Channel Partner Program

Earn while we build.

Bring the opportunity, keep the relationship, share the upside. Our Channel Partner Program turns agencies, consultants and solo rain-makers into revenue-sharing allies. Zero politics, rapid enablement, transparent maths.

1. Why partner with "42"?

Your Win	How We Deliver
Paid on signed revenue—not murky margins	Flat % or finder’s fee spelled out in a two-page addendum.
Instant technical depth	Architects, UX and devs join demo calls; nightly sandbox resets.
Protect your logo	White-label or co-brand—your call, per deal.
Fast quoting = faster close	AI line-item quote in 24 h, SoW in 72 h.

2. Commission Menu (pick what fits the deal)

Engagement Won	Commission Basis	% / Fee	Paid
Discovery Sprint	Flat fee	R7 500 – R15 000	On sprint invoice paid
Mini-DaaS (≤3 FTE)	% of first 3 mo retainer	8 – 12 %	End of month 3
Sprint Pod	% of first 8 sprints	6 – 10 %	Each sprint invoice
Fixed-Scope Pack	% of contract value	5 – 8 %	50 % kick-off • 50 % final
Milestone Contract	% each milestone	5 % flat	Mirrors client payments
Full DaaS (≥3 FTE)	% of first 6 mo retainer	6 – 10 %	50 % month 2 • 50 % month 6

Uplift: add +2 pp if you self-source the lead and we spend < 5 h on presales.

3. Your responsibilities

You Own	We Own
Initial relationship & warm intro	Deep discovery & solution shaping
Accurate budget expectations	AI quote & draft SoW in agreed SLA
Deal orchestration / follow-ups	Technical demos, prototypes, artifacts
Contract signature with your logo (if white-label)	Delivery, governance, KPIs
Notify us of scope or stakeholder shifts	Re-forecast, risk mitigation

Think of us as your silent product squad: you sell, we ship.

4. Enablement Kit (24-hour turnaround)

Co-branded slide deck (10 slides)
Battlecards by vertical
ROI calculator (Excel)
Security & compliance pack
Live demo sandbox (auto-reset nightly)

5. Presales SLA

Touchpoint	Deadline
Deal registration approval	≤ 1 business day
First ROM quote ROM = Rough-Order-of-Magnitude (±30-50 %).	24 h
Draft SoW / Fixed quote	72 h
Technical Q&A responses	48 h
Demo sandbox setup	5 business days

Miss an SLA? We shave 10 % off our commission share for that deal.

6. Clawback & Fair-play Rules

Commission held if client invoice > 60 days overdue.
Pro-rata clawback if project cancels inside 90 days.
No channel conflict: once you register the deal, we won’t pitch directly without you.

These rules mirror our risk shields in Fixed-Scope & Milestone contracts.
