What is the T3Planet Partner Program?

The T3Planet Partner Program is an annual partnership program for TYPO3 agencies, freelancers, and IT firms using T3Planet products in client projects.

TYPO3 agencies, freelancers, and IT firms can apply for Silver, Gold, or Platinum tiers. TYPO3 hosting providers, SaaS vendors, managed service providers, and ecosystem companies can apply through the Technology Partner Track.

Partner tiers are calculated by annual T3Planet product subscription spend at list price.

Partners receive 10% to 20% off T3Planet product subscriptions depending on their tier.

Silver partners receive standard support, Gold partners receive a 1-business-day support SLA, and Platinum partners receive same-day support response.

Freelancers can join if they regularly use T3Planet products in TYPO3 projects and meet the spend threshold for their selected tier.

The partnership runs for one partner year. A new discount coupon is issued at each anniversary.

Tier changes are handled at renewal. From Year 2 onward, T3Planet verifies the tier at the anniversary date using billing records and deployment information.

Why Join the T3Planet Partner Program?

The T3Planet Partner Program is built for TYPO3 agencies, freelancers, and IT firms that already use T3Planet products in real client work. It turns an existing product relationship into a formal partner status with practical commercial, visibility, and support benefits.

The program helps solve common agency problems:

• Recurring product costs: Subscription discounts help reduce ongoing product expenses.
• Client trust: Official partner badges help agencies show a verified relationship with T3Planet.
• Discoverability: The Partner Directory gives agencies another way to be found by TYPO3 buyers.
• Support access: Gold and Platinum partners receive faster response commitments for client-sensitive work.
• Simplicity: There are no points, campaign targets, or complicated partner mechanics.

This makes the program useful for:

• TYPO3 agencies managing ongoing maintenance retainers.
• TYPO3-only agencies that use T3Planet products across many projects.
• Multi-CMS agencies standardizing part of their TYPO3 delivery stack on T3Planet.
• Freelancers who regularly deliver TYPO3 websites with T3Planet products.
• IT firms that want official recognition for their T3Planet product use.

For TYPO3 teams already relying on T3Planet products, joining the Partner Program is a way to make that relationship official, visible, and more valuable.

T3Planet Partner Directory: How Partners Get Found

Visitors can filter partners by:

• Tier

For example, a TYPO3 client in Germany could filter for Platinum, Germany, and 
e-commerce to find an agency that matches their project needs.

Directory Visibility by Tier

  • Basic listing
  • Company name
  • Country or region
  • Specialisation tags
• Gold partners

  • Enhanced listing details
  • Company name
  • Country or region
