ERP Reseller Agreements: Key Clauses to Include (Complete Guide 2026)

Many ERP partners focus only on upfront commission. They ignore renewal terms. This limits long-term growth.

Another mistake is no protection for customer ownership. If the vendor takes over accounts, the partner loses future income.

Include pricing schedule, minimum margin, renewal commission, SLA scope, and dispute resolution process.

Add exit clause protection. Ensure you continue earning from customers you acquired.
