Partners

Grow your business with mine.

Three ways to partner — pick whichever fits your business model. All three are open now, and most partners run a combination of two.

For agencies

White-Label

Agencies + consultancies who need delivery capacity

Sell my engineering capacity under your brand. Keep the client relationship. Deliver enterprise-grade work without expanding your headcount.

  • Up to 40% margin on retail pricing
  • Mutual NDA + IP protection signed before kickoff
  • Dedicated account contact (me, directly)
  • Co-branded proposals available
  • Volume discounts on 3+ concurrent projects
Apply for white-label
For consultants

Referral Program

Consultants, freelancers, advisors with founder networks

Refer founders who need development. Earn ongoing commission with zero overhead — I handle the project, you get paid.

  • 15% of project value on first engagement
  • 10% recurring on retainer clients
  • Quarterly payouts via Stripe
  • Marketing assets (pitch deck, case studies) provided
  • Co-attended discovery calls if you want them

For SaaS tools

Technology Partner

SaaS tools and infra companies who want preferred-status placement

Become a recommended tool in my stack. I'll prioritize your platform in client projects when it's a fit and co-market our integration patterns.

  • Featured in service detail pages + about page
  • Joint blog posts and integration tutorials
  • First-look access for client deployments
  • Integration certification + reference architecture
  • Quarterly office-hour calls

How it works

Three steps to first project.

  1. 01

    Email me to start

    Send a short message to partners@shipthane.com — which program, what kind of clients you serve, what timeline. I'll reply within 24 hours.

  2. 02

    We sign the agreement

    Standard mutual NDA + program agreement. Most partners are signed and active within 48 hours of the first email.

  3. 03

    Start sending work

    For referrals: intro emails with a cc. For white-label: I onboard into your project management workflow. For tech: we draft the first joint piece.

FAQ

What partners ask.

  • Can I apply for more than one program?

    Yes — most existing partners run a combination of white-label and referral. They have anchor clients they deliver under their brand, plus a long tail of referrals where I work direct. Just mention it in the inquiry email.

  • How quickly can I start sending referrals?

    Same week. Send an intro email cc'ing me + the lead, and you're in the referral system. I'll confirm scope with the founder and your commission is locked in at first invoice.

  • Do you have a partner portal / dashboard?

    Not yet. V1 of the program runs on email + Stripe Connect for payouts. If you hit the volume tier where a dashboard would help (5+ active referrals), I'll build one — but that's not a launch blocker for most partners.

  • What happens if a referred client churns or refunds?

    First-invoice commissions are paid after the project lands successfully (no clawback). Retainer recurring commissions stop the month the client churns. Refunds (within the 14-day window) clawback the corresponding commission. All standard.

  • Do you accept partnerships outside the US?

    Yes. International partners welcome — main market is still US founders, but I serve global. Stripe Connect handles cross-border payouts.
