Our Merchants Demand Frictionless Integration 

We hold our Technology Partners to an exceptionally high standard when it comes to building Magento extensions. Magento Technology Partner extensions are more than just “check-the-box” data feed integrations. Merchants expect our partners to develop extensions that provide native capabilities with our admin tools and ready-to-go storefront enhancements. 

To deliver on this promise, we require that partner: 

• List Your Extension in Magento Marketplace. To be a Magento Technology Partner, you must list all the extensions or integrations that you currently maintain or market on the Magento extension Marketplace. 
• Deliver a timely extension revalidation. Magento typically releases three minor (point release) updates to our platform a year. It is critical that our partners re-certify their extensions within 30 days of each GA release of Magento. 
• Offer support for all Magento editions. To ensure your solution can be sold and used by the entire Magento customer base, we require your extension to be developed for and tested against all three editions of Magento: Community, Enterprise, and Cloud. 

We understand building a quality extension may be a timely and costly exercise, and we want to make this process as easy as possible. As a result, we offer our Technology Partners: 

• Extension support. If you don’t have the in-house skills or resources to develop an extension, we can make formal introductions to solution partners who specialize in developing extensions for our Technology Partners. We also provide discounted rates with our in-house Expert Consulting Group (ECG) to help you get your extension built and certified. 
• Magento training. Whether you intend to build your extension yourself or outsource the work, it is key that you understand the Magento platform. To facilitate this, we offer 20 percent off our end-user and technical training courses for our General Technology Partners and 25 percent off for Select Technology Partners. 
• A complimentary Magento Developer License. We require that you build and test your extension against our platform. 
• A complimentary Magento Cloud sandbox. We require that your extension is tested within our cloud environment, especially with our cloud Content Delivery Network provider, Fastly. 
• Prioritized extension submissions. Your release schedules may be frequent and you may need to make improvements to your extension. Our Select Technology Partners get prioritized extension quality processing to ensure their updated extensions are pushed live on Marketplace.
