Klaviyo due diligence
Published · Reviewed by The Diligence Standard Team · Updated
An email and SMS program can be a transferable demand asset only when consent, list quality, deliverability, integrations, flows and creative ownership withstand buyer control.
Evidence to request
- Owners, administrators, users and integration credentials
- List growth, source, consent status and suppression records
- Revenue attribution reconciled to orders and incremental behavior
- Deliverability, bounce, complaint and sending-domain history
- Flow inventory, templates, segments and creative ownership
- SMS registrations, quiet-hours and jurisdictional controls
Transfer risks
- Attributed revenue overstates incremental revenue
- Purchased or weak-consent lists create legal and deliverability exposure
- The agency controls flows, domains or integrations
- Inactive profiles inflate list value
Control-change sequence
- Move owner and administrator control with domain authentication intact.
- Preserve suppression, consent and subscription-source records.
- Test storefront, catalog, event and sending integrations under buyer control.
Account ownership, user roles, sending infrastructure and consent obligations must be assessed together; platform access alone does not establish lawful use of the audience.
