Connect Stripe
Sign in to the Partner Console and link your business account via Stripe Connect Express. That account is the destination every commission transfers to—which is why it is required before you can earn.
Channel Partner Program
Give your clients software they actually own. Keep 50% above our $500 floor.
Most software affiliate programs pay pennies for a few months and lock payouts for 90 days. FoundrySuite pays partners up to $850 per workstation—settled instantly via Stripe Connect the moment your client buys, or every month across 12- and 24-month ownership plans.
$500
the non-negotiable license floor. It is the price of the software itself, and it is never split.
50/50
of every dollar above that floor, divided between Project Foundry and the partner of record.
20%
the deepest discount a partner may offer a client on their own code—$440 off the $2,200 public price.
Why partners switch from cloud SaaS referrals
Referral programs for hosted software pay you a fraction of a subscription that can be cancelled next year. This program pays you a share of a purchase the client keeps.
Real margin, not pennies
The public MSRP is $2,200 ($200/mo × 12 or $110/mo × 24). Above our non-negotiable $500 license floor, every dollar of revenue is split 50/50 between Project Foundry and you.
Instant Stripe Connect payouts
No 60-day holding periods, no minimum payout thresholds, and no chasing invoices. When a client checkout clears—whether a $2,200 outright purchase or a monthly installment—your share transfers automatically to your connected Stripe account in the same webhook cycle.
You control the client discount
Inside the Partner Console, generate custom promo codes and set your own discount up to 20% off MSRP ($440 in instant client savings). Need deeper volume pricing for a trade association or multi-seat deployment? Request a custom floor-safe override right in the portal.
The commission math on one workstation license
Every number below is the split the billing engine actually computes: the floor is never divided, and half of everything above it is yours.
| Client discount | Client pays, outright | Client saves | Your commission, outright | On the 12-month plan | On the 24-month plan |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0% — referral link / full MSRP | $2,200 once | $0 | $850.00 | $949.92 total — ~$79.16/mo | $1,069.92 total — ~$44.58/mo |
| 10% — partner discount code | $1,980 once | $220 | $740.00 | ~$69.16/mo × 12 | ~$39.08/mo × 24 |
| 20% — partner discount code (max self-serve) | $1,760 once | $440 | $630.00 | ~$59.16/mo × 12 | ~$33.58/mo × 24 |
| Association / volume override — custom approval | Negotiated member rate | Down toward the $500 license floor | Custom split for large member organizations: massive member savings while generating non-dues revenue for your association. | ||
Installment recurring cash flow
When a client chooses the $200/mo (12-month) or $110/mo (24-month) ownership plan, the $500 floor is amortized across the term — $41.67/mo over 12 months and $20.83/mo over 24 months — and 50% of every installment above that floor lands in your Stripe account automatically each month. A partner who onboards a client onto the 24-month plan is paid twenty-four times, not once.
Built for three kinds of partner
The program is the same for all three. What changes is where the margin sits in your day.
Accountants, CPAs & bookkeepers
Stop untangling broken cloud syncs and netted-out Shopify/TikTok/Square deposits at tax time. Put clients on a real double-entry ledger with automatic Schedule C mapping and trial balances—and earn $630–$850 per client.
IT consultants, MSPs & system integrators
Deploy a fast, offline-capable business suite on the Windows, Mac, or Linux workstations you already manage. Charge your own implementation or migration fee, plus keep half the software margin with zero cloud outages to troubleshoot.
Trade associations, franchises & advisors
Give your members a high-value negotiated discount off our $2,200 public MSRP that immediately pays for their association dues, while creating a recurring revenue stream for your organization.
How the Partner Console works
Four steps, in order, from sign-up to first payout.
Mint your code
Create a branded promo code (for example SMITHCPA or BUILDERS20) and choose the client discount percentage, from 0% to 20%.
Share or deploy
Your client trials the full platform for 30 days, no credit card required, or enters your code directly on the Pricing page at checkout.
Get paid instantly
The moment their payment or monthly installment settles, your 50% above-floor split transfers to your Stripe balance and the contract appears in your Partner Console ledger.
Partner questions
What happens if a client starts with the free 30-day trial first?
They enter your promo code when they buy their license key, on or before Day 30. The trial is the whole product with no card attached, and the code is applied at the same checkout as every other buyer’s—there is no separate partner path to reconcile afterwards.
Do I have to provide technical support?
No—we handle software updates and licensing support, though MSPs and CPAs are free to bill for their own setup, bookkeeping, or advisory services. The ongoing work is ours; the margin on the software is yours.
Are there minimum sales quotas or program fees?
$0 to join, no annual quotas, and no minimum sales volume. A partner whose code redeems once a year earns the same split as one whose code redeems every week.
Why is there a $500 floor at all?
It is the price of the software itself—the part of every sale that is never split. Your margin exists on the part of the price you had discretion over, which is why a deeper discount means a smaller commission, and why no partner code can take the license below $500.
Can we negotiate deeper discounts or a different split?
Trade associations and partners with volume commitments can request a custom floor-safe override in the Partner Console. The floor itself is not negotiable below $500, but the rate above it can be, and the request is made by the partner, not by a sales rep you have to justify it to.
