Welcome to Resell Portal, your one-stop platform for managing and reselling software and services to your clients with ease. Whether you prefer a hands-on approach or want a fully automated solution, Resell Portal offers two powerful options to suit your needs: Manual Activation and Storefront (Auto). Let’s dive into each method to help you choose the one that fits your business goals and workflow best.
What Are Your Options?
Manual Activation
The Manual Activation method puts you in control of every detail, offering a personalized and direct way to activate software or services for your clients. If you thrive on precision and hands-on management, this option is for you.

-
Select the software or service you wish to activate.
-
Input your client’s email address, along with their preferred username and password.

Have a small client base and enjoy personal interactions.

Prefer a hands-on approach to managing client services.
Storefront (Auto)
For resellers looking for a scalable, automated, and branded solution, the Storefront option is a game-changer. Imagine having your own online store where clients can browse, purchase, and instantly access services—all while you earn profits effortlessly.
How It Works:

). -

How to Decide?
Still unsure which option is the perfect fit? Consider these scenarios:

Storefront (Auto): Perfect for resellers seeking to scale their business, automate processes, and present a polished, branded storefront to clients.
Why not use both? Some resellers start with Manual Activation to build relationships and trust, then transition to a Storefront for automation and scalability as their client base grows.
