Configure Managed Service offer listing details

  • Article

The information you provide on the Offer listing page of Partner Center will be displayed on Azure Marketplace. This includes your offer name, description, media, and other marketing assets.

Note

If your offer is in a language other than English, the offer listing can be in that language, but the description must begin or end with the English phrase "This service is available in <language of your offer content>". You can also provide supporting documents in a language that's different from the one used in the offer listing details.

On the Offer listing page in Partner Center, provide the information described below. To learn more about the listing details for your Managed Service offer, review Plan a Managed Service offer.
