Benefits of making my software or services available in the Microsoft commercial marketplace
The commercial marketplace is a starting point for Go-To-Market collaboration and enablement with sales channels and Marketplace Rewards. The websites and in-product experiences give your products visibility to millions of customers who are seeking solutions like yours. You don't even need to build or buy the commerce capabilities.
The commercial marketplace is available in 141 regions, on a per-plan basis.
Microsoft manages tax payment in many countries/regions, and Microsoft provides access to our global channel network of resellers. You can use a customer's Microsoft Customer Agreement or Enterprise Agreement to sell to organizations without having to create a new buying relationship.
Strategically speaking, Microsoft will have more visibility into your pipeline, current customers and future geo expansion. Being IP Co-Sell Eligible results in your solution receiving an elevated level of attention from Microsoft’s sellers, as your sales contributes to their Azure sales targets. Your success becomes their success.
