How do we make money?

We get paid a commission by vendors and service providers for each sale. All commissions are already built into the solutions pricing structure, so you’re not paying any extra for working with us to procure your services. Most vendors and providers prefer to sell via agents as their route to market is much lower than a direct customer strategy. Our compensation on any particular purchase may vary depending on several factors, including the type and size of the product or solution, and the volume of business we have with a particular partner, Netify is vendor agnostic and does not push for or give preference to any one partner over another because of the commission.
