Service Agency partnerships
A senior WordPress, Laravel, and AI team you can resell as your own.
NDA-backed, capped retainers, your brand on every deliverable. We are the engineering team behind several agencies that ship community platforms, LMS builds, SaaS products, and AI integrations.
Active partnerships with multiple agencies. Under their brand, by design.
Why agencies hire us
You sell the client. We ship the code. Your margin stays clean.
Most agencies hit a ceiling that has nothing to do with sales. The sales pipeline is full; the dev capacity is not. Hiring senior engineers takes months. Offshore subcontractors require translation management. Junior developers ship technical debt your senior team then has to clean up at zero margin.
White-label development is the third option. You get a senior engineering team - the same one that maintains our own product line and ships to WordPress.org - operating inside your brand. NDA-backed, capped retainers, your code and credentials stay in your accounts. The client sees your agency; we stay invisible.
A partner portfolio
Twelve client sites. Your team, on every one.
A sample of the client portfolio view we ship to white-label partners. Each tile is one of your end-customer sites, fully branded as your agency. Status pills show the work in flight for each. Scroll up and back down to replay.

What we deliver
A second engineering team. Under your brand. By design.
Senior WordPress, Laravel, Astro, and AI engineers operating as your team. Capped retainers, predictable margin, white-label reporting, zero lock-in.
01
Under your brand, end to end
Email signatures, Basecamp identity, Loom recordings, status reports, code comments, commit authors - all signed as your company, not ours. Your client never sees a wbcomdesigns.com domain. NDA covers the engagement before the first line of code.
Your brand is the only brand the client sees.
02
Senior team, no hand-offs
You get the same engineers who maintain BuddyPress Moderation Pro, BuddyX Pro, and our own product line. No outsourced juniors. No "passed to the offshore team after the sales call." The person on the kickoff is the person shipping code in week three.
Quality stays consistent across every deliverable.
03
Capped retainers, predictable margin
Monthly hour caps with rollover up to 50 percent. Fixed-price scope blocks for defined deliverables. No surprise overages. Your margin is locked when you quote the client. We absorb estimation risk inside the cap.
Profit per engagement is predictable, not hopeful.
04
Code and credentials stay with you
GitHub access in your org, not ours. Hosting credentials in your password manager. Documentation under your domain. If you decide to in-source mid-project, every artefact is already where you would inherit it. No vendor lock-in.
You can off-board us at any time without rewriting anything.
05
Stacks we resell across (not just WordPress)
WordPress + BuddyPress, LearnDash, WooCommerce, EDD - our core. Laravel SaaS engineering, Astro static sites, AI chatbots, custom AI agents, MCP server development, marketing automation. The full agency stack from a single partner, not five different vendors.
One partner replaces your subcontractor matrix.
06
Reporting your client can actually read
Weekly written status in the format your client expects (PDF, Loom, Basecamp, Slack). Translated to outcomes, not commit messages. Each report co-branded as your agency. Available for client review under your domain if needed.
You forward the report; you do not rewrite it first.
6+
active agency partnerships shipping under their brand
WordPress builds, LearnDash LMS engagements, BuddyPress community platforms, SaaS products, AI integrations.
Process
How an agency partnership runs.
01
Onboarding
One to two weeks. NDA + MSA in place. Your Basecamp / Slack / GitHub access granted. Co-branded reporting templates locked. First retainer block scheduled. Pricing tier agreed.
Partnership operational, no surprises.
02
Delivery
Monthly retainer hours allocated to your projects as you direct. Fixed-price blocks for scoped deliverables. Weekly status reports under your brand. Same-day response on partner-priority issues during business hours.
Engineering capacity scales with your sales pipeline.
03
Ongoing
Quarterly partnership reviews - utilization, margin, retention. Hour-cap adjustments as your pipeline grows. Optional access to our product team for client-side product strategy. No-cost off-boarding if priorities shift.
Partnership compounds, not contracts in perpetuity.
Common questions
Frequently asked
-
Do you sign client-facing contracts?
No. The client contracts with you. Wbcom contracts with you under a master service agreement and an NDA. Your client sees one vendor: yours. We invoice you, you invoice the client at whatever margin you set.
-
How do you handle communication?
Inside your Basecamp, Slack, or Linear. Email signatures and Loom intros are co-branded or fully white-labeled. We default to silent on calls unless you want us on (in which case we attend as your engineering team).
-
What if the client asks who is behind the code?
You decide. Some partners disclose we are a contracted team; most do not. Either way, the NDA blocks us from approaching the client directly, soliciting them, or showing the work in our portfolio without your written consent.
-
What is the minimum engagement?
Retainers start at 20 hours per month with a 3-month minimum. Fixed-price project blocks have no minimum but quotes for under $5K are not cost-effective on either side. Discovery calls are free.
-
Do you take over emergency work or only planned projects?
Both. Active retainer partners get priority on emergency work (within 4 business hours for P1 issues). Non-retainer emergencies are accepted case by case at standard hourly rates.
-
Can we resell your products (Reign, BuddyX, BP plugins) too?
Yes. Agency partner pricing on bulk licenses for our 100+ products. Co-branded product configurations available. Talk to us about volume tiers if you ship a lot of communities or membership sites.

Discovery call is free. NDA can be in place before the call. Partner pricing tiers shared after scope alignment.
