Salesforce Partner Program Policies August 262021
Policies
The Consulting Partner Program Policies are listed first, followed
by the AppExchange Partner Program Policies. Partner must be
enrolled in the relevant Salesforce Partner Program for that
Program’s Policies to apply.
These Consulting Partner Program Policies (“Policies”) are current as of the version date set forth above and will remain in
effect until or unless they are superseded at this same (or redirected) URL by a version with a later version date. SFDC may
update or modify these Policies in its sole discretion, with or without notice. These Policies are subject to and made part of the
Salesforce Partner Program Agreement (“SPPA”) at http://p.force.com/SPPA, which an entity must accept in order to
participate as a Partner in the Consulting Partner Program (the “Program”). Partner Affiliates may hold themselves out as
Partners of SFDC with respect to the Consulting Partner Program, only for the purposes of the Consulting Partner Program,
subject to the terms of the SPPA, including Partner’s obligations in Section 1.3 (“Partner Affiliates”) of the SPPA. Capitalized
terms not defined in these Policies have the meaning given to them in the SPPA. Exceptions to this policy may exist with
respect to Partners based in Japan.
If the Provisional Partner meets these qualifications within six (6) months of receipt of the applicable email, such Provisional
Partner will be admitted to the Program on a non-provisional basis and will be assigned a partnership tier level (“Tier”) as
discussed below. If a Provisional Partner fails to meet the qualifications within six (6) months of receipt of the email, it will
not be admitted to the Program and will be removed from the Partner Community without any refund of fees, however it may
reapply after meeting the qualifications. If it reapplies within the same SFDC fiscal year (February 1 – January 31) (“SFDC
Fiscal Year”) the amount of fees paid previously for such SFDC Fiscal Year will count towards any additional fees incurred
for such same SFDC Fiscal Year application. No such credit will apply to subsequent SFDC Fiscal Years. Any exception to
the Program requirements will be subject to approval and management by SFDC’s COO of Industries, Innovation and Partners.
SFDC reserves the right to accept or deny any application to the Program, deny any request for access to the Partner
Community, or end any Partner’s participation in the Program.
As of the version date of these Policies, Mature Markets are the following regions, which are subject to change by SFDC:
Australia, Brazil, Canada, Israel, the United States and certain countries in Europe, including, Austria, Belgium, Denmark,
Finland, France, Germany, Greenland, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Netherlands, Antilles, Norway,
Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland and the United Kingdom. For more information, Partner may submit a case via the
Partner Community. Note that certain Mature Markets are not eligible for referral payments, as further detailed in the Referral
Fees section below.
As of the version date of these Policies, Growth Markets are the following regions, which are subject to change by SFDC: all
countries in Africa, Asia Pacific (excluding those countries listed as a Mature Market above), the Commonwealth of
Independent States, and Europe (excluding those countries listed as a Mature Market above), the Middle East (except Israel),
Latin America (excluding those countries listed as a Mature Market above), New Zealand, Russia. For more information,
Partner may submit a case via the Partner Community.
For clarity, Consolidated Partners are not required to consolidate Partner Business Orgs (PBO) or Channel Order Apps (COA).
Please see this Knowledge Article for information regarding considerations related to PBO or COA consolidation.
Compliance
At all times during its participation in the Program, Partner must comply with all applicable anti-corruption laws. If SFDC
reasonably suspects Partner has breached such obligation, SFDC may inspect and copy Partner’s books, records, and accounts
and interview relevant Partner personnel. Partner agrees that SFDC may request verification that Partner, Partner’s sales
representatives, and anyone engaged by Partner to perform work in connection with the Partner Program has undertaken
compliance training and compliance certifications that align to Partner’s compliance obligations under the SPPA and these
Policies.
Training
Partner agrees that to the extent it is engaged in marketing, submitting referrals to SFDC (as discussed in the appendix hereto),
or otherwise reselling the Services, Partner’s sales representatives and other personnel will use reasonable efforts to participate
in the basic online training offered for free by SFDC to SFDC’s users generally. As SFDC upgrades the Services, SFDC may
ask Partner’s sales representatives and other personnel to undergo further training based on SFDC Services’ new features and
functions, and Partner and Partner’s personnel agree to make reasonable, good faith efforts to participate in such further training.
Partner agrees to use reasonable efforts to advise SFDC of any demonstrations required to market the Services to prospective
SFDC customers, especially those with a sales force or customer service group of greater than twenty (20) people. To the extent
Partner is eligible to receive certain technical support offerings, such programs are provided under SFDC’s technical support
policies in effect at the time the Services are provided. For clarification, technical support does not include support for Non-
SFDC Applications or other third party programs or services. SFDC’s technical support policies are subject to change at
SFDC’s discretion.
AppExchange
Subject to its inclusion as a program benefit in Partner’s assigned Tier, and solely for so long as Partner remains a Partner
assigned to such Tier, and subject to the terms of the SPPA (including the AppExchange Addendum thereto) and these Policies,
Partner may be entitled to the AppExchange Listing Program Benefit allowing Partner to market products or services on the
AppExchange. If Partner is not entitled to, or is not utilizing the AppExchange Listing Program Benefit, the AppExchange
Addendum will not apply to Partner.
