Program Levels

The Sage Development Partner Program offers three progressive levels that facilitate the growth and exposure of your products.

Silver Development Partner
This entry-level tier is appropriate for clients or business partners looking to customize their Sage solution or to integrate with another application, as well as for independent software firms looking to integrate their own solutions with ours. As a Silver-level development partner, you will receive a correlating logo for use in your collateral and trade show exhibit materials, as well as a listing identifying your applications on the Sage Partner Solution Source at no additional charge.

Gold Development Partner
Our premier tier is aimed at developers who wish to not only experience the benefits of the Silver level development partner, but want even greater visibility and awareness for their solutions among Sage customers and reselling business partners. The Gold-level offers the availability of additional marketing benefits, including exposure within Sage newsletters, a Gold-level logo, web seminars, customer case studies, and more.

*Certifying an off-the-shelf or custom solution is a requirement for Gold Partner status and for receiving full benefits from the Sage Development Partner Program. Please refer to the Gold Partner Program document for specific criteria related to product support and other business and infrastructure elements.

Endorsed Development Partner
Endorsed partners meet rigorous strategic, technology, and integration criteria. Their solutions are handpicked by Sage and marketed aggressively alongside our core solutions. Enrollment in this program is by invitation only.
