Rechargly uses a discount split system that lets your firm decide how vendor discounts are shared between you and your clients. This gives you flexibility to retain, share, or pass on discounts based on your business preferences.
Setting discount splits
You can set discount splits in two ways:
Vendor-level rule: apply a default discount split for all clients under a specific vendor (for example, keep 100% of the discount).
Client-level override: create exceptions for individual clients (for example, give AquaFlow 50% of the discount).
Worked example
Say a vendor's list price is $100 a month and Xero gives your firm a 30% partner discount, so your cost is $70.
Keep the full discount: set the split so the client receives 0% of the discount. The client pays $100, your cost is $70, and you keep $30.
Share the discount: to give the client a $10 saving and keep $20 yourself, pass on one third of the 30% discount (about 33%). The client pays $90, your cost is $70, and you keep $20.
Pass on the full discount: set the split so the client receives 100% of the discount. The client pays $70, your cost is $70, and you keep nothing.
The split is entered as the share of the vendor discount the client receives, not the percentage off the list price. In the middle example the client receives about 33% of the 30% discount, which works out to 10% off their price.
Promotional discounts
From the billing page, you can also choose how promotional discounts are split.
Partner discount only: when you choose this option, the client receives the full promotional discount.
Total discount: the promotional prices are marked up to retail and then follow the discount split logic.
