Manage HP Amplify compensation - base rates, accelerators, the SuperPower Booster and Growth Plays - in one dashboard.
HP Amplify’s Power Accelerators run on four separate quarterly targets - Personal Systems HW, Print HW, Peripherals/Poly and Services - across HP’s three business units (Print, PC and Poly). Clear two of the four and the SuperPower Booster starts paying on top; drop a target and you drop a level. Rebates-On tracks your base rate, your accelerator attainment and your Booster level from your perspective, so you see exactly what you’re owed, what to do to earn more, and where HP rebate dollars are slipping away.

What is the HP Amplify Partner Program?
HP Amplify is HP Inc.’s worldwide partner program. The current commercial reseller guide is Version 13.0, effective 1 May to 31 October 2026. You join on one of two mutually exclusive compensation tracks - Synergy or Power - and your track sets the base rate underneath everything else. Power is where the larger rebate dollars sit, including full SuperPower Booster participation.
Two ideas drive it. First, your track sets your economics: Synergy is the entry track, tiered by revenue, while Power carries a flat base rate gated on scale and capability and unlocks full SuperPower Booster participation and Growth Play compensation. The two are mutually exclusive - a partner who qualifies for Power Compensation is not paid on the Synergy base offers. Second, the money stacks in three layers: a quarterly base rate set by your track, accelerators that pay when you clear your quarterly targets, and the SuperPower Booster on top when you clear multiple accelerator targets at once. Some offers also carry reporting gates - Supplies compensation, for one, requires you to report your Supplies segment share - so a reporting gap can cost you a payout the sales number says you earned.
The shape of HP Amplify held - the arithmetic underneath it moved.
HP Amplify compensation stacks in three layers: a quarterly base rate set by your track, Power Accelerators that pay on attainment across four separate quarterly targets (Personal Systems HW, Print HW, Peripherals/Poly and Services), and the SuperPower Booster on top when you clear at least two of those four. That structure is stable. What changed for H2 FY26 is the money underneath it.
- The compensation stacks in three layers. A quarterly base rate set by your track sits underneath. Power Accelerators pay on top when you clear your quarterly targets, and pay nothing below the attainment floor. The SuperPower Booster pays quarterly on top of that, in addition to accelerator compensation. The Booster is the smallest of the three layers, not the framework.
- The Booster has two levels, and it starts at two targets. There are four accelerator targets: Personal Systems HW, Print HW, Peripherals/Poly and Services. Clear at least two of the four and the Booster pays at level 1. Clear at least three and it pays at level 2. Dropping a target moves you down a level across the qualifying portfolio; dropping below two stops the Booster.
- The payment basis moved for H2 FY26. HP is moving the basis on which benefits are calculated from Net Distributor Price to UTNET, across base compensation, accelerators, Online, Specializations and Growth Plays, and the accelerator uplifts were re-cut. TNET is the list price minus the total discount on each transaction, calculated at transaction level. Same shape, different arithmetic - which is exactly the kind of change that silently breaks a spreadsheet forecast.
- Two Growth Plays, checked before the quarter starts. The Growth Plays are Poly Video Collaboration and AI Workstation. They are not the same thing as Specializations, which are a separate set of offers. Eligibility is assessed at a fixed checkpoint: you must meet all of a Play’s requirements at least 30 days before the quarter begins.
- Membership segments re-set twice a year, not once. HP re-sets membership segments each fiscal half, on 1 May and 1 November, against a rolling four-quarter revenue look-back. Partners cannot change levels during a membership period, so a missed threshold is fixed until the next segment date.

Where HP partners leave rebate money on the table.
HP partners lose the most rebate dollars across the four accelerator targets, against quarterly targets recomputed from their own prior-year sales, at the semi-annual segment date, on reporting gates, at the Growth Play checkpoint, on account types that are not eligible for deal registration, and at the quarter boundary. Each is a place a quote looks profitable but the rebate never fully lands - and each is something software can watch that a spreadsheet cannot.

The whole HP Amplify program logic, maintained for you.
Rebates-On carries the full HP Amplify program logic so you skip the partner-email firehose. One dashboard shows your base rate, your attainment against all four accelerator targets, your SuperPower Booster level, every Growth Play and certification checkpoint, and an order simulator that shows what one more booking is worth toward a target.
- See your SuperPower Booster position across the four accelerator targets - Personal Systems HW, Print HW, Peripherals/Poly and Services - with attainment against each target and how close you are to the next Booster level.
- Track your accelerator attainment by category, so you know which lines are lifting your base rate and which are about to fall back below the floor.
- Watch every Growth Play, certification and capability that feeds your eligibility and your Play-specific compensation, with each checkpoint flagged before it passes.
- Reconcile what HP paid against what you booked, offer by offer, so a short payment does not pass unnoticed.
- Catch the deadlines that forfeit rebate dollars - the 1 May and 1 November segment dates, the 30-day Growth Play checkpoint, promo claim windows - with alerts while you can still act.
- Model the next move with the order simulator: what one more booking is worth toward crossing an accelerator target or moving up a Booster level.
Your standing is set by your track - and your segment is fixed until the next fiscal half.
Under HP Amplify, your track sets your standing. You qualify for Synergy by clearing the membership revenue threshold in any one category, and earn Power by meeting higher thresholds plus capability requirements. The two tracks are mutually exclusive. Membership segments re-set each fiscal half, on 1 May and 1 November, against a rolling four-quarter revenue look-back.
-
Higher revenue thresholds plus capability requirements. Carries a flat base rate, full SuperPower Booster participation and Growth Play access. Partners who qualify for Power Compensation are excluded from the Synergy base offers.
-
Tiered by revenue. Qualified by clearing the membership revenue threshold in any one category (Personal Systems, Print, Poly or Supplies). Lower investment, fewer requirements, fewer offers.
Certifications sit inside the capability requirements that gate the Power track and Growth Play compensation, and a lapse can quietly drop both. Growth Play eligibility in particular is assessed at a fixed checkpoint 30 days before each quarter begins, so a credential that expires inside that window costs you the whole following quarter, with no way to fix it after the fact. Keeping certifications in force is one of the most direct ways to protect your track and your compensation - and exactly what the Rebates-On certifications module is built to watch.
How Rebates-On helps you avoid missed HP Amplify rebates.
Rebates-On turns the things that leak HP rebate dollars into things you can see and act on: it surfaces your attainment across all four accelerator targets before a quarter closes wrong, catches every Growth Play and certification before the checkpoint passes, flags the semi-annual segment date and every claim window, and reconciles what HP actually paid against what you earned.
- No more silent target misses. Every accelerator target’s attainment in one place, with alerts when you’re one target short of the next Booster level or about to slip below the attainment floor.
- No more surprise downgrades. The semi-annual membership look-back tracked against your revenue - so you don’t spend a fiscal half locked at the lower segment.
- No more certification surprises. Expiring certs and Growth Play credentials flagged before the 30-day checkpoint passes and costs you the next quarter’s Play compensation.
- An HP number finance can rely on. Forecast your base, accelerator and Booster income, then reconcile what HP actually paid - across categories, Growth Plays and claims - against what you earned.
