An Agent is not simply someone who talks about Knomart. The role connects merchants with the system: finding businesses, helping them get started, implementing the relevant tools and supporting the merchants they sign.
The Agent works on the merchant side
Members use Knomart to find opportunities, develop skills and build their reputation. Agents work in the other direction. They go into the market and help businesses adopt Knomart so those businesses can operate digitally and create opportunities for members.
What an Agent actually does
- Finds merchants: identifies businesses that can benefit from Knomart.
- Explains the system: helps a merchant understand what Knomart can do for the business.
- Signs merchants: brings businesses into the Knomart ecosystem.
- Implements the system: helps the merchant get set up and use the relevant Knomart tools.
- Supports the merchant: remains the first point of support for the merchants they sign.
The Agent is not a salesperson only
The role continues after a merchant says yes. The Agent owns the relationship and supports the merchant, while technical issues can be escalated from the Agent to Knomart.
This creates a simple support path: merchant → Agent → Knomart. The Agent is therefore responsible for the day-to-day relationship with the merchant rather than handing the business off immediately after signup.
There is one Agent category
The model does not use multiple personal Agent tiers. Progression runs from Agent into the Partner programme rather than through a ladder of Agent levels.
Certification is also practical. The model requires an Agent to pass the exams and sign one real merchant. Watching training alone does not complete the journey.
How the Agent is paid
The Agent earns a flat 50% of whatever the merchant pays, every month, for as long as the merchant stays. The Agent also keeps the merchant's setup fee in full.
For a free merchant, the Agent earns the $10 setup fee and no recurring subscription income until that merchant upgrades. The signing Agent keeps the claim if the merchant upgrades later.
The bigger purpose
An Agent helps create the supply side of the network. More active merchants mean more businesses using Knomart, more transactions on the platform and more potential opportunities for members.
The job is not simply to sell software. It is to find businesses, help them adopt Knomart, support them and build a lasting merchant relationship.
