At Sylius, we love open source because of its transparency, freedom, true value and people. It’s the shared passion, engagement, and exchange of knowledge that keep Sylius evolving. Every contribution, no matter how big or small, is valuable and deserves recognition. We believe these values can be transformed into the way we do business. To further support our ecosystem development, including product and surrounding community, we’re launching an initiative that unites the power of our partners to make collaboration even more rewarding.
We want your partnership with Sylius to be not only productive but also fulfilling. That’s why we’ve created a gamified points program that rewards partners for their contributions to the growth of Sylius and its ecosystem. In return, you’ll gain greater visibility on the Sylius Partners page, more promotional opportunities, and the recognition you deserve among other community members.
Your efforts shape the future of Sylius, and we’re here to make sure everyone knows just how important your role is in building our ecosystem.
The program operates on a simple points-based system. For every action you take to support Sylius, you earn points. These points directly influence your position on the Sylius Partners page. The more points you collect, the higher your visibility – unlocking greater opportunities to attract new clients and projects.
Your position isn’t just about points. Partnership level remains a key factor. Premium Solution Partners and Leading Solution Partners will always appear above Professional Solution Partners, even if they have fewer points. So, while points boost visibility within your category, higher partnership levels naturally carry more weight. Nevertheless, the partner points are a strong indication of upgrading to the upper partnership trim, once approved by a dedicated partner manager.
We reward a wide range of actions that contribute to the growth of the Sylius ecosystem. We tried to organize them in a way that highlights the most impactful actions, which are directly rewarded via points scorings. Here’s how you can earn points:
| Submitted case-study Multiplied in case of large, impactful implementation | 1500 |

Every action contributes to Sylius’s growth while bringing measurable benefits to your organization. The more you engage, the more points you earn, and the higher your visibility within your partnership category.
A particularly impactful contribution is related to Sylius Plus, our commercial product that funds the development of the Community Edition. Its success directly supports the open-source ecosystem, which is why actions like selling or renewing Sylius Plus licenses are highly valued in our program and rewarded with significant points. This reflects their importance in ensuring the continued growth and sustainability of the Sylius platform for the entire community.
Participating in the program offers multiple advantages:
Enhanced visibility: A higher ranking on the Partners page means your company will be noticed by more potential clients, increasing your chances of securing new projects.
Stronger community reputation: Your active support for Sylius and its community will be recognized and celebrated, solidifying your status as a trusted and valued partner.
Marketing & SEO benefits: Activities like blog publishing, case studies, and plugin development don’t just increase your presence on the Sylius platform – they also amplify partner SEO performance. As a result, your company will rank higher in search engines, making it easier for potential clients to find you. This dual benefit helps position your organization as a leader in the Sylius ecosystem and the broader digital commerce landscape.
Badges & annual awards: To make your contributions even more rewarding, we’ve introduced special badges that recognize your efforts and achievements within the Sylius ecosystem. These badges celebrate key milestones and activities, helping you stand out as an active and valuable member of our community. Each badge highlights specific types of contributions, and earning them brings not just prestige but also a boost in visibility and reputation.
Annual Awards: Each year at SyliusCon, we will honor the most outstanding partners based on their accumulated points and badges. These awards recognize exceptional contributions and provide an opportunity for your efforts to be celebrated in front of the entire Sylius community. Whether you’ve driven innovation, shared knowledge, or supported open-source initiatives, this is your chance to shine. Let’s look at last year’s frist awards!
Joining the program is easy. Keep contributing as you always have – organizing meetups, submitting plugins, publishing content – and we’ll handle the rest. Points are automatically calculated and updated based on your social media and public contributions, which we monitor monthly.
