How the partner marketing fund works
Funding for approved activities and events
It’s best to apply for funding and gain pre-approval for your upcoming marketing spend. We’ll reimburse approved activities and events up to the limits for your partner status.
- Approved marketing activities: Supplier invoices are reimbursed dollar-for-dollar up to the limit
- Approved events: Supplier invoices for venue rental and catering only are reimbursed in full up to the limit
- You can apply for funding to help with both marketing and event costs for the same event or workshop
- Your marketing fund entitlement refreshes every new financial year end (at the end of March)
- If you’ve got queries or need help, please reach out to your Xero account manager or simply email us
Using partner marketing funds
You can use the funds to attract new clients or raise awareness of Xero among your existing clients.
- Examples of what can be funded include the costs of advertising, editorial and Xero collateral; travel and accommodation are excluded
- Marketing activities must include a Xero partner badge, promote the benefits of Xero and, if possible, a call to action to visit xero.com
