Guidelines for Revenue Sharing
At ManyChat, we understand that our agency partners work hard to educate clients on the benefits of Messenger Marketing and to help those clients achieve their goals. As a reward for bringing new paid clients on to the ManyChat platform, we will pay agency partners 20% of the monthly recurring revenue that we receive from the referred client for as long as the client remains a Pro subscriber of ManyChat.
Please familiarize yourself with the revenue sharing program guidelines:
1. Agencies who are a part of the ManyChat Partner Program as an Agency Partner will get paid commissions for new Pro referrals. The referral must occur after the agency has joined the partner program and the agency will need to be an admin of the client’s bot in ManyChat to be eligible for revenue share.
2. Agencies are only able to apply for revenue share on accounts that are created inside of ManyChat. If an account is created from third-party services (like installing ManyChat from the Shopify App Store) then an agency can not apply for revenue share.
3. Agencies are required to be an admin of the client’s bot in ManyChat to be eligible for revenue share. ManyChat strongly recommends that the agency is also added as an admin on the client’s Facebook page that is connected to the bot, which will grant the agency access to tools such as Facebook Ads to grow the client’s business. This access also allows an agency to update permissions and solve connection-related issues with ease.
4. No commissions will be paid for referrals of clients who only create free accounts of ManyChat.
5. Referrals and commissions will be calculated and paid at the bot or page level. For an agency to be paid commissions on multiple bots/pages from the same client, they will need to at least be the admin of the bot in ManyChat for each of the bots/pages. This is a designation within the ManyChat system and each bot can have only one referring agency of record.
6. There is no affiliate link for the Agency Partner Program revenue sharing; this process is automatic. Credit will automatically be applied as long as you are an admin on the account when it upgrades to Pro.
7. Agencies will get paid recurring monthly commission payments for as long as the referred client bot has a non-delinquent Pro subscription. This does not require the agency to have an ongoing relationship with the client. There is a 60-day grace period after a client upgrades to a Pro page for an Agency to be added as an admin to receive revenue share.
8. The agency that is connected to the client’s bot when the Pro subscription upgrade is made will be the agency that receives a commission for the life of the Pro subscription.
9. Under no condition will ManyChat pay more than one agency commissions for a single bot per month.
10. The client's Pro subscription must be in good standing for the agency to get their commission. If the subscription lapses for any reason — such as the credit card associated with the account expires or the customer downgrades the bot to a Free plan or cancels — all referral commissions will be put on hold. The commission payouts will resume once the Pro subscription is restored by the client or agency.
11. The agency will need to register for an account within the payout system, either Ambassador or PartnerStack, and takes responsibility to ensure all information within the system is accurate.
12. Payments are currently supported only via PayPal or Stripe. Country restrictions do apply. Please reach out to us for more questions.
13. ManyChat may withhold payments of accrued commissions for up to 30 days to ensure there are no disputes with or returns of the purchased subscription. In addition, ManyChat may wait until the agency accrues a minimum threshold of commissions before issuing a payment.
Private Agency Community
All agencies within the ManyChat Agency Program will have access to a private community in order to ask questions of ManyChat employees or each other, share best practices, and learn from peers. Participation in the community requires following community guidelines regarding appropriate behavior, SPAM, and overtly selling one's own services.
Please register for the Community. You will find an invitation to the community in your welcome email once you join the program.
Priority Support
Agency partners will receive access to Priority Support. Priority Support tickets will be handled first by the ManyChat support team. While we do not guarantee SLAs for Priority Support, we expect to respond to tickets within 24 hours and resolve them as fast as possible.
As soon as you are eligible, all your new tickets submitted via normal support channels will automatically be routed to the priority queue.
Agency Listing
Messenger Marketing Experts will have their agencies listed in our agency listing on ManyChat.com. Prospective customers will be able to see a brief profile and contact information for each agency in the directory.
If you wish to NOT have your agency listed in the directory please let us know at agency@manychat.com.
Co-marketing
As a member in good standing of the ManyChat Agency Program, agency partners will be able to use the ManyChat Agency Partner logo and Messenger Marketing Expert logo (for agencies that are Messenger Marketing Experts) on their Website or as part of their marketing efforts. Beyond these two specific logos, participation in the program does not allow agencies to use the ManyChat logo, name, or brand in ways that are not explicitly pre-approved within the guidelines of the ManyChat Agency Program.
