The platform fee, payouts and limits a new organization starts with, where your own terms show, and the API that returns the current figures.

In the dashboard

The reseller program lets you start a hosting brand of your own: you create an organization, set up products at your prices and sell them to customers of your own. This page sets out the terms a new organization starts with and where to read the figures that apply today. How organizations work explains the parts of an organization.

Creating an organization costs nothing. Create an organization takes you through it.

What a new organization starts with

Section titled What a new organization starts with
Platform fee
A percentage of what Coritan's payment gateways collect for you, after refunds and chargebacks. Coritan keeps it from each payout. Coritan takes no fee from money your own PayNow store takes, because that money never passes through Coritan.
Payouts
Once a month, in US dollars, for the money Coritan's gateways collected for you. Coritan pays any amount above zero, so there is no smallest payout. Track your payouts explains how each payout is worked out.
Limits
A number of customers, customer services and products of your own. When your organization reaches one, the API refuses the next customer, service or product with 403.
Your margin
The resource behind a linked product runs on your Coritan account at Coritan's price. Your margin is the difference between your price and Coritan's.

Terms agreed with one organization

Section titled Terms agreed with one organization

Coritan's staff can agree a different platform fee or higher limits with one organization. The organization's own dashboard shows the terms that apply to it: its header shows the platform fee, and the Plan limits card on its Overview tab shows its limits.

To ask for higher limits, send the form at the end of the partners page, or write to sales@coritan.com.

Read the current terms from the API

Section titled Read the current terms from the API

GET /api/v1/partners/terms returns the terms a new organization starts with. It needs no sign-in, and a shared cache may keep an answer for up to a minute.

curl https://api.coritan.com/api/v1/partners/terms

The answer looks like this:

JSON
{
  "platform_fee_percent": 10.0,
  "payout_schedule": "monthly",
  "payout_minimum": null,
  "currency": "USD",
  "limits": {"customers": 100, "services": 500, "products": 50}
}
Field What it holds
platform_fee_percent The platform fee, as a percentage of what the gateways collect after refunds and chargebacks.
payout_schedule monthly while Coritan pays organizations every month. null when no monthly payout run is scheduled.
payout_minimum The smallest amount Coritan pays out. null today, because Coritan pays any amount above zero.
currency The currency of payouts and of any amount in the answer.
limits.customers How many customers a new organization can have.
limits.services How many customer services a new organization can have in total.
limits.products How many products of its own a new organization can have.

Any figure can be null, which means Coritan holds no value for it. Leave that figure out of what you show your readers.
