Terreau STRATA ESG
Two tracks, two contracts, never mixed.
Terreau STRATA ESG is the ESG Optimizer partner programme.
It has two tracks, each with its own contract, its own terms and its own page. One rule holds them: they are never mixed.
In short
How do you become a STRATA ESG partner?
Through Terreau STRATA ESG, the ESG Optimizer partner programme. It has two tracks, each with its own contract, its own terms and its own page. One rule holds them: they are never mixed. The programme's entry page, esg-optimizer.fr/partenaires, helps you choose yours.
Two tracks
Two ways to work with us.
Reseller firm
€35 to €27
You produce your clients' sustainability file yourself with the tool, and you bill your fees. The PDF report and the Word document come out in your firm's colours.
You pay for the tool per active client file per month, excluding VAT, on a published tapering grid, dedicated and independent from the Pro plan.
The client relationship is yours, end to end: we do not write to your clients.

20%
You know companies that need the tool, and you introduce them to us. You make the introduction: you do not sell and you do not negotiate.
You receive 20% of the amount excluding tax actually collected from the referred client, all plans included, for as long as that client pays.
Subscriptions, one-off offers and quoted services fall under the same base. The day that client stops paying, the commission stops. We serve the company directly, and we hold the relationship.

Not sure which one?
The programme's entry page, on ESG Optimizer, asks you two questions and points you to the track that fits your work.
Reseller firm
Usage-based pricing, tapering with volume.
Amount per active client file, per month, in euros excluding VAT.
The tier is set by the number of active client files over the calendar year. A file is active in a given month as soon as at least one production operation is recorded in it that month: drafting a section, producing or updating a report, uploading or approving a supporting document. Simply viewing does not count, and neither does a file opened then left empty.
1 to 50 files
€35
Detail : Dedicated partner grid, independent from the Pro plan.
51 to 150 files
€32
Detail : Moving up a tier is automatic and applies to the current year's billing, with no amendment to sign.
151 to 300 files
€29
Detail : The grid reads both ways: a year in which the portfolio shrinks moves the rate back to the matching tier.
301 files and more
€27
Detail : Published floor of the grid.
The per file rate adds to the platform base, an annual subscription whose amount is given when we review your file. Fixed whatever the number of files, it covers the partitioned multi-client space, the white label, your team's access and the documented method. Prices exclude VAT. The publisher is under the French VAT franchise scheme: no VAT is charged or recoverable at this date. Two notices stay on deliverables even under your brand, the automated assistance notice required by article 50 of the EU AI Act, and the indicative nature of the result. Everything else is yours.

And when you sign, the file holds.
An accountant or a consultant who signs a sustainability deliverable puts their name on it.
That is the constraint nobody talks about, and it is the one that decides. Three properties of the file answer that risk directly.
Every figure stays attached to its document
If your client is questioned on a value two years later, the document, its version and the method then in force are still there. You are not defending from memory.
The calculation replays identically
Same data, same result. A deliverable you cannot reproduce is not an asset for your firm, it is an exposure.
What is missing is flagged as missing
Absent data is never quietly filled in with an assumption. You know what you are signing, and what you are not.
Getting started as a reseller firm
Four steps to get started.
Create the account
On esg-optimizer.fr, like any user. The first diagnostic is offered on sign up, no card required.
Activate partner access
An application, a conversation with us, and the partner space opens with the dedicated grid.
Set up your brand
Logo, colours, signature block. Deliverables carry your identity from the next file onwards.
Wire it into your engagements
Pre-audit before the quote, guided collection for clients starting from scratch, co-branded deliverables at the end.
Recommendation
You tell a colleague about it
The programme spreads by word of mouth, and that is as it should be. Here is exactly what that produces, and what it does not.
They apply themselves
Your colleague submits their own application, in the track that fits them. They contract directly with STRATA ESG, under their own agreement.
They can say who told them
The application form asks how they heard of the programme. If they name you, we note it, to know where our partners come from and to thank you. Nothing else.
Nobody earns on the line below
You receive nothing on what your colleague pays, on what they bring in, or on the clients they serve. Nor will they receive anything on those they recommend in turn.
No payment is made for recruitment: an organisation that joins the programme, in either track, produces no commission for whoever introduced it, neither on what it pays nor on what it brings in.
A network that pays for recruiting recruiters ends up living off recruitment, not off the companies it serves. That is the definition of a multi level structure, and we want none of it at any level.
Reciprocity
When we send a company your way
Reciprocity is not a volume promise. It is a written rule, which we apply as written and which you can hold us to.
We point a company to a partner when it asks for what we do not do: support from a person, work outside the software, or a professional of its choosing. A company that wants to use the tool on its own is served by us, and we do not steer it elsewhere.
The order in which we suggest a partner
- The partner already supporting that company, if there is one: we never cut an existing relationship.
- Among the others, active partners first, in the sense of the published definition. Reciprocity starts with those who pass work on.
- If still tied, the declared fit: sector, size, country.
- If still tied, the partner who was suggested least recently.
What is promised
Applying this rule as written, suggesting at most two names to the company, which chooses, and telling a partner why they were suggested.
What is not
No volume, no frequency, no exclusivity, and nothing for those who have passed nothing on: a partner who has never passed work on is only suggested when no suitable active partner exists. We take nothing on an assignment we point to and we do not step into the relationship.
Questions about the programme
What we are asked before people apply.
- Why two tracks, and not a single partner offer?
- Because introducing a company and producing its file are two different jobs. Mixing them means promising one what belongs to the other, and that is what makes most partner programmes unreadable. Each track therefore has its own page, kit, agreement and form, and no document describes them together.
- Can I sign up to both tracks at once?
- No. An organisation is in one track at a time, under that track's agreement. If your activity changes, you change track, in writing, and the other track's agreement replaces yours going forward. What was earned under the first remains earned.
- Does the name Terreau STRATA ESG commit anyone to anything?
- No. It names the programme, nothing more: not a mandate, not a territory, not a distribution network under competition law, not an accreditation. What commits you, and what commits us, is written in your track's agreement.
- Do you take anything when you send a company our way?
- Nothing. When a company asks us for support we do not provide and we suggest your name, the assignment is yours, billed by you, with no share for us. We only ask you to tell us, in due course, whether an assignment came out of it.
Test it on a real report, anonymised if you prefer.
