Get started as a partner
Every Kariant partner starts the same way: one account created at hq.kariant.app, one partner setup, and a console that grows with you. This page walks the first mile — and maps the rest of the journey.
One account for every Kariant surfacelink
Kariant runs on a single identity. You sign up once at hq.kariant.app — the Kariant Identity portal — and that account follows you across kariant.app, the partner console, Koins, and every other Kariant surface. There is no separate “partner login”.
Adding a verified Partner identity does not remove your individual access to consumer products. Partner actions remain isolated in their own product and organization context.
- 1Go to hq.kariant.app (or click Sign in from any Kariant page — a brief “Redirecting to secure sign-in…” screen hands you to the central secure sign-in and returns you afterwards) and create your account — email + password (at least 12 characters with a mix of cases, numbers, and symbols), a one-tap magic link, a one-time code by email or text, or a supported social provider.
- 2Verify your email if prompted and complete your basic profile.
- 3Open kariant.app/partner — the partner site — and start partner setup from there.
Complete partner setuplink
Partner setup needs your organization page first — created in a minute by adding your website (its details pre-fill from your site; no legal registration is required, and this is separate from your account's declared legal status). Accounts without an organization page can use every buyer-side surface but cannot list as partners. Partner setup then activates the partner role on your existing account and creates your partner profile. From that moment the partner console appears in your navigation — and your clock starts: for eligible early partners, the 100% money-back-as-Kash becomes bank-redeemable from day 366, counted from the day your partner profile is created.
Setup asks for the essentials — who you are, your company, and what you plan to list. Everything else (organization @handle, billing, Kontext ICP) has its own step later in this journey.
Organization setup uses your master Kariant account. Your first organization is free across products. If setup needs an additional organization, open Organizations and review its 1,000-Koin quote with an authorized KashFlow account; partner activation cannot silently charge that fee. Unresolved organization setup remains pending until it is completed.
An existing business is not selected just because it is first in your account. When the Confirm your business panel is available during HQ setup or on your application status page, search your eligible owned organizations, select the intended business and confirm the no-charge link. A saved selection resumes the original application; it does not mean activation has finished. At HQ, use Continue activation after confirmation. Your payment and existing organizations remain intact. Do not create or pay for another organization merely to bypass this selection.
A previously confirmed business is shown read-only. If confirmation is uncertain, retry only the retained selection when offered; do not submit a different business or repeat payment. Archived or suspended organizations cannot be linked. A missing, conflicting or legacy binding, or an application that still needs manual review, requires support with your application reference.
If HQ setup stops waiting after a minute, use Continue with the same setup link. Your recorded application and payment are not erased by a connection timeout. If activation was confirmed but access could not be refreshed, the screen distinguishes that outcome. Do not apply or pay again to recover a stalled confirmation.
An old setup success does not override current account or partner access restrictions. If setup asks you to verify your session, sign in again with your intended master Kariant account and continue the same application. Suspended access or conflicting records require support review, not another payment.
Payment confirmation is not approval or activation. A delayed account-access refresh does not erase your application or require another fee. Sign in with the intended verified account and use the same setup link; contact support if access still needs review. Leaving the confirmation screen stops its local background continuation.
If an invitation or application-review confirmation is interrupted, give support your original application reference before requesting another invitation. A missing confirmation does not prove the review failed, and an invitation email does not itself activate your partnership. Do not repeat payment to recover a delayed review or email.
A created invitation and an email queued for sending are different from delivery to your inbox. If the email does not arrive, check spam and ask support to verify delivery using the same application reference. Regenerating an invitation replaces its earlier setup link; never share a setup link publicly.
If review pauses because application or payment details changed or could not be verified, keep the original application and payment references for support. Do not pay again or create another application to bypass that check. An interrupted review is not confirmation that a refund or activation has completed.
A payment-review decision being recorded does not mean the purchased access was delivered. If delivery is still processing or its confirmation is uncertain, keep the original transaction reference and ask support to reconcile that attempt. A manually recorded refund is not a bank-transfer receipt; confirm the payment-provider or bank outcome separately.
If support gives you an original review command reference, keep it with your application reference. Checking that outcome does not submit another application or resend an invitation. An unknown email outcome can mean its confirmation was interrupted; it does not prove the email was never queued. Ask support to reconcile the original review before requesting a replacement link, and do not repeat payment.
Sign-in security and console accesslink
Partner accounts use the same security as every Kariant account: passwords are at least 12 characters with a mix of cases, numbers, and symbols; Forgot password on the sign-in screen emails a time-limited, single-use reset link (an expired or already-used link shows a clear message with a one-click “Request a new link” button); and you can add two-factor authentication with an authenticator app under Settings → Security — accounts holding more than one second factor choose between “Authenticator app” and “Text message” at sign-in.
Console access follows your account, not a separate login: once your application is approved and setup completes, the partner console appears in your navigation. If it does not show right away, sign out and sign back in — a fresh sign-in picks up newly granted access.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a separate account to be a partner?expand_more
No. One Kariant account carries every role. Partner setup adds the partner role to the account you created at hq.kariant.app — you can be a buyer and a partner on the same login.
When does the money-back clock start?expand_more
At partner-profile creation. For eligible early partners (per-region and per-category caps), 100% of the listing fee comes back as Kash, bank-redeemable from day 366 counted from the day your partner profile was created.
Does it cost anything to create the account or start setup?expand_more
No. Creating the account and completing partner setup are free. You pay only when you buy your listing plan — a one-time fee that includes your listing for life.
Where do I track my application after submitting?expand_more
At kariant.app/partner/status — the application status page shows where your onboarding application stands (in review, approved, or rejected with the decision note). Approval and rejection also notify you in-app and by email.
I was approved but the partner console isn’t showing — what do I do?expand_more
Sign out and sign back in. Console access is granted to your account at approval, and a fresh sign-in picks it up — the console then appears in your navigation.
