# As a Partner

Partners use CERTInext to place certificate orders on behalf of end customers. This enables resellers and service providers to manage customer certificates while maintaining pricing control and centralized billing.

When placing an order as a Partner:

* Orders follow partner-configured price lists
* Payment is settled from the Partner wallet
* Orders are automatically linked for reporting and commission tracking

Partners can place orders directly for customers or through Sub-Partner workflows, depending on their account configuration. All partner-initiated orders follow the same validation and issuance standards enforced by CERTInext.
