What Is Compliance (Partner Program)?
In a partner program, compliance is the state of meeting all of a vendor's ongoing requirements - certified-staff counts, accreditations, revenue thresholds and program rules - so a partner keeps the tier it holds. Because tier, pricing and rebate eligibility all rest on these requirements, staying compliant is what keeps a partner's earnings intact.
Why it matters to IT channel partners. Compliance is continuous, not one-time. Requirements renew and expire, and a partner can drift out of compliance without any visible event - until a payment or quote comes in lower because a tier was lost. Tracking every requirement across every vendor, against its deadlines, is how a partner stays compliant and keeps the money its tier carries. Rebates-On makes that status visible.
