Who the program is intended for

The program is designed for companies that advise business clients on IT and digitalization – from system integrators to software vendors.

IT System Integrators

Expand your portfolio to include digital signatures and contract workflows—without taking on any product risk of your own.

IT Service Providers & MSPs

Recurring license revenue from your existing customers, plus services related to implementation and operation.

Data Centers & Cloud Providers

German infrastructure is your selling point—and ours. Enhance your hosting offering with legally valid signatures.

Software Providers & Integrators

Integrate signature and document processes directly into your own application via API.

Three ways to earn with us

From a first referral to your own brand. You decide how deep you want to go.

Referral

You refer Paperless to clients in your network and hand over the contact – we take care of the demo, proposal, and closing. No effort, no commitment.

Reseller

You sell Paperless licenses to your clients under your own name. Consulting, onboarding, and first-level support can be your own service offering – or you hand them over to us.

White-label

You offer the platform under your own brand – with your logo, your colors, your domain. Ideal for data centers, associations, and platform providers with an existing customer base.
Compliance & Data Sovereignty

Compliance is your strongest selling point

Your clients ask about legal certainty and data sovereignty. Paperless delivers both: qualified electronic signatures under eIDAS, GDPR-compliant processing, and hosting exclusively in Germany – platform, signatures, and support from a single source.

This is what sets us apart from U.S. providers, especially for data centers, public sector clients, and regulated industries.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the margin?

Resellers start with a base margin and can advance based on sales volume – up to 30% on license revenue. Referral partners receive up to 10% commission on the annual revenue of the referred customer. We transparently disclose the exact terms and conditions before the contract is signed.

What are the minimum requirements?

For referral partners: none. Resellers should have an existing customer base in the B2B sector and sales capacity. There is no minimum revenue requirement in the first year – we’ll work together to set realistic goals.

How long is the partnership agreement valid?

The minimum term is 12 months. After that, the contract is automatically renewed and can be canceled on a quarterly basis.

Who is responsible for implementation and support?

That's up to you. Resellers can handle implementation and first-level support themselves and sell them as their own services – or outsource both to us. Second-level support and platform operations are always handled by Paperless.

Are partners listed on the website?

Yes. Active partners appear in the public partner directory with their profile, areas of expertise, and contact information - the directory is a real source of leads.

Do I need to be able to offer QES myself?

No. Qualified signatures and the associated identification run entirely through the Paperless platform. You sell the solution without having to meet any regulatory requirements yourself.
