PreProduct
Loves Agencies
Pre-orders are all we do and we’ve worked with Shopify and BigCommerce agencies for years. Some want direct technical help. Some want better pricing for their client. Some want us on the call. Tell us what’s useful and let’s chat.
Partner on your terms
Why team up with PreProduct?
Every agency works differently, so we don’t run a one size fits all programme. What actually helps on a build is getting technical help before you quote, spotting the client’s 3PL gotcha early, and taking the support load off you once it’s live.
Pick whatever’s useful below: one thing, all of it, or something that isn’t on the list.
-
A direct line to our devs
Not a support tier. Email or hop on a video call with the people who actually built PreProduct.
-
Priority support for your client
Their tickets skip the queue. We’ll loop you in or keep you out of it, whichever you prefer.
-
Pricing that fits the build
If the standard plans don’t suit the shape of what you’re building, talk to us before you quote.
-
We’ll join the client call
Pre-sales, scoping or a post-launch review. Happy to be the pre-order expert so you don’t have to be.
-
Free dev stores
Unlimited installs on dev and staging stores. No charge, no time limit.
-
Scoping help before you pitch
Send the requirements. We’ll say what’s native, what needs Flow or the API, and what we can’t do yet.
-
Similar builds to learn from
We’ve probably worked with a brand doing something close to your client’s setup. We’ll walk you through how they solved it.
-
Affiliate, if you want it
20% recurring commission is on the table. Plenty of agencies don’t want it, and that’s completely fine. Your retainer dwarfs it anyway, and it shouldn’t be the reason you recommend us.
Pre-orders are all we do
Why brands love PreProduct
Pre-orders are all we do. That focus lets us specialise and go deeper for more ambitious, smoother campaigns.
-
Native Shopify checkout
Discounts, shipping profiles, Shopify Functions and PayPal all work normally. Orders land in the Shopify admin.
-
Five charging models
Charge-upfront, charge-later on a vaulted card, deposits, capture-only, and multi-step payment plans on Plus.
-
No 7-day auth expiry
Vaulted cards instead of authorisations, so long lead times aren’t a problem.
-
Fully white-label
No “powered by” badge on the button or in checkout. It looks like the client’s store.
-
Smarter, automated pre-orders
Listing Manager rules, auto-charge workflows and scheduled reports, plus 15 Shopify Flow actions and 16 triggers, Klaviyo events and a REST API. Automate as much or as little as the client needs.
-
Flexible charging, campaign by campaign
Match the payment model to each launch rather than the other way round. Deposits for high ticket, charge-later for uncertain timelines, upfront for quick restocks.
-
Controlled overselling that integrates
Fulfilment holds with manual release, mixed or isolated carts, and variant and customer level limits. Built to work alongside 3PLs and ERPs that don’t understand pre-orders.
-
Keeping pre-order customers informed
Custom front-end wording, customer portals and update emails. Buyers can check status, view payment schedules, cancel or pay early, so the “when’s it shipping?” tickets don’t land on your client.

Get in touch
Tell us how we can help and what you’d want from us. A couple of lines about the client and their setup is plenty to get started.
Affiliate terms, if you want the commission
Some agencies want the commission, plenty don’t. If you do, these are the terms. If you don’t, ignore this section entirely; nothing else on this page depends on it.
Commission
20% recurring commission for up to 24 months while the referred merchant remains active on PreProduct Scale+ or higher, calculated on net subscription revenue received by PreProduct after Shopify app billing fees.
Commission is based on actual paid PreProduct subscription revenue received by PreProduct, after Shopify app billing fees and excluding refunds, chargebacks, discounts, taxes, and one-off services.
For example, if a referred merchant is on our Scale+ plan at $259/month, the commission would be calculated from the amount received by PreProduct after Shopify app billing fees have been deducted.
Eligible referrals
- The merchant is new to PreProduct
- The merchant installed PreProduct on or after 1 March 2026
- The merchant signs up to PreProduct Scale+ or higher
- The referral is introduced by email before the merchant installs PreProduct
- The agency, consultant, or partner had a meaningful role in introducing the merchant to PreProduct
Referrals must be approved by PreProduct before commission is paid.
What is not eligible
- Merchants already using PreProduct
- Merchants already in our sales pipeline
- Merchants who sign up to a plan below Scale+
- Refunds, chargebacks, discounts, taxes, or one-off services
- Referrals made after the merchant has already signed up, unless agreed by PreProduct
Plan changes
If the referred merchant upgrades to a higher eligible plan, commission will be calculated from the new paid subscription amount received by PreProduct after Shopify app billing fees.
If the merchant downgrades below Scale+, commission stops from the date the lower plan takes effect. If the merchant cancels, commission stops from the cancellation date.
Payment schedule
Commission is calculated and paid quarterly. Payments are only made after the referred merchant’s subscription payments have been received by PreProduct and confirmed.
We may apply a short delay before paying commission to account for Shopify app billing fees, refunds, failed payments, chargebacks, or billing adjustments.
Payment method
Agency partners are responsible for providing accurate payment details, and for any taxes, fees, or reporting obligations related to commission payments.
Attribution
Most agency referrals happen through real conversations, not perfect tracking links. To keep attribution clear, please introduce the merchant by email and Shopify domain before they install PreProduct.
If more than one partner claims the same referral, PreProduct will decide attribution based on the original introduction and the role each party played.
Custom arrangements
For larger merchants, strategic agency relationships, or more hands-on implementation work, we’re open to discussing custom terms. Email us and we’ll work it out.
