What Is the Autodesk Partner Program?
The Autodesk Partner Program runs on a New Transaction Model (agency model): Autodesk bills end customers directly and pays partners a commission, rather than a resale margin. Partner types include VAR/Solution Provider (tiered Reseller, Gold, Platinum), Service Provider and Referral Partner, with the partner acting as selling and managing agent without owning the invoice.
It matters because partner economics changed structurally for fiscal 2027 - commissions were rebalanced to favor new business over renewals - a real shift for renewal-heavy partners.
