# User License and Experience Cloud Template Support for Partner Cloud

Partner Cloud provides channel managers and partners with productivity features that help everyone work together. To gain access to Partner Cloud features, you must purchase the required licenses for each feature and your partner site must be built using Experience Cloud templates that support those features. Learn more about license requirements and feature availability in templates.

### Required Editions

You must have at least one Partner Cloud add-on license.</td></tr><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Available for partners in supported Experience Cloud sites, accessed through Lightning Experience in <strong>Enterprise</strong>, <strong>Performance</strong>, <strong>Unlimited</strong>, <strong>Developer</strong> Editions with Sales Cloud or Service Cloud. A Partner Cloud add-on license is required for each partner user.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Partner Cloud Add-On Licenses

These Experience Cloud licenses provide access to Partner Cloud:

- Partner Community license
- Partner Community Login license
- Channel Account license

You must have at least one Partner Cloud license to configure Partner Cloud. An additional Partner Cloud license is required for each partner user. For some features, add-on licenses are also required. The table in this topic lists those requirements.

Some Partner Cloud features are available to customers still using legacy partner portal licenses. We recommend [upgrading legacy partner portal license users to a comparable Experience Cloud license](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.networks_license_upgrade_eligible.htm&type=5&language=en_US).

## Partner Cloud-Supported Experience Cloud Templates

Partners access Partner Cloud features from Experience Cloud sites, which are each built on an Experience Cloud site template. Vendors can choose from various templates that support Partner Cloud features.

The Partner Central template, for example, comes configured with several channel sales workflows set up for you. Other templates support Partner Cloud features but can require more configuration by your Salesforce admin and Experience Cloud site developer.
