Referral Partners
Make the introduction.
We’ll take it from there.
Referral Partners are trusted by business owners. When one of them needs serious engineering, you make a warm introduction and step back. We handle every conversation, proposal and line of code, and you share in every retainer payment the client makes, for the life of the client.
Who it’s for
People business owners already trust.
You don’t need to know anything about software. You need to know people, and recognize when one of them needs help.
Advisors
Accountants, lawyers, bankers and consultants whose clients ask them who to trust with technology.
Operators & investors
Founders, executives, angels and fund managers who see companies that need a serious engineering team.
Communities
Agency owners, trading communities, industry groups and anyone at the centre of a network of businesses.
The division of labour
You introduce. We do the rest.
Referral Partners are never client-facing after the introduction, unless they want to be. You never sell, scope, price or support.

Your share
A share of every retainer, for the life of the client.
Retainers are monthly, so your share is too. There’s nothing to invoice and nothing to chase.
From the first payment
Your share is paid when the client’s first retainer payment clears, not months later.
On every payment after
Every monthly retainer payment the client makes earns your share again.
For the life of the client
For as long as the client stays with us. If their retainer grows, your share grows with it.
The exact share and terms are set out in your partner agreement on the Portal, so they are always current.
Everything you need
Equipped from day one.
