Sponsorship Program for Partners

Set up partner sponsorship in the workspace, share links, and track redemptions

Managing Partner Sponsorship

Partner sponsorship lets a partner organization sponsor new organizations with free access for a configured duration. New users receive a link such as /auth?sponsored=<token>; when they sign up or sign in, a new sponsored organization is provisioned for them with the configured duration.

Prerequisites

  • The workspace must have the partnerSponsorship product flag enabled.
  • meinGPT platform support sets the partner envelope (price per seat per month, maximum duration, maximum seats per campaign) directly in the header of the sponsorship settings page. Regular partner admins see the envelope as read-only.
  • If the feature is not visible in your workspace yet, the team can enable it on request.

Where to find it

The UI is available in workspace settings at /{organizationId}/settings/sponsorship. The header shows the current billable price and the configured caps. Below that, two primary actions — Invite people and Create sponsored link — and the list of all active / expired sponsored accounts as the main content.

Invite people

The recommended way to distribute sponsorship to specific recipients. Paste a list of email addresses and set the duration and seats per person.

  • a one-time redeemable personal link is generated per recipient
  • invalid email addresses and duplicates within your input are detected immediately and highlighted in the list; addresses that already have an active sponsorship link are skipped automatically at creation time
  • the generated links aren't shown individually - they're downloaded directly as a CSV file so you can share them yourself - no email is sent automatically today, and there is no automatic reminder or status list

For public distribution (conference QR code, newsletter, workshop slide). You get one or more URLs that can each be redeemed multiple times.

  • internal name (required, max 80 characters)
  • number of links (1–500) — each link has its own token
  • optional redemption cap per link

After creation, copy the URL(s) and share them. Each link sends users into the normal auth flow and already includes the sponsorship token.

From the Sponsored Links overview you can download every link plus its status as a CSV (English column names).

Seat count (includedSeats)

Each sponsored organization receives a fixed seat count (set by the partner envelope). Admins of the sponsored organization will hit that limit when inviting additional users until they free up seats or switch to a paid plan.

Welcome bonus

Every successful redemption also unlocks a one-time welcome credit of €25 in premium credits for the newly sponsored organization.

Track redemptions, billing details, and technical status

For each successful redemption, the UI shows when it happened, how long the sponsorship runs, and the billed amount (billingAmount) recorded for it.

A redemption's status (status) can be:

  • PENDING
  • COMPLETED
  • FAILED

This status reflects the technical progress of the redemption. It does not control whether a user can redeem the sponsorship.

What happens when a sponsorship ends

Sponsored workspaces run with autoRenewal: false. Once sponsoredUntil is reached, the sponsorship ends and access becomes gated accordingly. Organization data is retained. Today there is no automatic downgrade and no automatic grace-period workflow. Admins of the sponsored organization can upgrade to a paid plan to continue access.

Pricing and commercial terms

The price per seat per month is agreed between the partner and meinGPT and then entered by platform support directly in the header of the sponsorship settings page per partner workspace (field partnerSponsorshipPriceEurPerSeatMonth, default 15 EUR). Partners cannot change the price themselves; partners should reach out to their meinGPT contact to adjust it. At redemption time the current price is snapshotted onto the redemption so that later price changes do not affect billing of existing redemptions.

Also set on the partner level (same header area):

  • partnerSponsorshipMaxDurationMonths — maximum duration for any campaign the partner creates.
  • partnerSponsorshipMaxSeatsPerCampaign — optional cap on includedSeats per campaign. Blank means unlimited.

Manage in meinGPT

Manage campaigns, invites, and personalized links directly in the Partner Sponsorship UI in meinGPT.
