Billing Partner Program
Simplifying access and billing
Automation is only valuable if businesses can adopt it easily. Many times, the biggest barrier is not the technology itself but the friction of access and billing. This is where Billing Partners play a crucial role.
What is a Billing Partner?
A Billing Partner is a SaaS application that integrates with viaSocket using Single Sign-On (SSO). Through this integration:
Users log in to viaSocket directly from the Billing Partnerâs platform.
No separate viaSocket signup is required.
These users are automatically recognized as viaSocket users through redirection and SSO authentication.
The Billing Partner manages billing for all their users and pays viaSocket based on usage.
đ In short: Billing Partners make automation accessible by removing financial and entry barriers.

Seamless Access â Users sign in once and instantly use viaSocket through their existing SaaS app.
No Compliance Headaches â Local billing, invoicing, and payments are handled by the Billing Partner.
