Introducing The Sketchfab Partner Program

Today more and more brands are turning towards working with 3D — even companies that have never worked with 3D before. To get the ball rolling, often they look for assistance in creating 3D assets and for web development to create unique experiences such as 3D configurators.

In order to best serve our customers’ needs while maintaining our primary focus on continuously improving the highest quality 3D engine for the web, we have launched the Sketchfab Preferred Partners Program.

Sketchfab Preferred Partners benefit from Sketchfab’s demand from world-class businesses who need services to properly implement 3D as well as direct access to Sketchfab’s product team. 

Sketchfab Preferred Partners are specialists or agencies that assist with 3D content production or API development for clients on behalf of Sketchfab.

• Revenue share: Once you become a vetted partner, you receive a free trial license, and for each new client you onboard with Sketchfab, you get rewarded with a commission. 

• Lead sharing: Receive project leads through our Partner Directory.

• Advanced training & technical support.

• Direct support from our API experts.

• Sketchfab certification badge: By meeting our requirements you have the opportunity to display the Sketchfab Partner Program’s Certified Partner logo, signaling your expertise and relationship with Sketchfab.
