Background
AllPoints Fibre Networks (APFN) has rolled out a new cashback incentive for partners ordering Sky Business Wholesale Ethernet services through aquila, as the company pushes to boost uptake of its high-bandwidth connections.
Partners can now earn up to £1,500 cashback on qualifying 10Gb bearer orders and up to £500 on 1Gb bearer orders. The offer covers eligible three-year and five-year terms and applies across both the Sky Business Wholesale and ITS network footprints. It runs exclusively for APFN partners until 31 December 2026.
The scheme also marks the first time multi-gig Ethernet has been available on the aquila platform, giving partners a single point of access to enterprise-grade connectivity ranging from 1Gb to 10Gb, without needing to build their own infrastructure.
APFN says the setup gives partners room to grow alongside their customers. A business that only needs 1Gb today can still order on a 10Gb bearer, making it far easier to scale up bandwidth later without lengthy downtime or the risk of losing the customer altogether.
Sonia Hanson, Head of Product at AllPoints Fibre Networks, said the company wants partners to have that headroom as customer demand increases. She added that the cashback offer rewards partners directly for meeting rising bandwidth needs, from 1Gb up to 10Gb, without them having to fund their own network infrastructure.
