About Technology Program
The Adobe Technology Partner Program is the new name for what was formerly known as the Adobe Exchange Partner Program for the Experience Cloud.

Partners of Adobe build these applications and integrations, and then list them on the Adobe Exchange Marketplace. Partners in the Technology Partner Program can join at different partner levels depending on what works best for them and receive numerous benefits based on partner level.
Details about benefits can be found by level here. Benefits range from marketing to technical and enablement, support, and sales.

Once you have joined the Technology Partner Program as a Silver level or above partner, you can sign into the Benefits Center and review the catalog of a la carte benefits.
The Partner Success Specialist benefit is available for purchase to Gold or Platinum level partners. The program manager will act as a single point of contact for partners to use for all Technology Partner Program needs. The Partner Success Specialist will guide and support partners by applying program best practices, executing go-to-market deliverables, communicating the latest Adobe news, helping with account matching via Crossbeam, providing support with contracts and renewals, and more.
Crossbeam is software that assists with account mapping between a partner and Adobe. It is a powerful tool used in partnerships to identify prospective customers and see the potential market available within partner ecosystems. Account matching via Crossbeam is a base, Gold level benefit.
The Technology Partner Program follows a program year model. Each program year starts March 1 and ends February 28. If you join mid-way through the program year, your membership fee will be prorated based on the program year end date. Partner membership and subscription add-on benefits (EX: Premium Technical Integration Consulting) are billed annually. Any additional marketing deliverable benefits will be billed at the time of purchase.
Yes, there are limited a la carte benefits available to Silver Partners. Gold and Platinum Partners have access to a more extensive catalog of a la carte benefits.

Technical
Sandbox access is subject to availability and varies by partnership level.
The integration team will provide guidance, support, and best practices to guide you as you build your integration with the Adobe Experience Cloud. Support is only given to Adobe Technology partners and varies by partner level. Review technical benefits on Benefits page.
The Application Assurance program was created to highlight those partners that have taken the extra steps to have the Adobe team review their integration and then incorporate feedback on best practices and implement those improvements. For our Adobe customers, they will have the added confidence in an integration that the Adobe team has thoroughly reviewed and approved. There is a cost for this program annually, as each year the integration will need to go through a full review to continue to receive the App Assurance badge on the marketplace.
