Earnings & transparency

You'll see every number we see.

Most partner programmes hide the real economics behind a rate card and a portal. Ours doesn't, for a simple reason: if you're going to put your name behind a quote to someone who trusts you, you need to know exactly what's inside it and exactly what you're making.

Commission structure

The more you carry, the more you keep.

You choose the model per deal, not once for the whole relationship. Refer one client, co-sell the next, white-label a third.

Table 1 — Rates apply to net project value excluding pass-through costs. Confirmed in your partner agreement.

Why co-sell pays nearly double

Because you're doing the expensive part. A warm introduction saves us marketing spend; a partner who runs the client relationship through a four-month enterprise cycle saves us an entire sales function. The rate reflects the work, not a tier badge you unlock by hitting a quota.

Why retainers matter more than projects

A build pays once. A retained engineer pays every month, and most clients who go live keep one. Partners who've been with us two years earn more from retainers they closed last year than from new deals this quarter. That's the compounding worth being patient for.

Run the numbers

Your maths, not our marketing.

Move the sliders to something you actually believe. We'd rather you saw a modest honest number than an inflated one.

Illustrative, not a forecast. Assumes retainers persist, which most do but not all. Your agreement governs the actual rates.

A real deal, line by line

This is the statement you'd receive.

Modelled on CS-01, our support deployment, at co-sell rates. Every partner statement looks like this — the full picture, not just your slice.

MilestoneClient invoicedYour rateYou receive
Discovery Sprint$0 — free$0
Build — increment 1 & 2$22,00018%$3,960
Build — increment 3 & launch$26,00018%$4,680
Project total$48,000$8,640
Support retainer, month 1$5,50012%$660
Retainer, ongoing$5,500 / month12%$7,920 / yr

Table 2 — One client. $8,640 up front, then $7,920 every year it runs.

Note the first line. You earn nothing on the Sprint, and neither do we — it's five days of senior engineering given away. That's the investment we make in your client before anyone has committed to anything, and it's the reason your introductions convert at a rate cold outreach never will.

Transparency

What you can see at any time.

Not a portal with a summary screen. The actual documents.

  • The client's proposal, in full

    Scope, effort breakdown, stated assumptions, and the split between reused registry components and new build. The same document they receive. There is no partner edition with the details removed.

  • Where the deal actually is

    Which stage, what's blocking it, and who we're waiting on — usually their legal team. You'll never have to ask your own client for a status update on our work.

  • Delivery health, while it's being built

    You're invited to every fortnightly demo. If something is going wrong you'll know at the same moment we do, not when your client phones you about it.

  • Your commission statement

    Per milestone, showing the invoice amount, the rate applied, the calculation, and the payment date. If a number looks wrong, you can check it yourself rather than raising a query and waiting.

  • Our margin, if you ask

    Genuinely. Partners considering white-label need to price their own offer, and they can't do that blind. Ask your partner contact and you'll get a straight answer about what the delivery costs us and what we make.

The fine print, unfined

Six things this programme doesn't do.

Each of these exists in partner programmes we've seen. None of them exist here.

NOT HERE

No minimum threshold

Earn $400 in a quarter and $400 is transferred. Nothing is held back until you reach a figure.

NOT HERE

No clawbacks

If a client cancels later, the commission you've already been paid stays paid. Delivery risk is ours, not yours.

NOT HERE

No tier games

No bronze, silver or gold, no annual quota to re-qualify, no rate cut for a slow year. The rate follows the work you did on that deal.

NOT HERE

No exclusivity demand

Work with other vendors. Recommend a competitor when they fit better. We'd think less of you if you didn't.

NOT HERE

No fees of any kind

No joining fee, certification fee, portal licence, marketing levy or annual renewal. Money moves one direction only: to you.

AND NEVER THIS

No going around you

Registered accounts are yours for the life of the relationship. Every future project at that client pays you, whether you were involved in it or not.

Money questions

The ones worth asking before you sign anything.

How do I get paid, in which currency, and who covers the fees?

Bank transfer in USD, EUR, GBP, AED or INR — whichever suits you — from whichever of our entities is most efficient for your country. We cover the transfer fees on our side. Local taxes and any withholding obligations are yours, and we provide the documentation your accountant will ask for.

What if the client pays us late, or doesn't pay?

Commission follows collection, so a late payment means late commission — and we'll tell you the moment an invoice ages rather than leaving you wondering. Non-payment is rare because we invoice per increment, meaning exposure is capped at one two-week block. In a genuine dispute we'll talk to you before we escalate to your client, because that relationship is yours to protect.

Can I mark up your price and keep the difference?

Under white-label, yes — that's exactly the model. You set the client price, we quote you a delivery cost, and the margin is yours to determine. Under refer and co-sell the client sees our pricing directly, so a hidden markup isn't possible and we'd rather you took the higher co-sell rate than tried to construct one.

What counts as "registering" a client, and what if two partners claim one?

You email us the company name and your contact there; we confirm registration in writing the same day, and it's timestamped. First registration wins, full stop — no negotiation, no splitting, no judgement call about who had the better relationship. If a company is already an active IntegrateX client we'll tell you immediately so you don't spend effort on it.

What happens to my commission if I stop being a partner?

Retainer commission on deals you closed continues to be paid on the same schedule, whether you leave the programme, wind down your agency, or simply stop bringing new business. You earned it. A programme that switches off residual income the moment you stop selling is a programme that treats partners as disposable, and we've been on the receiving end of that ourselves.

Are these rates negotiable?

The published rates are the same for everybody, which is deliberate — a partner who negotiated harder shouldn't earn more than a partner who brings better clients. Where there's genuine room to discuss is an unusually large engagement or a partner taking on delivery responsibility beyond the standard models. Bring it to the call and we'll be straight with you about what's possible.
