Channel Incentives Are the Revenue Lever You’re Not Pulling
With Varicent Channel Incentives, you can finally align partner behavior to your revenue goals, automate manual tasks, and track ROI for both sides. Partners will know what to sell, why it matters, and what they’ll earn, so they can act faster and sell smarter.

Why Traditional Channel Incentives Don’t Work

Most channel incentive programs aren't built to maximize results. They still run in spreadsheets or legacy systems, are hard to explain, and rarely make a clear connection between outcomes and payment.
That makes it nearly impossible for you to measure ROI, spot what’s working, or guide partner behavior. Partners don’t know how to earn more effectively, and you risk overspending without knowing what drives results.
Only 22% of partners have real-time access to their incentive progress. When you make incentive programs easier to understand and faster to earn from, partners prioritize your brand.
Without transparency and alignment, motivation drops and so does your revenue.
You want partners to act like an extension of your sales team. But if they don’t understand the strategy or see the reward, they won’t deliver like one.
A Smarter Way to Incentivize Your Channel
We treat channel incentives like the sales performance tools they are.
Your channel drives a major share of your revenue. It deserves more than blackbox admin. Varicent Channel Incentives gives you the tools to:
- Align partner behavior with your go-to-market strategy
- Give partners full visibility into what to sell, how to sell it,
and who to sell it to - Eliminate spreadsheets, delays, and overpayments
- Track what’s working, what’s not, and pivot fast
- Automate payouts and performance updates so partners always know what they’re earning and why
Your partners get a better experience. You get better results.
