To keep in mind:

  • Make sure that there are no outdated tools in your partner portal
  • Major updates that significantly changes the content or structure of the tool must be communicated clearly and with good foresight to us at Skolon via support@skolon.eu
  • Skolon invoices the customers that buy licenses through Skolon on a monthly basis. For you as a partner we will settle according to the current routines and conditions that are defined in your partner agreement. You will receive an invoice specification the month after the customers purchase and can then invoice Skolon.
  • Make sure that your VAT percentage is correct for the applicable markets.
  • You can create discount codes for your customers in the partner portal. See the Discount codes article.
  • When a customer has ordered licenses for a tool where licenses are not created automatically an order confirmation will be sent to the e-mail address that you have specified in the partner portal. NOTE! You must handle this order within 5 days and make sure that the customer receives delivery of the tool via e-mail.
