About the program
What is Equire?

Equire is Ecomma's official partner program. We're a Dubai-based e-commerce acquisition group that acquires and operates strong consumer brands for the long term, and connects the brands we place with the right buyers. Equire exists to reward the people who help us find those businesses and buyers.

As an Equire Partner, you introduce e-commerce businesses for sale (or buyers for the brands we're placing) to our team. When a deal you introduced closes, you earn a commission that is guaranteed, protected, and tier-based. The more deals you close, the higher your Equire tier, and the more you earn per deal.

There is no cost to join. There is no cap on how much you can earn. All you need is a network and the knowledge of what makes a strong e-commerce business.

Soft filter criteria do not automatically disqualify a business. They are flags that trigger deeper review. Referrals with multiple yellow flags may still proceed.
