Resellers Welcome
There are 2 types of reseller accounts, Standard and VAR (Value Added Reseller), and there are a few major differences between these account types.
Standard Account 1. Can sell or offer licenses to anyone.
2. Can offer both monthly and owned licenses.
3. Pay per license model, you pay only for licenses you have.
4. Initial account funding amount required to lock in desired pricing.
VAR Account 1. Can only sell or offer licenses to customers as part of a value-add, such as a web hosting reseller account.
2. Unlimited licenses for a single monthly fee.
3. No account funding required, just pay first months service to start.
Standard Reseller Pricing
Our tiered pricing structure means you only pay for licenses you actually need while attaining the pricing level you desire. Opening an account with the listed initial funding amount gets you that tiers pricing. Licenses you add start pulling from your funding amount, which you can refill at any time by adding funds to your account in any amount you desire.
| Pricing Tier | Initial Funding | Monthly Licenses | Owned Licenses |
|---|
| Tier 1 | $500 | $6.00/mo | $125 |
|---|
| Tier 2 | $1500 | $4.50/mo | $105 |
|---|
| Tier 3 | $2500 | $3.00/mo | $90 |
|---|
| Tier 4 | $5000 | $2.50/mo | $70 |
|---|
| Tier 5 | $7500 | $2.00/mo | $55 |

Common Standard Reseller Questions Show/Hide Q: What if I sign up for Tier 1, but want to upgrade to a higher level tier later?
A: Just post a credit to cover the initial funding price of the tier you would like to upgrade to, and open a ticket. We'll upgrade your price tier, and all new and renewing licenses will be billed at the new rate.
Q: Who supports the end user and what is my level of support?
A: We support end users via our forum only and you should provide any other support you wish. We provide forum, email, and phone support for you, the reseller.
Q: How do I add licenses?
A: Licenses must be added through our reseller API. Our API allows licenses to be created, cancelled, suspended, and unsuspended automatically. Our Blesta Reseller module can be used to sell licenses through a running copy of Blesta, or a custom module could be written for a 3rd party billing application. We have written several, so please feel free to ask.
Q: Who can I sell licenses to?
A: Anyone for which the United States does not have trade sanctions or embargoes against, such as Iran and North Korea.
Q: How much can I sell licenses for?
A: As much as you want, you just can't advertise a price lower than 50% below market price. Market price is the price advertised on our website. Licenses can be included free as a value added service with another service, but if there is a cost to the end user for the license itself, the combined package price must not be under 50% of market price.
Q: How much is yearly maintenance on owned licenses?
A: There is a $20/yr optional flat fee for all resold owned licenses for updates and forum support after the first year.
Q: What if I have more questions, and how do I sign up?
A: For more questions, or to sign up, please call at 714-398-8132 or email sales@blesta.com.
