How it works

From introduction to payout.

  1. 1

    Submit a referral

    Introduce an ISV that fits the profile, with an authorized contact who has agreed to the introduction.

  2. 2

    We review & accept

    We confirm acceptance in writing — typically within five business days — and start your protection window.

  3. 3

    Warm introduction

    You make a good-faith, two-way introduction within ten business days and join the first meeting where you can.

  4. 4

    We run the engagement

    OBP owns discovery, proposal, contracting, and delivery — and keeps you posted at every material stage.

  5. 5

    You get paid

    Earn 30–50% (your current tier) of what we collect for eligible services for twelve months, paid quarterly.
