# Partner Program

As a Funding Machine partner, you have a full-service funding team behind you. You source the clients, we handle everything else — credit analysis, lender applications, and disbursement. You earn on every funded deal.

## How It Works

<Steps>
  <Step title="You Submit Clients">
    Enter your client's details on the platform. We handle it from there.
  </Step>

  <Step title="We Process Everything">
    Our team pulls credit, builds a custom funding plan, and submits applications to lenders on your client's behalf.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Clients Get Funded">
    Once approved, lenders disburse funds directly. Average processing time: 3 business days.
  </Step>

  <Step title="You Earn">
    You receive an invoice based on your agreement rate. Track everything from your dashboard.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>You only pay when clients are funded. Declined or closed clients cost you nothing.</Info>

## Your Agreement Rate

Your agreement rate is the success fee percentage applied to each funded deal. It's set when you join the platform and determines your cost per deal.

**Example:** If your client is funded for $50,000 and your agreement rate is 10%, your invoice is $5,000.

To review or discuss your rate, contact your account manager. Rates can be adjusted based on volume and performance.

## Tracking Your Earnings

Stay on top of your business with these tools:

* **Dashboard** — See total funded amounts, approval rates, and pipeline health at a glance
* **Clients Page** — Every funded deal with amounts, types, and dates
* **Reports** — Detailed breakdowns by client, time period, and funding type
* **Invoices** — Each invoice shows the exact calculation (funded amount x rate)

<Tip>Review your dashboard weekly and your Clients page monthly. Weekly check-ins keep your pipeline moving; monthly reviews help you spot trends and set goals.</Tip>

## Growth Tiers

As your funded volume grows, you unlock better benefits:

| Tier        | Monthly Funded Volume          | Benefits                                                        |
| ----------- | ------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Starter** | Getting started                | Full platform access, dedicated account manager                 |
| **Growth**  | Consistent monthly submissions | Priority processing, rate review eligibility                    |
| **Pro**     | High-volume pipeline           | Fastest processing times, dedicated processor, enhanced support |
| **Elite**   | Top-performing partner         | Best available rates, strategic growth planning, VIP support    |

<Note>Tier progression is based on sustained performance, not one-time spikes. Your account manager will discuss tier advancement when you're ready.</Note>

## Tools Available to You

Every partner gets access to:

* **Full Platform Dashboard** — Real-time metrics, charts, and pipeline tracking
* **Client Management** — Submit, track, and manage unlimited clients
* **Credit Reports** — Tri-bureau credit analysis on every submission
* **Status Notifications** — Real-time alerts on every pipeline change
* **Account Manager** — A dedicated contact for questions, rate discussions, and strategy
* **Reports & Analytics** — Export data and track your business performance over time

## Maximizing Your Success

Here's what the top-performing partners do differently:

### Submit Quality Over Quantity

Focus on clients with 680+ credit scores for the highest approval rates. One funded client at \$50K is worth more than five declined clients.

### Respond Fast

When the processing team requests additional info, respond the same day. This is the single biggest factor in keeping the 3-day SLA on track.

### Build a Steady Pipeline

Submit consistently rather than in large batches. A steady flow of 5-10 clients per week is easier to process than 50 clients on a Monday.

### Pre-Screen Your Clients

Spend 2 minutes asking about credit score, recent inquiries, and late payments before submitting. This filters out clients who aren't ready and saves everyone time.

### Track and Adjust

Review your approval rate monthly. If it's below 60%, look at the score distribution of your submissions and adjust your sourcing.

<Warning>Don't submit clients without their explicit written consent for a credit pull. This is both a legal requirement and a platform policy. Unauthorized pulls can result in account suspension.</Warning>
