White label
How a platform becomes a Nordlet white-label partner, step by step, and what carries the partner's brand instead of Nordlet's.
A white-label partner is a business that builds Nordlet into its own product and resells its use to its own customers under its own brand. The partner's customers work in the partner's product, through the partner's screens and the Nordlet API. Nordlet has no contract with those customers and does not bill them.
What a partner gets
- One account for all customers. Every customer company is connected to the partner's account and billed to it. There is no fee per company, per user or per chart of accounts.
- A discount of 40% on usage. The usage charged to a white-label account is discounted by 40%. The agreement can set a higher discount for higher volumes.
- Usage per company.
POST /v1/billing/usage/listreturns the usage with the company of each row, so the partner can bill each customer. - Brand settings. The partner sets its brand name, logo, colour and footer text itself, under Account → White label.
Step by step
1. Write to Nordlet
Write to info@nordlet.com and describe your product, the countries of your customers and the volume you expect. Nordlet answers integration questions at the same address.
2. Sign the agreements
Nordlet and the partner sign the White-Label and Reseller Agreement. It covers the right to resell, the prices and discounts, support, liability and termination. The Data Processing Agreement is signed together with it: Nordlet processes the data of the partner's customers as the partner's sub-processor.
3. Register and test with sandbox companies
Register in the Nordlet app with the e-mail address the account will use. Create sandbox companies and build the integration against them: a sandbox company has the same modules and the same API as a live one, holds test data only, and its filings go to the administrations' test systems. See Getting started and the API reference.
4. Nordlet turns on white label for the account
Tell Nordlet which account to use. Nordlet marks its user as a white-label partner. From then on:
- usage charged to the account is discounted by 40%, starting with the next charge;
- the page Account → White label appears in the account menu of that user.
5. Set the brand
Open Account → White label and fill in the fields you need. Each can be left empty.
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Brand name | Printed in the "Sent with" line of the public invoice page. Written as the producer and creator of filled official form PDFs. Used as the footer line of e-mails when no footer text is set. Shown in the header of a quote e-mail when there is no logo. |
| Logo address | An https:// address of an image. Shown in the header of invoice, quote and payment reminder e-mails in place of the company name. |
| Colour | Written as #rrggbb. Used in those e-mails for the top line, the name in the header and the buttons. |
| Footer text | Printed in the footer of those e-mails in place of "Nordlet OÜ · API-first accounting". |
The same settings can be read and saved with POST /v1/account/brand/get and POST /v1/account/brand/update, called with the user session of the account; an API key is refused.
The settings apply to every company the account pays for. When the brand name is empty, the public invoice page shows no "Sent with" line.
6. Connect your customers
Create a company for each customer under the partner account, in the app or with POST /v1/account/companies/create (called with the user session of the account), and move existing books in with the migration import. See Migration. Add credits to the account under Account → Billing: the usage of all customer companies is deducted from it.
What stays in Nordlet's name
- Where an authority or a third party requires a filing, an access right or a document to name the technical provider, Nordlet OÜ is named.
- Sign-in, invitation and account e-mails that Nordlet sends to the users of the Nordlet app keep the Nordlet layout.
- The links to the public invoice page and the sender address of e-mails are Nordlet's.
Support
The partner supports its own customers. Nordlet supports the partner for faults of the service and questions about the API.
