$69,000,000

6,900,000 Units

Blueport Acquisition Ltd is a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. We have not selected any business combination target, and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any business combination target. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region. We intend to conduct a global search for target businesses without being limited by geographic region.

This is an initial public offering of our securities. Each unit that we are offering has a price of $10.00 and consists of one Class A ordinary share and one right to receive one-sixth (1/6th) of one Class A ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination, as described in more detail in this prospectus. We refer to the rights included in the units as “rights.”

We have granted A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“A.G.P.”), the representative of the underwriters, a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,035,000 units (over and above the 6,900,000 units referred to above) solely to cover over-allotments, if any.

We will provide the holders of our outstanding ordinary shares that were sold in this offering with the opportunity to redeem their shares upon the consummation of our initial business combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account described below, including interest (net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then outstanding ordinary shares that were sold in this offering, which we refer to as our “public shares” throughout this prospectus, subject to the limitations described herein. See “Summary — The Offering — Redemption rights for public shareholders upon completion of our initial business combination” and “Summary — The Offering — Redemption of public shares and distribution and liquidation if no initial business combination” for more information.

Notwithstanding the foregoing redemption rights, if we seek shareholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender offer rules, our post-offering amended and restated memorandum and articles of association will provide that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares sold in this offering without our prior consent. However, we would not be restricting our shareholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including all shares held by those shareholders that hold more than 15% of the shares sold in this offering) for or against our initial business combination. See “Comparison to Offerings of Blank Check Companies Subject to Rule 419- Limitation on redemption rights of shareholders holding more than 15% of the shares sold in this offering if we hold a shareholder vote” for further discussion on certain limitations on redemption rights. We have determined not to consummate any business combination unless the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation. However, if we seek to consummate an initial business combination with a target business that imposes any type of working capital closing condition or requires us to have a minimum amount of funds available from our trust account upon consummation of such initial business combination, the net tangible asset threshold may limit our ability to consummate such initial business combination (as we may be required to have a lesser number of shares redeemed) and may force us to seek third party financing which may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. As a result, we may not be able to consummate such initial business combination and we may not be able to locate another suitable target within the applicable time period, if at all.

We have 15 months from the closing of this offering to consummate our initial business combination. If we anticipate that we may be unable to consummate our initial business combination within such period, we may seek shareholder approval to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to extend the date by which we must consummate our initial business combination. Subject to shareholder approval, there are no limitations as to the duration of an extension or the number of times the completion window may be extended by shareholders via an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. If we seek shareholder approval for an extension, our public shareholders will be offered an opportunity to redeem their shares at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to applicable laws. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the 15-month period or such period that may be extended, we will distribute the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (net of taxes payable), pro rata to our public shareholders, by way of the redemption of their shares and thereafter cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up of our affairs, as further described herein.

Our sponsor, Blueport Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation, has committed to purchasing from us an aggregate of 299,000 units (or up to 315,000 units if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) (the “private units”) at $10.00 per private unit for a total purchase price of $2,990,000 (or $3,150,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full). These purchases will take place on a private placement basis simultaneously with the consummation of this offering. These private units are identical to the units sold in this offering, subject to limited exceptions as further described herein. A portion of the proceeds we receive from these purchases will be placed in the trust account described below.

Our sponsor has purchased an aggregate of 1,983,750 Class B ordinary shares for an aggregate of $25,000, up to 258,750 of which will be surrendered to us for no consideration after the closing of this offering depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised, which will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares concurrently with or immediately following the consummation of our initial business combination, or earlier at the option of the holders thereof on a one-for-one basis, subject to the adjustments described herein. Because our sponsor acquired the Class B ordinary shares at a nominal price, our public shareholders will incur an immediate and substantial dilution upon the closing of this offering. Further, the Class A ordinary shares issuable in connection with the conversion of the Class B ordinary shares may result in material dilution to our public shareholders due to the anti-dilution rights of our Class B ordinary shares that may result in an issuance of Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion. Prior to the closing of our initial business combination, only holders of our Class B ordinary shares (i) will have the right to vote to appoint and remove directors prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination and (ii) will be entitled to vote on continuing our company in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands (including any special resolution required to amend our constitutional documents or to adopt new constitutional documents, in each case, as a result of our approving a transfer by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands). On any other matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders prior to or in connection with the completion of our initial business combination, holders of the Class B ordinary shares and holders of the Class A ordinary shares will vote together as a single class, except as required by law. Additionally, we will reimburse an affiliate of our sponsor in an amount equal to $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support made available to us, as described elsewhere in this prospectus. Upon consummation of this offering, we will repay up to $300,000 in loans made to us by our sponsor to cover offering-related and organizational expenses. Up to $1,500,000 of working capital loans (“Working Capital Loans”) made by the sponsor, prior to or in connection with its initial business combination may be convertible into units of the post-business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of our sponsor. Following consummation of a business combination, members of our management team will be entitled to reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses related to identifying, investigating and completing an initial business combination. As a result, there may be actual or potential material conflicts of interest between members of our management team, our sponsor and its affiliates on one hand, and purchasers in this offering on the other.See“Summary — Sponsor Information”, “Summary — Conflicts of Interest”, “Summary — The Offering — Initial Shares and Transfer Restrictions”, and “Summary — The Offering — Limited payments to insiders” and “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Management Team — The nominal purchase price paid by our sponsor for the initial shares may result in significant dilution to the implied value of your public shares upon the consummation of our initial business combination, and our sponsor is likely to make a substantial profit on its investment in us in the event we consummate an initial business combination, even if the business combination causes the trading price of our ordinary shares to materially decline.”for further discussion on our sponsor’s and our affiliates’ securities and compensation.

