Every deal shows the normal annual price, the current deal price, the discount, remaining availability, the renewal price, the vendor's refund policy, and how to cancel.
- You buy directly from the vendor through Stripe Checkout. The vendor fulfills, supports, renews, and refunds under its own policy. Pricing provided by vendor. Purchase and subscription managed by vendor.
- Paid rank is advertising. It is not a quality recommendation. Verified purchases and verified savings are counted only from completed Stripe payments — never estimated.
How payments work
Pricing and subscription plans
Envol, Inc. does not sell recurring software subscriptions through its own Stripe account. It sells two business services to software companies: listing and automated verification (free for the first 50 approved listings, then $19 USD once) and optional one-time Paid Rank advertising placement. Neither service creates a monthly or annual charge from Envol, Inc.
Independent software vendors sell annual subscriptions directly through their own connected Stripe accounts. Each vendor sets the plan name, features, normal annual price and annual renewal price. A published deal has 50 units: the first 10 at 60% off, the next 15 at 40% off and the final 25 at 25% off for the first year. Every deal page shows the vendor, exact USD price, renewal price, billing period, remaining inventory, refund policy, support link and online cancellation link before checkout. The vendor is the seller and merchant of record.

The marketplace is built and running in our pre-launch environment at staging.topslash.lol — the public board, listings, deal pages and every policy, in test mode. No real payments are processed there.
Transparency
Every placement payment and rank movement is recorded in a public, permanent history. Public counters show unique visitors, confirmed placement revenue, approved listings, deduplicated clicks, verified purchases, and verified savings — no fake activity, no resetting countdowns, no invented scarcity. The launch seed listing (Laeli, operated by the marketplace founder) is disclosed as such.
