Your clients get the operating layer. You keep the relationship.
PowersportOS Studio is one way to use our platform: we build the store ourselves. The other way is via someone who already works with the client. If you're a Shopify agency, theme developer, or independent e-commerce builder serving the powersport space, you can bring PowersportOS to your clients without us getting in between.
How it works
The split is clean.
PowersportOS is the platform. You are the service. The customer gets a complete bundled product without either of us stepping on the other's toes.
Client subscribes to PowersportOS
The client pays us directly for the platform fee, the bundled Shopify theme, and all our backend infrastructure. Same pricing as anyone else, no hidden levers.
You build and manage the Shopify store
Setup, customisations, ongoing maintenance, marketing integrations, custom sections. Everything around the platform is yours. You bill the client for your time and your value-add directly. We don't take a cut.
We handle the platform
Catalog data, fitment quality, theme updates, app maintenance, customer-portal features, infrastructure, support for platform questions. You don't have to learn powersport-data ops. That's our job.
Why partner with us
Better outcomes for the same clients you're already serving.
Trade one-off setup for ongoing retainer
Powersport stores need constant catalog work. With PowersportOS handling the data layer, the work that remains is store care, which is exactly the engagement model agencies want anyway. Setup fees become smaller; recurring management contracts become defensible.
Fewer "the YMM widget is wrong" tickets
Fitment errors aren't your problem to fix; they're ours. The data lives on our side. Your support inbox stops being a queue of "why doesn't this part match my Outlander".
Ship a powersport store in days, not months
You don't have to build any of these: YMM widget, dealer map, catalog hierarchy, submodel-precise fitment. Theme is bundled. App is bundled. You spend project time on what's actually custom for the client.
Sell into a niche you couldn't service alone
Most agencies can't credibly pitch a powersport client because they don't know what a submodel is or why fitment matters. With PowersportOS in the proposal, you're now the agency that "gets" this segment. Wins you should be losing become wins you can take.
Who we look for
Builders who actually finish projects.
We're not picky about size. Solo freelancers and full agencies both fit. We do care that you've shipped real e-commerce work before, and that you're going to treat the client well after launch. Beyond that:
- Comfortable in Shopify Liquid + theme customisation. The bundled theme is a starting point, not a straitjacket.
- At least one delivered Shopify (or comparable) store you can point at as portfolio.
- Work with clients in powersport, motor, marine, agricultural, or adjacent verticals, or willing to learn fast.
- Honest about scope and timelines with your clients. We will not refer to partners who overpromise.
What you get from us
Real benefits without contractual lock-in.
Direct support channel
Dedicated email + Slack or Discord channel for partner builds. Real engineering, not first-line support. Architecture questions, edge cases, theme-modification advice.
Demo tenant access
A sandbox tenant you can log into to show prospective clients what the customer portal looks like before they sign anything. Pre-filled with realistic powersport data.
Roadmap visibility
Heads-up on features in flight so you can plan client projects against what's shipping next. Early signals on schema changes that might affect your custom integrations.
"PowersportOS Partner" badge
Use it on your site, in pitches, in proposals. Signals to powersport prospects that you have credible platform infrastructure behind you. We'll feature partner builds in case studies as they ship.
Become a partner
Tell us about your shop.
Quick form. We read every submission ourselves. If we think we're a good fit we'll come back within a couple of business days to set up a call, share access to the partner channel, and answer whatever you need to know.
Or email info@powersportos.com directly if a form is not your thing.
Once you're a partner with a couple of clients actively running on PowersportOS, there's room to discuss formal co-marketing, joint case studies, and arrangements that reward partners who bring sustained volume. That's a conversation we have one-to-one, not a published policy.
