Partner Programme
Margin on every licence, and the engineer’s phone number.
If you specify and commission control systems for other people’s plants, you can resell Raylux at a discount and keep the difference. Five tiers from Bronze to Diamond, one application form, and the engineering team on the other end of it. No annual fee, no joining cost, no training you have to buy. You move up on what you sell, and the thresholds are published.

Five tiers
Everyone starts at Bronze. You move up on annual sales volume, measured at our list price before your discount. Certification is only asked for from Gold upward.
| Tier | Annual volume | Certified engineers | What it adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze | On approval | — | Base discount, partner portal, direct support, one lab licence. |
| Silver | $15,000 | — | A better rate, pre-release builds, a second lab licence. |
| Gold | $45,000 | 1 | Better again, support ahead of the queue, three lab licences, inbound referrals. |
| Platinum | $100,000 | 3 | Unlimited lab licences, input on what gets built next. |
| Diamond | $175,000 | 5 | The best standard rate, a better rate again on Edge, loaners for customer trials, a named contact, first refusal on referrals in your region. |
The full tier breakdown has what each rung adds and how tiers move. Volume counts at list price, before your discount: sell $50,000 of licences and $50,000 is what counts, whatever your discount took off the invoice. A slow year does not cost you a tier; it steps down only after two consecutive years below, with warning after the first. The actual percentages are quoted in your approval email and shown on your dashboard rather than published here.
What a partner gets
Margin you keep
You buy licences at your tier’s discount and sell at whatever you sell at. You buy below the published list price, so the list price is your ceiling and you never have to undercut it. Raylux does not sell direct into an account you brought, and does not run a channel-conflict policy because there is no channel to conflict with.
The partner portal
Signed-in access to your tier, your rate, your licences, and builds as they are cut. It is behind a real login, and adding you to it is a deliberate act performed by the team, which is why approval is not instant.
Support from the engineers
There is no tier-one queue to escalate out of. When a driver misbehaves against a PLC you have in front of you, you are talking to the team that can change the driver.
Licences issued by hand
Raylux licences are signed with a key that has never been on the internet, so there is no self-serve activation button and there is not going to be one. Requests are turned around quickly; they are not turned around automatically. We would rather say that than hide it behind a button that quietly opens a ticket.
Who this is for, and who it is not
Worth reading before you spend ten minutes on the form.
| A good fit | Why |
|---|---|
| System integrators | You commission control systems for other people’s plants |
| Machine builders and OEMs | You ship equipment with an HMI on it |
| Panel shops | You build and program the panel, not just wire it |
| Independent controls engineers | One person is a perfectly good partner |
| Not a fit | Why |
|---|---|
| Buying for your own plant | You want pricing, not a reseller margin |
| Pure resale, no engineering | The margin pays for commissioning work, not for forwarding an order |
| Lead-generation agencies | Referrals are welcome; a partner tier is not the mechanism |
| “Exclusive distributor for X” | There is no territory exclusivity and there will not be |
How the application is handled
The team reads it
There is no scoring model and no filter. Every application is read by the team that builds Raylux, which is why it takes a few days rather than a few seconds, and why a two-person shop with good work is not sorted below a large firm with a good letterhead.
You get an answer either way
Approved, you get an email with your tier, your margin, and a link to the portal you can now sign into. Declined, you get an email saying so and why. It is usually “not yet” rather than “no”, and it tells you what would change the answer.
Nothing is automated
Submitting this form does not create an account, does not grant access to anything, and does not sign you up to a mailing list. It puts your details in front of the team.
What we do with it
Your details are stored to review the application and to contact you about it, and are not sold, shared, or used for marketing. The full terms are in the privacy policy. Ask and it will be deleted.
Apply
Seven fields. The last two are the ones that decide it, so they are worth a couple of sentences each rather than a couple of words.
Questions people ask first
Is there a fee?
No. No joining fee, no annual fee, and the certification is free to sit. Volume moves you up the tiers, but there is no minimum you must hit to stay in the programme. Bronze has no threshold at all.
How long does approval take?
Days, not minutes. The team reads applications between building the product.
Do I have to be a company?
No. Independent controls engineers are welcome; put your own name as the company.
Is the programme real?
Yes. Raylux is at version 2026.20 and running against real PLCs today, the margins are real, and the tiers are the ones on this page. If you are specifying for next quarter, say so in the form and you will get a straight answer about fit before you commit to anything.
Can I get territory exclusivity?
No, and asking will not change it. Diamond gets first refusal on referrals in its region, which is not the same thing. Every partner still competes on the work.
I already applied. Can I update it?
Submit the form again with the same address: it replaces your application rather than creating a second one.
How is volume counted?
At Raylux list price, before your discount, over a rolling year from the day you are approved. Buying $50,000 of licences counts as the full $50,000, even though your discount means you paid less than that. Your dashboard shows the running total and the gap to the next tier.
