Partner program

Templ is managed WordPress hosting built for agencies. As a partner, you focus on your core business and client relationships while we handle operations, performance, security, and support.

Two ways to partner

There are two partner models at Templ, and you can freely mix them across your clients.

Reseller

Your clients' websites are placed on your own Templ account. You set your own price, Templ bills you, and you bill your clients. This is a good fit if you want to own your clients' hosting - for example to offer it as part of a support or maintenance package.

As a reseller, you are the point of contact with Templ support - your clients don't contact us directly. A volume-based discount is available and starts at 10 paying websites on your partner account. Contact support for details.

Affiliate

Your clients have their own Templ accounts and are billed by Templ directly. You earn a signup bonus and recurring commission for each new customer you refer. This is a good fit for clients who want to own their own hosting, or if you'd rather not own your clients' hosting yourself.

With their own accounts, your clients can contact Templ support directly whenever they need help.

See the affiliate program for how commission, the signup bonus, and payouts work.

Mix both

You can combine both models. Some clients you may want us to bill for hosting, while others you invoice yourself.

What's included

Being a partner comes with a number of benefits at no extra cost.

  • Unlimited development sites - build client sites for free on development plans, with no time limit.
  • Blueprints - roll out new client sites quickly by creating a single blueprint with your preferred plugins and setup, then copying it to new clients.
  • Partner directory listing - get listed on the Templ partners page with a direct link to your site, so leads that come in through our hosting can find an agency with your qualifications.
  • Shared Slack channel - for faster, more structured support, we can open a shared Slack channel where our technical experts communicate with you directly.
  • Co-branded panel - your clients see your logo alongside Templ's when logged in to the Templ Panel. Send an SVG logo to support, and our staff will set it up. This is co-branding, not white-label hosting; the Panel isn't available through your own domain.
  • Developer feedback meetings - book a meeting directly with Templ's developers to discuss your agency's needs and suggestions.
