Referrals and leads
Partners who pass a lead to 7x receive a commission of 10% of the total contract value for a cold lead and 20% for a hot lead (a customer ready to purchase from 7x) (Partner plans and prices, partner terms). An integrator often meets customers who need hosting, support or development beyond the integration; the referral rules, qualification and hand-off are on Referrals and leads and Lead hand-offs.
Joining
- Read the program pages and choose a level (How to apply).
- Pay first, then sign: buy the partner subscription in the 7x store, then sign the partnership agreement and send it to the partner team.
- Contact: [email protected], or the form at https://exponential.earth/partner/contact-us.
A partner website and dashboard are planned for mid-2027; until then, log your activity yourself (Logging partner activity).
What is not published
How integration projects or published connectors count toward points or levels beyond what the partner pages say, and any integrator-specific terms, are not published; ask the partner team. Contributions in general count as community work (Earning points through community work).
