Built for partners who build for customers.
We work with consultancies, ISVs and accounting practices who help customers get more from their data. XLiQ provides a way to differentiate, win business, deliver, and earn — without changing how you already work.
The right partners, not the most.
The best outcomes come from partners who understand their customers’ businesses, genuinely care, and have the expertise to back it up. We work with a focused group of like-minded partners — we’re not for everyone.
We don’t compete with your services — you keep the customer relationship and trusted-advisor role; we bring the product, economics, and engineering.
Partners thrive when customers quickly buy into and use what they’ve built — and that’s where XLiQ fits in.
Three Ways to Partner
Find the partnership route for you
Consulting Partner
For Microsoft BI practices
You build robust data solutions for your customers using Power BI, Fabric and SSAS. You want strong, early customer adoption of the models you’ve built — with each success accelerating the next project.
XLiQ sits on the semantic models you build — respecting their security and surfacing them where finance actually works, directly in Excel. Because there’s no new tool to learn, adoption comes quickly — and the value lands with your customer, credited to you.
For you, that means stickier customers, easier expansion conversations, and a way to stand out from competitors still offering the same Power BI report build.
WHAT YOU GET
- Tiered Partner Fees on Marketplace transactions — as customers buy, expand and renew
- Six-month exclusivity on registered opportunities
- You retain 100% of your services revenue
- No customer billing, credit risk, or software contracts on your books
- Launch Partner status available for selected early partners (entry at higher tier)

OEM Partner
For ISVs and platform vendors
Your customers need more than basic reporting and planning — without it, they pull their data into other tools and your product becomes the plumbing, not the destination.
XLiQ is built to be embedded. The product can be white-labelled or co-branded, and integrated into your own platform as a native reporting capability. The commercials are bespoke per partner, designed around your scale, distribution and pricing model.
For ISVs in CPM, EPM, ERP, planning and accounting categories, embedding XLiQ is the fastest route to a class-leading Excel-native reporting and planning layer in your product — without the multi-year engineering investment of building it yourselves.
WHAT’S POSSIBLE
- Full white-label or co-branded deployment
- Native integration with your platform’s data model and authentication
- Commercial models tailored to your business: per-seat, per-tenant, or rev-share
- Rich reporting and planning, delivered fast — with low impact on engineering and roadmap
- Joint roadmap conversations on the capabilities that matter to your customers

Practice Partner
For cloud accounting practices
You’re a cloud accounting practice. Your clients need better reporting and planning than the platforms give them, and you want to deliver that without becoming a BI consultancy.
XLiQ connects directly to Xero and QuickBooks and surfaces reporting and planning in Excel, where your clients already work. For your practice, it’s a route into the advisory work clients increasingly want — forecasting, planning, management reporting — moving you beyond compliance and setting you apart from practices still offering the same basics.
If you run a Xero or QuickBooks practice and this fits your direction, talk to us now — early adopting practices will help shape the programme.
WHAT’S ON THE TABLE
- Margin on client subscriptions, structured to support practice economics
- Co-marketing and joint content as a founding practice
- Input into our product roadmap to ensure we build what matters to you and your clients
- A reporting and planning offer you can take to every client, on platforms you already use
- Practice discounts on XLiQ for internal use

Why partners choose XLiQ.
01 Microsoft Marketplace–first
All customer transactions flow through Microsoft. Your customers buy in clicks, draw down MACC, and avoid new vendor onboarding. You skip the receivables, the billing, the credit risk.
02 Services revenue stays with you We never take a cut of your implementation, training, or ongoing services work. Our Partner Fee comes from the software subscription, not from the engagement you wrap around it.
03 Recurring economics that build Partner Fees apply to new logos, expansion and renewals — for the lifetime of the customer’s subscription, as long as you stay actively engaged. The book compounds.
04 Deal registration with teeth Six months of exclusive engagement on confirmed registered opportunities. Clear conflict-resolution rules. No surprises on attribution.
05 You own the customer relationship The customer engages with you for advisory, implementation and ongoing support. We support the product behind the scenes. Your relationship, your renewal conversation, your expansion opportunity.
Let’s build something together.
