Reseller Portal ​

What is the Reseller Portal? ​

The Reseller Portal lets you sell your Wi-Fi vouchers through third-party resellers instead of only directly to end users. You sign up a reseller, give them a wholesale price, and they buy vouchers from you in bulk and resell them to their own customers at their own markup.

This is ideal for cash-based and low-income markets, where end users often pay with cash for a printed voucher rather than with a card through a payment gateway. You keep control of the plans, prices, and locations; the reseller handles the day-to-day selling.

A typical arrangement looks like this:

1. You create a reseller organization and give one or more people access to it.
2. You set the wholesale price (a discount off the retail plan price) and which plans and locations the reseller may sell.
3. The reseller funds their balance — either you top it up for them (for example, after they hand you cash), or they pay you directly through a payment gateway at the moment of purchase.
4. The reseller orders a batch of vouchers, which is generated instantly, and distributes them to their customers (printed codes, SMS, and so on).
5. You can watch each organization's activity, and reseller-owned vouchers are clearly marked everywhere in your own admin panel.

Setting up a reseller ​

Reseller organizations are managed under Config → Finance → Reseller & Organizations.

Create an organization ​

Click Add and fill in the organization's details — name, country, currency, and contact information.

In the organization's settings you also define the commercial terms:

• Available data plans — only the plans you assign here can be ordered by the reseller.
• Available locations — the locations the reseller's vouchers may be sold for. A voucher can be limited to one location or allowed on all of them.
• Available top-up methods — the payment gateways the reseller may use to pay you directly (see Funding a reseller's balance).
• Wholesale discount — the discount off the retail plan price that sets the reseller's wholesale cost. This is the gap the reseller earns their margin from.
• SMS gateway — the gateway used when a reseller sends voucher details to a customer by SMS. Leave it empty to hide the Send SMS button for that organization.

Add members and assign roles ​

A reseller organization can have several members. Open the Members section to add an admin and give them a role within that organization.

There are three organization roles:

• Owner — full control: orders vouchers, requests balance top-ups, sets the markup, manages members, exports, and sends SMS.
• Manager — works with vouchers and sees finances, but cannot order new vouchers or change the markup.
• Viewer — read-only access to everything in the organization.

Funding a reseller's balance ​

Reseller organizations work on a prepaid balance. The balance can never go negative — a reseller can only order vouchers worth up to their current balance.

Open an organization and go to its Finance tab to see the current balance and the full history of every top-up and purchase.

To add funds — for example, after a reseller hands you cash — click Add Funds, enter the amount, and optionally add a note (such as a bank-transfer reference). The new balance is shown for confirmation before it is applied.

Every credit and debit is recorded in the ledger with the date, amount, the resulting balance, and who performed it, so the financial history is always traceable.

Entering the Reseller Portal ​

When an admin is assigned to one or more reseller organizations, a Reseller Portal button appears in the top-right of the navigation bar. With one organization it opens the portal directly; with several it offers a picker.

Admins always have a Return to Main Dashboard button so they can switch back. Accounts created purely as resellers go straight to the portal and do not see the main Powerlynx dashboard at all.

The reseller dashboard ​

The dashboard is the reseller's landing page. It shows, for their organization:

• Available balance — current prepaid balance.
• Today's sales and Current month sales — how many vouchers were sold and their value, with a comparison to the previous period.
• Active vouchers — vouchers with a customer session currently in progress.
• A sales overview chart for the chosen period, a voucher status breakdown, and the most recent balance transactions.

Buying vouchers ​

Resellers buy vouchers from the Purchase vouchers screen, in a short step-by-step flow:

1. Select a plan — only the plans you made available to the organization are shown, each with its price and limits.
2. Set the quantity and expiration — choose how many vouchers to generate. The expiration is pre-filled from the selected plan and can be adjusted if needed.
3. Review & confirm — check the order summary (quantity, retail price, discount, and total cost) and choose how to pay.

Choosing how to pay ​

On the review step the reseller picks a payment method:

• Pay from balance — the total is taken from the organization's prepaid balance.
• Pay via payment gateway — the reseller pays you directly through a payment gateway. This option appears only when you have enabled a top-up method for that organization.

When paying by gateway, the reseller sees a checkout summary and is taken to the gateway's secure payment page.

Result ​

Once payment succeeds (or the balance is debited), the batch is generated immediately and a result page confirms how many vouchers were created and the amount charged, with options to export the batch or view the vouchers.

Managing voucher stock ​

The reseller's Vouchers section is organised around batches.

The Batches list shows every batch the organization has ordered, with its plan, location, date, quantity, and the total it cost.

Opening a batch lists its individual vouchers. From here the reseller can, per voucher or in bulk:

• Assign a customer to a voucher.
• Mark as sold once it has been handed over.
• Cancel a voucher that should no longer be usable.
• Send via SMS — deliver the voucher code to a customer through the organization's SMS gateway.

Exporting a batch ​

A whole batch can be exported as a CSV file or a printable PDF, both from the Batches list and straight from the result page after a purchase. The PDF uses the organization's voucher template, ready for printing.

Reseller vouchers in your admin panel ​

Vouchers generated through the Reseller Portal live alongside your own in the main admin panel, and they are clearly marked so you don't change a reseller's stock by mistake.

In Vouchers → List there are Reseller and Reseller org columns and a filter, so you can see at a glance which vouchers belong to a reseller and narrow the list to a single organization.

In Vouchers → Series, batches created by a reseller carry a Reseller badge, with the organization's name shown on hover.

And when you open a reseller-owned voucher for editing, a clear warning reminds you that it belongs to a reseller and that changing it may affect their stock and their customers.
