Automattic for Agencies Partner Earnings

Automattic for Agencies Partners can generate income with referrals and bulk purchases of Automattic products by:

  • Referring customers to Automattic. 
  • Buying products in bulk at a discounted rate and reselling those products to your customers. 

(Note that your earnings will fluctuate based on the volume of business you do with Automattic.)

To be eligible to earn commission on referrals and resales, your customer purchases must be: 

1. Trackable via the Automattic for Agencies plugin.  

OR

2. Purchased through an Automattic for Agencies cart, or via another method determined by Automattic. 

In scenario two, Automattic for Agencies owns the billing relationship with the end customer. We may offer you a revenue share for those referrals as outlined in the table below. Commissions are calculated on a 60-day payout period and are net of refunds and chargebacks. The second method is bulk purchase at volume discount. Volume discounts do not earn a revenue share, though they may be eligible for other incentives as outlined below. 

Below are the incentives and additional terms for referrals and wholesale/volume purchases.

To be eligible to earn on purchases of hosting, referrals, or migrations, you must purchase the plan and install that plugin within thirty (30) days of migration, or in advance of a purchase, in the case of non-migrations. To be eligible to earn on extension purchases or renewals, the plugin must be installed.
