Referral and VAR Partner Programs

ZenDati DataVault is a great opportunity for you to help your friends, peers and customers gain Peace of Mind through Data Protection. Not only will your they thank you, but you will earn commissions on each and every new customer you bring to us.

Referral vs. VAR Partner
As a Referral Partner you would refer our services to your contacts and leave the billing and support to ZenDati. For every one of your referrals who signs-up, you will receive a lump sum commission.

As a Value Added Reseller (VAR) Partner you take a more active role in client management. Your firm will purchase services from ZenDati and then resell them to your clients. You will control all end customer billing and are responsible for the 1st Tier of Tech Support. As such you can use ZenDati DataVault as a sort of catalyst to help increase your services revenue by setting up a regular maintenance schedule with your clients (more about his later).

Commission Structure Δ

When you refer someone new who buys a ZenDati DataVault plan, you will earn a commission based on what plan they purchase.

Lump Sum Commissions
Rather than paying you small percentages over time, we prefer to give you a healthy lump sum commission for each new customer you refer. Therefore, for each new customer plan, you will earn:
  • 2x the monthly backup plan price

You will earn this high lump sum commission regardless of whether they sign up for annual or monthly billing.

This chart shows you exactly how much you can earn from each type of backup plan:

The Money Adds Up Quickly... Δ

Commissions can add up to a significant amount very quickly, as you can see below:

For example, lets follow the story of Dave.
This month Dave referred customers who purchased the following DataVault products:
  • 3x DataVault Express 5
  • 2x DataVault Express 10
  • 1x DataVault Express 20
  • 2x DataVault Pro 10
  • 1x DataVault Pro 30
  • 1x DataVault Pro 50
  • 0x DataVault Pro 70
  • 0x DataVault Pro 100
With 10 referrals to his name this month, it represents a good start. Dave knows he could do better but this was his first month talking about backup services. As you can see from the table, even with only 10 referrals this month Dave earned a total of $590.00 in commissions.

Next month Dave has a “Better” month now that he is getting into his groove talking about this fantastic service. His customers are real happy and have been telling him so. In that month, he referred 14 people and earned a total of $980.00.

During the third (and final month of our tracking,) Dave has his best month yet. With 18 referrals, that averages out at to far less than 1 per day and Dave uses that benchmark as a kind of game. Each day he tries to end his day with one sale. In that month, he earned a total of $1480.00.

In total over the last 3 months, Dave has earned $3050.00 in commissions!!

As you can see, it adds up quickly.

Tracking and Payments Δ

We provide you access to a Partner Web Portal where you can track all your referrals and commissions. It is also from this portal that you can request payouts. Payments can be requested either by Cheque or PayPal.
Note: Commissions are credited to your account after the 3rd month if the customer account is still active an in good payment standing.
