Trade Referrals With Peer MSPs Without the Spreadsheet Tax

Who It's For

Built for MSPs who already trade work with peers and want to keep it balanced, tracked, and worth their while.

MSP Owners

Send work outside your stack, geography, or capacity to peer MSPs you trust — and capture the referrals they send back, without it living in your head.

Growth Leads

Run your peer network with the give-and-get rigor that a handshake-and-memory relationship always lacks.

Operations Leads

Replace the patchwork of spreadsheets and "remind me what we owe them" with one source of truth for the peer network.

Everything a Peer Referral Network Needs

From hand-off to payout, every step of the peer referral relationship runs in one place.

Peer Referral Agreements

Set clear terms with each peer MSP — what kind of work you send each other, how referrals are credited, and what a referral is worth. No more vague favors.

Referral Hand-offs

Hand off a project to a peer MSP and register the referral in one step, so credit, status, and follow-up are clear on both sides — and nothing falls through the cracks.

Reciprocity Ledger

Tracks what you send each peer versus what they send you, flags relationships that have gone one-sided, and nudges the next conversation — so the give-and-get stays balanced. A spreadsheet can't do this.

Recurring Commissions

Pay or earn commissions on referred contracts every month they renew. Clawbacks on churn, splits across peers, and a full audit trail — automatic.

Partner Portal

Self-serve dashboard for your peer MSPs: referral hand-offs, status, give/get balance, and commission statements. No more "where did that referral land?" email.

Network Reporting

Referral-sourced recurring revenue, give/get balance by peer, and time-to-first-referral. The numbers that tell you which peer relationships actually pull their weight.

How It Works

Go from informal favors to a balanced, tracked peer network in three steps.

Set the Terms

Define what kind of work each side refers, how referrals are credited, and the commission and reciprocity rules. Start from a template or from scratch.

Add Your Peer MSPs

Invite the peers you already trust, agree terms, and grant portal access — all in the same flow.

Run the Network

Hand off and receive referrals, get paid automatically, and watch the give/get balance and referral-sourced recurring revenue in real time.

Peer Referrals in the Wild

Out-of-Stack Projects

Hand off work you don't cover — a cloud migration, a security assessment, a vertical app rollout — to a peer MSP who does, and take a referral fee or a return referral in exchange.

Overflow & Capacity

When you're at capacity, refer the overflow to a trusted peer instead of turning it away — and get the first call when they're the ones overloaded.

Out-of-Area Clients

A client opens an office in a region you don't service. Refer it to a peer MSP who covers that area, keep the relationship intact, and earn on the referral.

Build Your Peer Network
