Three ways to partner

Pick the track that fits your business.

Different partners bring different value. We've designed three tracks with distinct economics and obligations so you can join at the depth that fits — and change track later if it makes sense.

Implementation Partner
Sell · implement · own the customer relationship

You implement and resell the twelve Business Central extensions and the vertical ERPs. You own the customer relationship from discovery through go-live and steady state. We back-line you with pre-sales engineering, sandbox tenants, escalation support and product-team access.

Good fit if…
  • BC-certified consulting practice with existing customers
  • Team of 5+ implementers with active BC engagements
  • Region we don't cover directly (any country outside India)
  • Willingness to invest in sandbox demos and joint sales calls
Commercial
  • 25% implementation margin on licence revenue
  • 15% off list on partner-owned deals
  • Deal registration: 90-day protection window
  • MDF none · substituted by joint co-branded marketing
Referral Partner
Introduce · earn · no implementation obligation

You introduce leads through your network — accounting practices, systems integrators, industry advisors, existing BC customers who love the product. We take it from there. You get a commission on closed deals, without needing an implementation team.

Good fit if…
  • Accountancy / advisory practice with SME clients
  • Industry consultant with BC-adjacent network
  • Existing SourceForge customer willing to introduce peers
  • One good lead per quarter minimum
Commercial
  • 10% referral commission on year-one licence
  • Recurring on renewals for the first three years
  • Deal registration: 60-day protection window
  • No product-training or certification requirements
Technology / ISV Partner
Integrate · publish · co-sell

You build sibling AppSource extensions that integrate with our platform through published interfaces — ISiblingIntegration for SpendFlow, ITaxPack for country packs, IBanking Provider for aggregators, IAI Provider for scheduling. Your app shows up in our reference architecture; our app shows up in yours.

Good fit if…
  • AppSource-published ISV or partner in flight
  • Vertical-specific extension with a BC customer base
  • Cloud AI, data or fintech vendor with a BC integration story
  • Willingness to co-market and co-support integrated customers
Commercial
  • Zero-cost interface integration (published, versioned)
  • Featured in our reference architecture and partner directory
  • Joint webinars and case studies
  • Co-selling with mutual deal registration
Why partner with SourceForge

Six reasons partners choose us.

The reasons that matter on month three, not just week one. Real product depth, honest economics, and a support model where you never talk to a salesperson pretending to be technical.

Twelve production extensions ready to sell

No development risk. All shipped, all on BC 27+ SaaS, all standalone (dependencies: []), all AppSource-pathed. AI where it earns its keep and nowhere else. You quote what exists — nothing to invent, nothing to promise late.

Regions we don't cover directly

SourceForge sells globally from India. Any country where we don't have an active presence is a partner region. That's most of them. You bring the local relationship; we bring the product and the engineering.

Honest deal registration

Register a deal, get a 60- or 90-day protection window depending on partner type. We honour it. If the customer contacts us directly during your window, the deal is yours. No games, no double-selling.

A real engineer on every deal

Pre-sales calls, architecture reviews, sandbox demos, RFP responses — done by the person who wrote the code, not a sales overlay. You never sell what a salesperson invented.

Co-branded marketing

Joint case studies, co-authored LinkedIn content, webinar co-hosting, conference stand shares. Your logo shows up on our site's partner directory; ours shows up on your case study.

Per-tenant pricing you can quote confidently

SpendFlow, Planning Studio, Direct Banking — all priced per tenant, not per employee. No punishing scale tax. Partners can quote a 50-employee customer and a 500-employee customer on the same tier without margin anxiety.

Commercial at a glance

Straight economics. No fine print.

The four numbers that matter. Full terms sit in the Partner MSA — usually two negotiation rounds.

What we provide

Six things that show up in your day-to-day.

Onboarding

One week of onboarding for a new partner: product walkthrough by module, sandbox provisioning, deal-reg training, invoice mechanics.

Product training

Recorded module deep-dives for every BC extension. Live workshops per new release. Certification path for implementation partners — badge on the partner directory.

Sandbox tenants

BC 27+ sandbox tenants pre-loaded with the full extension suite for demos. Refreshed monthly. Provisioning is one email — no ticket to raise.

RFP + architecture support

We respond to your customer's RFP as an extension of your team. Named engineer on the response. If needed, we join the customer call — as your team, not ours.

Escalation path

Direct Slack/Teams channel with a named engineer for L2/L3 escalations. P1 acknowledgement inside 15 minutes for contracted partners. No support-ticket black-hole.

Partner directory listing

Public directory of active partners on /partners with your logo, region, specialisation and certification badges. Leads from our contact form matched by region.

What we ask in return

Four commitments. That's the whole list.

Short deliberately — anything longer would be an over-reach. We'd rather work with partners who make these four commitments seriously than partners who tick twenty boxes for form.

Real BC capability

For implementation partners: a BC-certified team of at least 5 people with active customer engagements. For referral partners: only that the leads you introduce are genuine, not scraped lists.

Modest minimum commitment

Implementation partners: 4 qualifying deals over the first 12 months, then 8/year. Referral partners: one qualifying introduction per quarter. Technology partners: a live integration published within 6 months of signing.

Honest attribution

Deal registration is honoured both ways. If we bring a lead to your region and you take it forward, it's your deal. If you bring a lead to us and it closes without you, we credit you anyway.

Customer-first when there's friction

When something goes wrong at a customer, we solve the customer's problem first and figure out margin second. We ask partners to do the same. Every dispute we've had has come from someone not doing this.

Frequently asked questions

Partner FAQ

A real engineer reads every application. We reply within one working day with either a decision, a follow-up call proposal, or an honest not-yet with reasons. Implementation partner reviews take longer than referral — 3–5 working days total including a call — because we vet team certification and reference customers. Referral partners are usually decided on the first response.
