You build the sites.
Keep the hosting revenue.
A partner programme for South African designers and agencies. Up to 30% off list price, or up to 20% recurring commission — plus priority support, free migrations and client work sent your way.
- Free to join — no membership fee at any tier
- Earn every month the client stays, not once on signup
- We migrate the sites you already manage, at no charge
On everything you buy for a client — hosting, domains and email
Two ways to earn. Your choice.
The question every designer asks first is not what do I earn — it is who owns the client. So we let you decide, per client, and you can run both at once.
Buy at your partner discount — 10% to 30% off list, depending on your tier — and charge the client whatever you charge. The difference is your margin, every month, for as long as they stay.
- You own the invoice and the relationship
- Set your own price and billing cycle
- One consolidated bill from us
Send them a referral link. They pay us directly and you take commission — 10% to 20% depending on your tier, paid out monthly for as long as your tier allows.
- No invoicing, no chasing payment
- No first-line support load on you
- Tracked automatically in your dashboard
Three tiers, none of them paid
Your tier is set by the client revenue you bring — your own account plus every client account you manage — over a rolling 12 months. Bring existing clients and you start higher.

How it works
From application to your first payout, without a sales call you did not ask for.
Apply
Tell us about your studio and send a link to your work. We review every application by hand and reply within two working days.
Get your tier
We look at the client sites you already run and start you at the tier that matches — you do not have to earn your way up from zero.
Move your clients
We migrate existing sites for you at no charge. Nothing goes down, and you decide whether we bill the client or you do.
Get paid every month
Keep the margin on what you rebill, or take commission on referrals. Payouts run monthly from your InslyHost dashboard.
Built around how designers actually work
You are the one the client phones when the site is down. The programme is built on that.
You earn for as long as the client stays, not a single bounty on the first invoice. Retention pays you, so we both want the client to stay.
Hosting, domains, email and SSL for all your clients under one login — instead of chasing eight different control panel passwords.
Bring the sites you already manage. We move them for you, keep the email flowing and handle the DNS cutover out of hours.
Certified and Elite partners skip the standard queue. You are the one the client phones, so you get answers before they do.
Enquiries we cannot take on — or that suit a specialist better — go to partners in the directory, matched on skills and location.
Rebill under your own name, or go fully white-label with a reseller plan and private nameservers. The client never has to see us.
Want to run hosting entirely under your own brand, with your own nameservers and billing system? Reseller hosting does that — and Elite partners get a plan included.
