Amazon AWS Marketplace and SaaS Seller Guide

1. What is AWS Marketplace
AWS Marketplace enables qualified sellers to market and sell their software to AWS customers (customers). AWS Marketplace is an online software store that helps customers find, buy, and immediately start using the software and services that run on AWS. AWS Marketplace is designed for Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), Value-Added Resellers (VARs), and Systems Integrators (SIs) who have software products they want to offer to customers in the cloud. Sellers use AWS Marketplace to be up and running quickly and to offer their software products to customers around the world.

*  Marketing & New Users: Sellers can take advantage of the Management Portal to better build and analyze their business, while using features such as Free Trials to drive marketing activities and customer adoption.
*  Simplified Delivery: Deliver your software as an easy to build Amazon Machine Image (AMI) or Software as a Service (SaaS) listing and take advantage of our 1-click deployment feature. Enable customers to launch your software in minutes pre-configured to run on AWS.
*  Billing: Leave the metering, billing, collections, and disbursement of payments to AWS – focus on marketing and selling your software.

2. Becoming an AWS Marketplace Seller
If you are interested in selling your software on AWS Marketplace, review the requirements, and then follow the steps to register as a seller. There are different registration requirements based on where you reside and what type of products you want to list. To register as a seller on AWS Marketplace, you can use an existing AWS account or create a new account. All AWS Marketplace interactions will be tied to the AWS account you choose.
