What you actually get
A listing page under /product/ with a dofollow link out to you once the badge is verified and a human has approved it. The reserved URL 404s in the meantime, and live listings are visibly mixed, with plenty still carrying nofollow, so the dofollow reads as the reward for keeping the badge up rather than something every entry gets.
How to submit to SaaS Wheel
1
Sign in with Google
/submit shows only a "Log in to Submit" card until you authenticate. Google is offered directly, and an email signup sits behind Create an account.
2
Step 1, give them the homepage
One field. Enter the product homepage only, because that exact page is what their crawler will check for the badge.
3
Step 2, take the badge and place it
They generate a light and a dark snippet and reserve your listing URL. The badge must be a dofollow link to that listing URL, on your homepage or in your footer.
4
Verify to unlock the form
Verify Badge crawls the page you named. The details form does not exist until this passes, so nothing about your listing can be written first.
5
Step 3, fill the details
Site name, a screenshot up to 10MB and an icon up to 5MB, up to four categories, a pricing radio (Free, Free Trial, Freemium, Paid), a 150-character short description, a 1,500-character about section and a terms checkbox.

Gotchas
The badge is not the last step, it is the gate. The details form does not render at all until Verify Badge passes, so you cannot write your listing first and add the badge afterwards the way most directories let you.
The badge has to point at your own listing URL, not their homepage, and it has to be dofollow. They reserve the slug up front, so you are publishing a link to a page that does not exist yet and will 404 until they approve you.
They check one specific page for the badge, the homepage URL you typed in step 1. A badge that only appears on an interior page or a footer that page does not render will fail verification with nothing to explain why.