Services Subscriptions
Subject to its inclusion as a program benefit in Partner’s assigned Tier, and solely for so long as Partner remains a Partner
assigned to such Tier, and subject to the terms of the SPPA and these Policies, SFDC may provide Partner with log-in
credentials to one or more Services, and thereby grant Partner a non-exclusive, non-transferable limited right to access and use
such Services solely for: (i) demonstration of the Services to potential SFDC customers solely in connection with Partner’s
participation in the Program, or (ii) training on the use of the Services. Partner’s use of any Services subscriptions is further
subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 5 of the SPPA and, to the extent such subscriptions have been ordered by Partner
from SFDC pursuant to an order form, any restrictions set forth in such order form. For clarity, Partner may be, or may become
entitled to, receive access to the Services under a separate agreement with SFDC. The SPPA and these Policies will govern
Partner’s access to the Services to the extent subscriptions to Services are provided as a benefit of the Program.
Referrals
A Partner in the Consulting Partner Program, including, until further notice, a Consulting Partner that is also a Salesforce
authorized reseller, may be eligible to receive a referral fee if it submits a referral to Salesforce’s direct sales organization
through the Partner Community and that referral meets the requirements described in this Addendum, is approved by SFDC or
an SFDC Affiliate, and is converted into an SFDC or SFDC Affiliate sale opportunity that successfully closes within six (6)
months after the date the referral is submitted. Referral fee payments may be made by SFDC or an SFDC Affiliate, in SFDC’s
discretion. For clarity, SFDC or its Affiliate shall only make payment to the Partner entity that SFDC has accepted into the
Consulting Partner Program; SFDC or its Affiliate will not make payment to Affiliates of Partner, other third parties, or related
entities. In the case of a Consolidated Partner, payment shall be made to the Designated Entity. As used in this Addendum 1,
a sale opportunity may be a direct sale opportunity between SFDC or its Affiliate and a customer or an indirect sale opportunity
between SFDC or its Affiliate and an authorized Salesforce reseller partner for an end-customer. If the sale opportunity is an
indirect sale opportunity, then (i) references to order forms in this Addendum 1 refer to the order form between SFDC or its
Affiliate and the authorized Salesforce reseller partner, and (ii) references to the referred customer in this order form mean the
Salesforce reseller partner’s end-customer.
Sourced Referral
A sourced opportunity is when a Partner introduces a prospect new to Salesforce and its Affiliates, or a new product
opportunity to an existing customer of Salesforce or its Affiliates. To be eligible for sourced credit, partners are required to
submit a referral lead in the Partner Community that converts into a new business opportunity. To be considered a sourced
referral the referral lead must be submitted within 30 days of a new business opportunity creation date, and before the
opportunity close date.
Joint Referral
Joint Sales Credit is recognized when a Partner demonstrates meaningful selling engagement activity supporting the Salesforce
Account Executive (AE) in the sales cycle or brings add-on subscriptions for existing customers. Partner is either brought in
by a Salesforce AE or has existing relationships with the customer. Meaningful selling engagement means the Partner owns
50% of the sales engagement and is involved in delivering pre-sales activities that influence the deal to close. Being selected
as the Implementation Services Partner does not constitute meaningful sales engagement. Salesforce AE’s own the partner
assignment on the opportunity, if the assignment isn’t showing in your Partner Community Business Console, speak to your
AE.
Ineligible Products
Certain products will be ineligible for referral fees, and will be marked as such in the Partner Community submission process
and/or will be inaccessible to Partner when submitting a referral. For clarity, Mulesoft and Tableau are both products that are
ineligible for referral fees as of the Version Date of these Policies.
Maximum Fee
Except with respect to Referral Type “Slack” below, the maximum referral fee SFDC or its Affiliate will pay to Partner with
respect to an opportunity that results in a closed opportunity is $10,000 per Mature Market opportunity and $100,000 per

warrants that it has provided all appropriate notices to data subjects and obtained all appropriate consents to transfer data to
SFDC and allow its processing according to the terms of the SPPA and these Policies. Partner authorizes SFDC to process such
data as reasonably required to exercise SFDC’s rights and perform SFDC’s obligations under the SPPA and these Policies;
Partner acknowledges that SFDC may be required to provide personally identifiable information to third parties to comply with
legally mandated reporting, disclosure, or other legal process requirements.
These Program Policies for AppExchange Partners are current as of the version date set forth above and shall remain in effect
until or unless they are superseded at this same (or redirected) URL by a version with a later version date. Salesforce (“SFDC”)
may update or modify these Program Policies in its sole discretion, with or without notice to Partners. These Policies are subject
to and made part of the Salesforce Partner Program Agreement (“SPPA”) at http://p.force.com/SPPA which an entity must
accept in order to participate in the AppExchange Partner Program (the “Program”). Partner must comply with these Program
Policies, as well as the SPPA, in order to participate in the AppExchange Partner Program. Capitalized terms not defined in
these Program Policies have the meaning given to them in the SPPA.
