TL;DR: Join Gadget’s agency partner program to get pair programming, early access to features, educational support and resources, and 20% commission from every client referral.
As we come to the end of launch week, we’re excited to share one final announcement. Today, we’re introducing a new agency partner program for agencies and teams building apps for clients using Gadget.
Building custom solutions for merchants, though rewarding, can be tedious. Anyone who works with Shopify merchants can tell you about how repetitive all the setup is, but keeping a suite of custom apps up to date with the latest API versions (4 times a year!) can be a time-consuming process. It’s a never-ending battle of trying to keep up with the latest trends, stay on top of all your projects, build and nurture client relationships, and maintain your existing projects.
We’re here to help.
Out of the box, Gadget gives you everything you need to build and ship projects without all the busywork. With our agency partner program, we’re taking that one step further.
For the past few months, we’ve been consulting with a number of Shopify agencies and Partners to better understand their needs, and built a program that reflects that. We’re excited to implement new support channels and resources to help you, because when you grow, so do we.
When it comes to custom solutions, many merchants want to retain ownership of their data. With Gadget, teams are able to build out a completely custom product, and then hand off the ownership to the client at the end of the day. For every client your agency refers to Gadget, we’re offering a 20% commission on the monthly plan. We’ll provide one-click migrations for the latest API upgrades, and our auto-scaled infrastructure will keep the ongoing maintenance minimal. Everybody wins.
By partnering with Gadget, we’ve been able to essentially automate the way we learn, which has allowed us to build and ship projects for clients at least 3 times faster than before.

Sometimes, you need a hand getting started. The agency partner program gives you access to our solutions engineering team, experts in best practices for building with both Shopify and Gadget. We’ll give you a jump start on your first Gadget project to show you the ropes and make sure you’re well on your way to building and shipping projects in minutes.
Pro tip: Check out our collection of forkable, customizable app templates to instantly create a production-ready app for your clients.
The agency partner program will also give you the option to join in beta tests for upcoming features. You’ll have the chance to share feedback and help shape the Gadget platform as we grow. Just like with Shopify’s developer previews, you’ll have time to get used to new features so you can take full advantage of them upon release, and continue to provide clients with all the latest trends.
As we continue to work with partners, we’ll be providing educational content and resources to help expedite your growth. We’ll support you with coaching and learning materials aimed at keeping you ahead of the curve with Shopify app development, so you can build and ship faster with Gadget and get back to focusing on what matters most: your clients.
