Two tracks

Two ways to partner with Zipchat as an agency

Pick the model that fits how your agency already works. The referral track pays 50% recurring per client, with no time limit.

Referral agency

For agencies that introduce clients to Zipchat and earn on subscription revenue.

  • 50% recurring commission per client, with no time limit
  • White-label branding: replace "Powered by Zipchat" with your agency name
  • Your branded chat becomes a passive lead source as clients' customers ask who built the AI
  • Dedicated partner portal with commission tracking and payout history
  • Agencies averaging 25 referrals earn $5k+/month

Managed accounts

For agencies running Zipchat as a billable managed service across multiple client stores.

  • One master account to manage all client sub-accounts from a single dashboard
  • Set your own client pricing: agencies typically charge $300-$1,000+ per account per month
  • Full white-label branding across every managed account
  • Add, configure, and train each client's AI from one place without separate logins
  • Agencies managing 25 accounts earn $15k+/month
Benefits

What agency partners get

Benefits apply across both the referral and managed accounts tracks.

50% recurring, no time limit

50% of every referred client's monthly Zipchat subscription lands in your account every month for as long as they stay subscribed, with no time limit. As your client count grows, so does the monthly recurring income.

White-label branding

The "Powered by Zipchat" badge inside the chat widget is replaced with your agency name. Your brand stays visible inside every client store you power.

Passive referral loop

When clients' customers ask who built the AI, your agency gets the credit. The more stores you power, the more inbound attention your agency attracts from other brands.

Sub-account dashboard

Every client's AI agent, training data, conversation history, and performance lives in one dashboard. Manage 5 accounts or 50 without switching logins.

Partner portal

Real-time commission tracking, client activity, payout history, and performance data. Your earnings are transparent at every level.

Priority support

Agency partners are outside the standard support queue. Dedicated support for setup questions, technical issues, and client escalations.

How it works

How the agency partner program works

  1. 1

    Apply

    Fill the application form in under 5 minutes. The Zipchat team reviews agency applications within 48 hours and confirms approval by email.

  2. 2

    Set up your first client

    Connect the client's store, train the AI on their product catalog and policies, and configure the white-label branding. First setup takes 20-60 minutes depending on catalog size.

  3. 3

    Earn as you grow

    Commission pays monthly. Every additional client you add compounds your monthly recurring income. Managed account agencies set their own client billing from day one.

The difference

The difference a Zipchat agency partnership makes

Without a Zipchat agency partnership

  • Recommending tools you earn nothing from

  • Managing each client's tools across separate platforms and logins
  • A one-time setup fee with no ongoing income
  • Competing for new clients with no differentiation
  • Shared support queues for your client's urgent questions

As a Zipchat agency partner

  • 50% recurring commission on every client's monthly subscription, with no time limit
  • Your brand is visible inside the chat on every store you power
  • All client accounts, agents, and training in one master dashboard
  • Monthly recurring revenue that grows with your client count
  • Your AI-powered chat becomes a lead source for new client enquiries
  • Priority support for agency partners outside the standard queue
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much can I earn as a Zipchat agency partner?

Referral agencies averaging 25 active clients earn $5k+/month in recurring commission at the 50% rate. Managed account agencies averaging 25 client sub-accounts earn $15k+/month when charging clients $600-$700 per account. Both figures are based on real partner data as of April 2026.

How does the 50% recurring commission work?

You earn 50% of each referred client's monthly Zipchat subscription, paid out monthly for as long as they remain a paying customer. There is no time limit on the commission. The agency partner program is open to qualified agencies that implement Zipchat for ecommerce clients.

What is the difference between the referral agency and managed accounts tracks?

In the referral track, you introduce clients to Zipchat and earn 50% of their subscription revenue per client. In the managed accounts track, you buy a master account, add client sub-accounts, set your own pricing, and run Zipchat as a billable managed service. Commission from referrals does not apply to managed account billing: the two tracks are separate revenue models.

What does the white-label branding include?

White-label branding replaces the "Powered by Zipchat" attribution inside the chat widget with your agency name. Clients choose whether to disclose what platform powers the AI or present it as a proprietary agency product. The swap takes under a minute to configure per account.

What types of ecommerce businesses do agency partners typically work with?

Agency partners primarily implement Zipchat for Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento stores. Most agency clients have between 1,000 and 100,000 monthly visitors and operate in verticals including fashion, beauty, health, electronics, home goods, and food.

How long does the application take?

The application form takes under 5 minutes. Zipchat reviews all agency applications within 48 hours and sends a decision by email. Approved agencies receive immediate access to the partner portal and onboarding materials.
