# Partner program

Your partner type depends on how you work with Signable and who owns the end-customer relationship. Use the table below to find the type that best matches your organisation.

| If you | Partner type | Customer relationship |
|  --- | --- | --- |
| Embed Signable in your software and sell it as a feature | [Reseller Partner](#reseller-partner) | You set prices, bill customers, and provide support |
| Introduce customers to Signable | [Referral Partner](#referral-partner) | Signable contracts with, bills, and supports the customer |
| Build and manage an integration between Signable and another platform | [Systems Integrator](#systems-integrator) | Signable contracts with, bills, and supports the customer |


You can hold more than one type. Systems Integrators can also join the referral scheme under a separate agreement.

## Reseller Partner

A Reseller Partner integrates Signable into their own software and sells it to their customers as an e-signature feature. The partner owns the commercial relationship, and the feature can carry the partner's branding or openly attribute Signable.

- The partner embeds Signable in their software using the API.
- Signable provisions each of the partner's customers as a [sub-account](/partners/reseller-model#account-structure). There is no limit on the number of sub-accounts, and each one carries individual branding, so signature request emails and signing pages render with the customer's own branding.
- The partner sets pricing, bills their customers, and provides all customer support.
- Signable invoices the partner in arrears at the end of each billing period for aggregate usage across all sub-accounts.


Reseller Partner example
A CRM lets its customers send onboarding documents for signature from within the CRM and charges them for that capability.

To apply, see [Partner sign up](https://www.signable.com/signable-partnership/#sign-up-partners).

For implementation steps, see [Getting started](/partners/getting-started).

## Referral Partner

A Referral Partner introduces customers to Signable and takes no part in the resulting contract. Referred customers become standard Signable customers, and Signable bills and supports them directly.

The partner receives a 10% commission when a referred customer signs up for a paid plan. Commission is paid for up to one year from the customer’s signup date.

Referral Partner example
A management software vendor recommends Signable to its customers, who continue with Signable independently, and takes no part in billing them for Signable usage.

To apply, see [Join the referral program](https://www.signable.com/referral-program/).

## Systems Integrator

A Systems Integrator builds and maintains the integration between Signable and another platform, either their own or a customer's. The end customer contracts with Signable directly, so Signable bills and supports them.

- The partner can recommend Signable as part of a wider technology stack.
- The partner receives no commission unless they also hold a [Referral Partner](#referral-partner) agreement, which is a separate commercial arrangement.


Systems Integrator example
A software house builds bespoke systems for its clients and offers e-signature as part of the delivered solution. The integrator can work purely in that type, or hold a Referral Partner agreement alongside the integration work.
