Partner programme
Sell online stores as your own product
Agencies, web studios and distributors run entire ecommerce platforms on HOD Media without our name appearing anywhere. You bring the brand, the domain and the customers. We run the platform underneath and charge you wholesale.
Founding partners: the first 10 join with no monthly platform fee, ever — 7 places left.
What it costs you
Two charges, and they are for different things. Everything comes out of your prepaid wallet — there is no invoice to chase and no revenue share.
1 · Platform fee
₹0/month ₹799
For running a platform of your own — whether you have one store or fifty.
- Your own domain, with SSL for every store on it
- Your brand on every screen your customers see
- Your partner portal and their merchant dashboards
- Every new feature we ship, the day we ship it
Founding partners never pay this — not for the first year, not after. 7 places left.
2 · Per store you sell
₹299/store/month
or ₹2,499/store/year — you save ₹1,089 a store
Charged when you launch a store and again when it renews. Nothing for stores you have not sold.
- The complete store — products, orders, checkout, themes
- COD and online payments on their own gateway keys
- GST invoicing, discounts, delivery charges
- WhatsApp and email automation included
You decide what to charge your customer for it. Their money goes to your gateway; we never see it.
A worked example. You sell a store at ₹599/month. It costs you ₹299, so you keep ₹300 a month from that customer. Ten stores is ₹3,000 a month, with no platform fee to come out of it.
How to get started
Most partners are live within a day. The slow part is DNS, and that is out of everyone's hands.
- 1
Apply and get your portal
2 minutesTell us your brand name and email. You get access to your partner portal straight away — no sales call, no contract to sign first.
- 2
Connect your WhatsApp and email
30–60 minutesYour customers' shoppers get login codes and order updates from YOUR WhatsApp Business number and YOUR email domain — never ours. You connect both in the portal and we send a real test message to prove they work. This is required before your first store can go live, because there is no fallback to our accounts.
- 3
Point your domain at us
10 minutes, plus DNS timeAdd two A records — @ and * — and we issue one wildcard SSL certificate that covers your landing page, your merchants' dashboards, the tracking page and every storefront you will ever launch. If your DNS is on Cloudflare it renews itself forever.

Set your prices and top up
10 minutesCreate the packages you want to sell — 1, 3, 6 or 12 months, at whatever price you choose. The portal shows your margin on each one as you type it. Add money to your wallet; that is what store launches are charged against.
- 5
Sell
ongoingSend customers to your own pricing page and they buy on your payment gateway, or launch stores for them yourself from the portal. Either way the store is live immediately and the wholesale cost comes off your wallet.
Your domain, your brand
Point your own domain at us and your whole platform lives there: your pricing page, your customers' dashboards, and every storefront you launch. Your customers never see our name.
Your WhatsApp, your email
Login codes and order updates leave from your own WhatsApp Business number and your own sending domain. We are not in that path at all — which is why you connect both before your first store goes live.
Prepaid wallet, wholesale price
Top up a wallet with us. Every store you launch or renew costs you a fixed wholesale price per month. What you charge your customer is entirely yours — you set the packages and collect on your own payment gateway.
The whole product, on day one
Storefronts and themes, products and inventory, orders and fulfilment, COD and online payments, GST invoicing, discounts, custom domains, WhatsApp and email automation. Everything we ship reaches your fleet the same day.
How the money works
You prepay a wallet. Launching a store for a customer debits a wholesale price per month of the term — so a twelve-month package costs you twelve months of wholesale. You decide what to charge them for it, and their money goes straight to your own payment gateway. We never touch it and never invoice them.
Renewals are allowed to run your balance negative rather than pausing a store whose owner has already paid you. New launches are not — those need funds.

Takes a minute. You get portal access straight away — connecting your gateways and funding the wallet comes next.
