Quest Partner Program Referral Fee Program

What is the Referral Fee Program?

The Referral Fee Program is available to both Quest Managed and Associate partners. The objective of the program is to acknowledge and reward our referral partners for their role in the sales cycle.

How does it work?

  1. Register your engagement as early in the sales cycle as possible.
  2. Your registration will be reviewed and approved by a Quest Sales Manager.
  3. Quest and partner will sign the Teaming Agreement.
  4. Your opportunity will be tracked in our CRM system.
  5. You will receive payment 45 days after Quest receives payment from the customer.

How are the fees determined?

The amount of the referral fee is determined by the role the partner is planning to play in the sales cycle. Fees can be up to 10%, depending the country, and are negotiated and agreed to in advance.

Payment levels include:

3% Quest-led Selling6% Collaborative Selling10% Partner-led Selling

Read more details on the expectations of each payment level.

Are there any restrictions?

Referral fees are not available where the partner is involved in the resale of the product or services.  Referral fees are paid on license revenue only. Professional Service fees are excluded. Referral fees are paid on a net license revenue.

Referral fee payments are managed by location. Please select North America or International to ensure your request is routed correctly.
