FAQ
A finder’s fee agreement is a document between two parties which states that the person who will help facilitate business transactions will be rewarded with a finder’s fee, which is a form of commission or referral fee. This fee is only rewarded if the deal goes through.
The conditions of finder’s fees might differ substantially. Some use a benchmark of 5 percent to 35 percent of the deal’s total value as a guideline. There is typically no legal requirement to pay a commission (unless if there’s a contract in place), so the finder’s fee can be classified as a gift from one party to another in many situations.
There is no legality on which party should pay the finder’s fee. Any party (that is not the finder) could be equally responsible for paying it. However, there are common industry practices for paying the finder’s fee (which vary from industry to industry). In almost every case, the party who enters into a contract with the finder ends up paying the finder’s fee.
