Join our partner programme
Know people who'd benefit from Vestd? Refer them, and get rewarded for it.
Choose how you're rewarded (commission, client discounts, or donations), track referrals through one dashboard, and get co-marketing support as you grow. We're keeping this programme small: 50 seats, reserved for partners who already understand the value of what we do.
WHO IT'S FOR
We're here to make life easier, and more rewarding, for you and the people you know
Customers
Turn your good experience into rewards. Recommend Vestd to founders you know and earn every time they come on board.
Accountants
Save time on every client scheme. Reduce paperwork and risk while your clients get the best possible share scheme.
Lawyers
Give clients a digital home for their scheme. They can upload existing options or create new ones from your drafted templates.
Professional networks
Pass on real benefits to your members. Become a Vestd champion and we'll help them manage equity tax-efficiently.
VCs and investors
Protect your portfolio from EMI risk. Around half of all EMI schemes aren't compliant, so we'll run a compliance healthcheck across your holdings.

Why companies partner with Vestd
"I think it’s something every business should consider. How do you separate yourself from your competitors? How would you feel if your competitors had this product?"

Frequently asked questions
How much can I earn as a Vestd partner?
Your reward grows as you convert more deals, and it's calculated on the first year of your referred customer's subscription. Seed (2 converted deals) and Sprout (5) earn 10%, Scale (9) earns 15%, and Thrive (15+) earns 20%. You can take your reward as a commission, pass it on to your client as a discount, or donate it. You'll also unlock marketing benefits as you move up the tiers.
How long does approval take?
We aim to review applications within 7 days. Once you're in, complete the onboarding training and submit your first qualified deal to unlock entry to the programme.
Is there a cost to join the partner programme?
No, it's free to join.
What ongoing support will I get as a partner?
Yes. You choose on each lead. When you submit a lead, select whether you'd like a commission, a discount for your client, or a donation. There's nothing to change in advance, so you can pick a different option for each referral.
Can I switch how I'm rewarded after I've applied?
You'll get onboarding training and a welcome post on LinkedIn, and as you progress you'll get more visibility: mentions in our New Partners and Top Partners posts, a blog swap, a Vestd website badge and logo, social spotlights and a mention in our community newsletter. At the top tier there's a quarterly co-marketing plan, and we'll consider you for speaking slots and panels, and podcast invites on a case-by-case basis.
