OS has produced a new tiering structure for our Partners. This enables closer collaboration with OS in order to benefit from higher levels of engagement and rewards. It also provides clarity on the support and services Partners can expect to receive, based on your tier. The structure consists of three tiers; Strategic, Premium, and Associate.
OS Partner tiers explained

Our tiered membership
Associate
We work together to help customers extract the value of our word class location data through innovative geospatial services and solutions.
Premium
We share OS Know-How with our Partners, helping them to grow their commercial offer whilst feeding back into the OS product and development roadmap too.
Strategic
We’re strategically important to each other and collaborate closely to be world leaders in geospatial services; creating location insight for positive impact.
For OS Licensed Partners working towards tiered level membership, we support a growing number of customers who share our passion for location insight, enabling them to self-serve from a range of content designed to support their projects, hobbies, and interests.