● Completion of all required SFDC legal due diligence processes, provided it results in approval by SFDC
● Participation in one of the AppExchange Partner Categories described in these Program Policies
● Approval of the Partner’s application(s) through SFDC’s Security Review and Assessment (SFDC may, in its sole
discretion, give Partners access to certain Partner Program Benefits prior to the Partner’s application(s) receiving this
approval)
If at any time a Partner fails to meet the Participation Criteria for the AppExchange Partner Program or its assigned
AppExchange Partner Program Designation, SFDC may, in its sole discretion, re-assign the Partner to a different AppExchange
Partner Category and/or AppExchange Partner Program Designation, or terminate the Partner’s participation in the
AppExchange Partner Program altogether. SFDC reserves the right to accept or deny any application to the AppExchange
Partner Program, deny any request for access to the Partner Community, or end any Partner’s participation in the AppExchange
Partner Program.
During its participation in the Program, the Partner will be evaluated each quarter, based on the SFDC Fiscal Year, and may
be reassigned to a different Tier based on its AppExchange Partner Trailblazer Score as described on the Overview page
p.force.com/s/education/appinnovators/AppExchange_Partner_Prgram.
Evaluations will be conducted during the first month following the end of an SFDC fiscal quarter, and any resulting
reassignment will be effective no later than the first day of the following month, as set forth below. SFDC will notify each
Partner of its new Tier on or before the effective date thereof. Partners who do not remain in compliance with the qualifications
of the Program may be removed from the Program and the Partner Community without any refund of fees. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Partners who are promoted to a higher Tier during an SFDC Fiscal Year will maintain the highest Tier earned
during such SFDC Fiscal Year for the remainder of the then current fiscal year and the entire next SFDC Fiscal Year, after
which Partners will be reevaluated.
Partner may make a written request to consolidate its account with the account of some or all of its Affiliates that are also
Partners of SFDC, so that such Partner and such Affiliates may be treated on a consolidated basis for the purpose of the Program
Components described below. To initiate such a request, Partner should open a case in the Partner Community and provide
evidence of each such Affiliates’ consent to the applicable consolidation in the form requested by SFDC. Upon approval and
completion of the request, the following Program components will be managed on a consolidated basis for the requesting
Partner (the “Designated Entity”) and its applicable Affiliates (together, a “Consolidated Partner”) as set forth below:

Qualifications including the Partner Program Designation, specific AppExchange Partner Program Benefits, and other

Partner’s use of any Services subscriptions is further subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 5 of the SPPA and, to the
extent such subscriptions have been ordered by Partner from SFDC pursuant to an Order Form, any restrictions set forth in
such Order Form. For clarity, Partner may be, or may become entitled to, receive access to the Services under a separate
agreement with SFDC. The SPPA and these Program Policies shall govern Partner’s access to the Services to the extent
subscriptions to Services are provided as a Program Benefit.
Marketing Services
If applicable to Partner’s assigned Program Type and Partner Designation, SFDC grants Partner a non-exclusive,
nontransferable, limited license to use those portions of SFDC’s marketing programs, marketing materials and tools, as further
described herein (“Marketing Services”) solely for the purpose of creating, executing, and monitoring marketing campaigns
related to SFDC’s products and services. Partner’s use of the Marketing Services shall be subject to the SPPA (including the
online Salesforce Partner Marketing Reimbursement Agreement referenced therein (the “SPMRA”)), to the extent applicable,
and these Program Policies and must comply with SFDC’s current branding guidelines, including SFDC’s Trademark Usage
Guidelines (available at SFDC’s main website) and SFDC’s Partner Branding and Logo Usage Guidelines and Partner Press
Release Guidelines (both available through the Partner Community). SFDC may change the usage, branding and press release
guidelines and location thereof at any time, and, upon reasonable notice from SFDC, Partner shall promptly modify Partner’s
use of the Marketing Services to conform to any such changed guidelines. Partner may allow third parties to access the
Marketing Services for the purpose of creating, executing, and monitoring marketing campaigns related to SFDC’s products
and services on Partner’s behalf, provided that Partner ensures that all such use is in accordance with the SPPA, the SPMRA,
and these Program Policies. Partner agrees to be responsible for any misuse of the Marketing Services by Partner or any third
party using the Marketing Services on Partner’s behalf and Partner agrees to use the Marketing Services at Partner’s own risk.
Partner shall cooperate with SFDC to allow for review of Partner’s use of the Marketing Services and compliance with SFDC’s
quality standards. If SFDC, in SFDC’s sole discretion, determines that Partner’s use of the Marketing Services does not comply
with the SPPA, the SPMRA, these Program Policies or SFDC’s branding guidelines, Partner shall promptly modify or
discontinue Partner’s use as directed by SFDC. In the event that Marketing Services include payments to Partner, then Partner
shall maintain adequate books and records regarding the basis for such payments and shall provide SFDC with copies of such
records upon request.
Additional Tools
