Pick the model that fits how you sell
Referral partner
Send us the lead and we take it from there: quote, install, billing and support. You are paid on every closed deal, with nothing to service afterwards.
Reseller or independent agent
Sell TDS services to your own clients and earn recurring commission on each successful monthly payment. TDS handles onboarding, billing and technical support.
White-label provider
Run the TDS platform under your own brand. Hardware, programming, delivery and technical support stay with TDS; the customer relationship stays with you.
Paid on what you sell, every month it renews
Recurring services pay a percentage of each successful customer payment for as long as the customer stays. Hardware and upfront purchases pay once, at sale, at a rate negotiated per deal. Exact rates and payment timing are set in the partner agreement.
- Recurring commission on Hosted VoIP, Teams calling and bundled services
- One-time commission on phones, adapters and upfront purchases
- Statements and payments monthly
- No cap on the number of customers you bring
| Service | Commission rate |

Before you apply
How and when am I paid?
Recurring commission is calculated on each successful customer payment and paid monthly with a statement. One-time commission on hardware and upfront purchases is paid after the sale closes.
Do I have to support the customer?
No. TDS handles installation, porting, programming, billing and the helpdesk. Referral partners hand off at the lead; resellers and agents stay the relationship owner while TDS does the work.
Can I sell under my own brand?
Yes. The white-label track puts the TDS platform under your name, with TDS hardware, programming, delivery and technical support behind it.
Is there a cost to join?
No fee to join. Apply below, a TDS rep calls to walk through the program, and the partner agreement sets your rates and terms.
