Flywl, the cloud marketplace platform for enterprise software procurement, has launched the Flywl Partner Ecosystem to accelerate cloud software deals by leveraging partner influence. This initiative activates the ecosystem around marketplace-led procurement, uniting investors, advisors, and resellers who influence buying decisions to drive smarter software procurement and maximize cloud provider benefits.
The Flywl Partner Ecosystem provides a scalable framework for partners to integrate Flywl's capabilities into their operations. It caters to diverse types, including referral networks that introduce buyers or sellers for commission rewards, resellers and distributors embedding marketplace solutions, consultants optimizing procurement strategies, private equity and venture capital firms extending value to portfolios, and procurement/sourcing consultants streamlining vendor evaluation and spend optimization. This program addresses the shift toward marketplace-led procurement, reducing cycles from months to days while leveraging existing cloud commitments across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud.
Ankur Srivastava, CEO and Founder of Flywl, emphasized the strategic importance: “We're entering a new era of marketplace-led procurement. This program is about unlocking access for buyers who want flexibility, for sellers who want velocity, and for partners who want to shape the future of software commerce.” Joe Henderson, Senior Vice President of Seller Experience & Partner Ecosystem, added: “The Flywl Partner Ecosystem is built on the foundation that partners are central to our growth. We're creating an environment where partners feel valued, empowered to expand their networks, and set up to succeed. By bringing together investors, consultants, and connectors, we're strengthening the entire ecosystem and unlocking the full value of the cloud for everyone involved.”
The ecosystem features a referral program that monetizes networks through commissions for facilitating connections. It includes a streamlined welcome process with tools, education, and support. Dedicated Partner Experience roles offer white-glove onboarding, proactive collaboration, and shared performance dashboards. Interested partners can apply via the Flywl Partner Ecosystem Portal.
Stephen Benson, Founding Partner at ProfitEdge Advisors, highlighted the program's value: “Flywl has created the kind of partner model the cloud marketplace has been missing. The Partner Ecosystem brings structure, speed, and strategy to a space that's been fragmented for too long. Our partnership with Flywl empowers organizations to maximize the value of their technology investments, control spend against cloud commitments, and safeguard long-term financial outcomes for clients.”

By fostering collaboration among ecosystem players, Flywl helps enterprises unify software licensing, optimize procurement, and achieve faster, more efficient outcomes in the evolving cloud landscape.
