WHY PARTNER

Bring verified identity and a working business system to the creators you already serve.

HKAIIFF CHANNEL lets partners supply two product lines from the Hong Kong AI International Film Festival ecosystem — HKAIIFF INDEX records and AIF NODE creator websites — under their own brand, at partner prices, with verification the market can check.

Four things a partnership gives you

Products creators actually need

A permanent, machine-readable record for a work or IP, and a website, catalogue and service centre on the creator's own domain. Both are operated by the product platforms; you sell, advise and onboard.

A wholesale model you can plan around

You buy at your tier's partner price with prepaid funds or in bulk licence lots, and set your own retail price within the published terms. The difference is your margin; there are no commissions to reconcile.

An identity customers can verify

Every partner receives an authorisation number and a partner page on hkaiiff.channel. Customers can confirm your status in seconds, which protects you from imitators as much as it protects them.

Tools in your language

The partner workspace, customer notices and public pages run in ten languages. Price books, licence inventory, renewals and support live in one place.

Common questions before applying

Do I need technical integration?

No. Services are provisioned by the product platforms after you confirm an order in the workspace. An interface is available for partners who want one later.

Can I set my own prices?

Yes, within the published terms. Partner purchase prices are confidential; your retail price is yours to decide and display on your partner page.

What if a customer already has an account on a product platform?

The order is matched to the customer's verified e-mail, so existing accounts simply receive the new service or renewal.
