MACC program

The Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) program is for transactable offers that are published to the commercial marketplace. Marketplace purchases of transactable offers that are enrolled in this program contribute towards an organization’s Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment. Marketplace purchases that contribute towards a customer’s Microsoft Azure consumption commitment are limited to Azure benefit-eligible offers and can only be used to purchase solutions that are primarily platformed on, or extend Microsoft cloud products or infrastructure.

Requirements for an offer to be enrolled in MACC

An offer must meet the following requirements to be enrolled in the MACC program:

• Transactable with a pricing plan greater than $0

  Note

  Free and BYOL (bring your own license) offers are NOT considered transactable.

• Azure IP Co-sell incentivized
• Published live in the commercial marketplace

How to see if your offer is enrolled in the MACC program

2. On the Home page, select the Marketplace offers tile.

   

3. On the Marketplace offers page, select the offer you want to see.
