Software subscriptions made in AWS Marketplace are governed by terms negotiated between a customer and ISV or Consulting Partner. Use of AWS Marketplace is governed by your AWS Customer Agreement or other agreement governing your use of AWS services. For more information, please visit: https://aws.amazon.com/agreement/ or https://aws.amazon.com/pricing/enterprise.
The AWS account ID you use will depend on who will be using the software within your organization. Keep in mind that:
If your AWS account is linked to your payer account, you can accept an offer from that linked account. You don’t need to use the payer account unless you want all the linked accounts to be bound by the offer.
For more information, see AWS Organizations and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)
Make sure to review your payment and tax settings to ensure they are current and:
Confirm that your payment method supports paying the entire cost. To verify your payment method, open the Billing and Cost Management console.
If your company qualifies for a tax exemption, verify your tax settings in the AWS Management Console.
If you are preparing to purchase a SaaS or AMI solution with a flexible payment schedule, make sure you have invoicing, rather than credit card billing, in place before you accept the offer.
Yes. Using Purchase Order Management for SaaS contracts, you can enter your purchase order number when transacting in AWS Marketplace. Purchase order numbers entered in AWS Marketplace show on the relevant AWS invoices and in the AWS Purchase Order Management Console. For other AWS Marketplace product types other than SaaS contracts, you can add a blanket purchase order number to your AWS Marketplace invoices in the AWS Purchase Order Management Console. Refer to the AWS Documentation to learn more about Purchase Order Management for SaaS Contracts.