As more fully discussed in“Management — Conflicts of Interest,” each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary, contractual or other obligations or duties to one or more other entities pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entities.** In February 2025, an aggregate of 1,983,750 initial shares were issued to our sponsor, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.013 per share. The low price that our sponsor, executive officers and directors (directly or indirectly) paid for the initial shares creates an incentive whereby our officers and directors could potentially make a substantial profit even if we select an acquisition target that subsequently declines in value and is unprofitable for public shareholders. Our management team may be more willing to pursue a business combination with a riskier or less-established target business, as our sponsor and members of our management team would likely not receive any financial benefit unless we consummated such business combination. These interests of our sponsor, executive officers and directors may affect the consideration paid, terms, conditions and timing relating to a business combination in a way that conflicts with the interests of our public shareholders. Additionally, our sponsor and executive officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their initial shares, private shares and public shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their initial shares, private shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (a) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we have not consummated an initial business combination within the completion window or (b) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity; (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their initial shares and private shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the completion window, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares they hold if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame; and (iv) vote any initial shares and private shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after this offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions) in favor of our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the completion window, or by such earlier liquidation date as our board of directors may approve, the initial shares and private units may expire worthless, except to the extent they receive liquidating distributions from assets outside the trust account, which could create an incentive for our sponsor, executive officers and directors to complete a transaction even if we select an acquisition target that subsequently declines in value and is unprofitable for public shareholders. Further, each of our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular business combination if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors was included by a target business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial business combination. Additionally, we will reimburse an affiliate of our sponsor in an amount equal to $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support made available to us, as described elsewhere in this prospectus. Upon consummation of this offering, we will repay up to $300,000 in loans made to us by our sponsor to cover offering-related and organizational expenses. Up to $1,500,000 of working capital loans (“Working Capital Loans”) made by the sponsor, prior to or in connection with its initial business combination may be convertible into units of the post-business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of our sponsor.As a result, there may be actual or potential material conflicts of interest between our sponsor and its affiliates on the one hand, and purchasers in this offering on the other hand. See the sections titled“Summary — Sponsor Information”, “Summary — Conflicts of Interest”, “Risk Factors — Our officers and directors will allocate their time to other businesses, thereby potentially limiting the amount of time they devote to our affairs. This conflict of interest could have a negative impact on our ability to consummate our initial business combination”, and “Management — Conflicts of Interest” for more information.**

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our units, ordinary shares or rights. We have applied to have our units listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “BPAC” on or promptly after the date of this prospectus. The Class A ordinary shares and rights comprising the units will begin separate trading on the 52 nd day after the date of this prospectus unless A.G.P. informs us of its decision to allow earlier separate trading, subject to our satisfaction of certain conditions. Once the securities comprising the units begin separate trading, the Class A ordinary shares and rights will be traded on Nasdaq under the symbols “BPAC” and “BPACR” respectively.

We are an “emerging growth company” under applicable federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 30 for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our securities. Investors will not be entitled to protections normally afforded to investors in Rule 419 blank check offerings.

Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

No offer or invitation to subscribe for units may be made to the public in the Cayman Islands.

Of the proceeds we receive from this offering and the sale of the private units described in this prospectus, $69,000,000, or $79,350,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full ($10.00 per unit or 100% of the gross proceeds of the offering in either case), will be deposited into a United States-based trust account at a United States chartered commercial bank with consolidated assets of $100 billion or more selected by Wilmington Trust, National Association, (“Wilmington Trust”) acting as trustee. Such amount includes $0.20 per unit, or $1,380,000 (or $1,587,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) in the aggregate, payable to the underwriters as deferred underwriting discounts and commissions only upon the completion of our initial business combination. Except as described in this prospectus, these funds will not be released to us until the earlier of the completion of our initial business combination and our liquidation upon our failure to consummate a business combination within the required time period. The majority of our assets may be located outside the United States after we consummate our initial business combination.

In February 2025, an aggregate of 1,983,750 initial shares were issued to our sponsor, for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.013 per share. Because our sponsor acquired the initial shares at a nominal price, our public shareholders will incur an immediate and substantial dilution upon the closing of this offering, assuming no value is ascribed to the rights included in the units. Further, the Class A ordinary shares issuable in connection with the conversion of the initial shares may result in material dilution to our public shareholders due to the anti-dilution rights of our initial shares that may result in an issuance of Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion.See the section titled “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Management Team — The nominal purchase price paid by our sponsor for the initial shares may result in significant dilution to the implied value of your public shares upon the consummation of our initial business combination, and our sponsor is likely to make a substantial profit on its investment in us in the event we consummate an initial business combination, even if the business combination causes the trading price of our ordinary shares to materially decline.”

To illustrate, the table below shows possible sources of dilution and the extent of such dilution that non-redeeming public shareholders could experience in connection with the closing of this offering. The table below assumes: Scenario A) 25% of the maximum number of our public shares are redeemed, Scenario B) 50% of the maximum number of our public shares are redeemed, Scenario C) 75% of the maximum number of our public shares are redeemed, and Scenario D) maximum of our public shares redemption that would permit us to maintain net tangible assets of $5,000,001 are redeemed. See section entitled “Dilution” for more information.

Our sponsor and members of our management team will directly or indirectly own our securities following this offering, and accordingly, they may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial business combination. Additionally, each of our officers and directors presently has, and any of them in the future may have additional, fiduciary, contractual or other obligations or duties to one or more other entities pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present a business combination opportunity to such entities.See the sections titled “Proposed Business — Sourcing of Potential Business Combination Targets” and “Management — Conflicts of Interest” for more information.

The underwriters are offering the units for sale on a firm-commitment basis. Delivery of the units will be made on or about [●], 2025.
