You can now offer Terraform Kubernetes apps through Google Cloud Marketplace with usage-based pricing, in which customers pay for your app based on their usage of Google Kubernetes Engine resources, such as vCPUs, GPUs, TPUs, or memory. To set up usage-based pricing for your Terraform Kubernetes apps, see Pricing models for Terraform Kubernetes apps. For information about how pricing works for Google Kubernetes Engine resources, see Google Kubernetes Engine pricing.

We've updated the Cloud Commerce Procurement API's GET Account resource to provide the reseller parent Cloud Billing account ID for transactions associated with resold Cloud Billing accounts. For transactions on direct Cloud Billing accounts, no value is returned for the reseller parent Cloud Billing account id. For details, see the Cloud Commerce Procurement API documentation.

The Detailed Disbursements and Customer Incremental Insights ISV reports are now available in BigQuery. These reports leverage BigQuery's out-of-the-box connectors to aggregate your Google Cloud Marketplace data with other data sources for your analysis, reporting, and data visualization needs.

Learn how to enable these new reports from the Producer Portal.

Google Cloud Marketplace has introduced:

• An improved revenue share program for new Google Cloud Marketplace deals.
• Four new Private Offer deal types that you can select when you create an offer:
  • New
  • Migration
  • Native renewal
  • Channel shift

For more information, see the Vendor Net Revenue Schedule. This revenue share program is only available to eligible Google Cloud Build partners and their respective Cloud Marketplace product listings. For eligibility criteria, see Vendor Net Revenue Schedule requirements.

To improve data quality, we've updated the data source for the domain field in the detailed disbursement and insights reports.

We've made the following changes to Cloud Marketplace partner reports:

• We've added a new field, extraordinary_payment_note, to the detailed disbursement report.
• If an extraordinary payment is issued, the disbursements report includes a new row that contains information about it, including metadata to track the payment.
• The customer insights report includes two new fields, marketplace_fee_amount and marketplace_fee_percent`.

You can now create custom private offers with flexible payment options, including a duration of up to 5 years, with an annual ratable commit drawdown schedule, if applicable. For more information about creating custom private offers, see Set up your offer's pricing.

We've added a new field, cancellation_reason, on the Entitlement resource that provides context around why an entitlement was cancelled.

We've added a new field, wholesale_charges, to Detailed Disbursements reports and Customer Insights reports for Cloud Marketplace.

You can now create multiple orders for the same product with flat fee pricing. This feature is available in Preview. For more information about creating multiple orders, see Create multiple orders of the same product.

We've made the following updates to the the provider Entitlement resource:

• A new field called new_offer_start_time is populated with the start time of an offer that's scheduled to start in the future. This field works the same way as the field in the Pub/Sub messages.
• The existing field named new_offer_end_time is now also populated when an offer with a specified end date activates. The field is now empty only if the offer was created with a term instead of a specified end date, or if there is no upcoming offer.

We've made the following changes to Cloud Marketplace reports:

• A new field, offer_title, has been added to the Detailed disbursements report and the Customer Insights report.
• The entitlement_id field from the Detailed disbursements report is now also available in the Customer Insights report.

If you've turned on Marketplace reports in Producer Portal, you now receive proactive email notifications from Google when reports are delayed, have inaccurate data, or have been regenerated. For steps to set up reports and receive these notifications, see Set up to receive reports.

When you create a new private offer, or replace an existing private offer, you select a payment frequency for how your customer is charged. This can be monthly, quarterly, annually, or custom. For more information, visit Payment frequency for private offers.

You can now access Detailed disbursements reports with detailed breakdowns of the amount paid to you, for accounting and financial reconciliation purposes. For details, see Detailed disbursements reports.

Beginning in October 2023, Google Cloud Marketplace supports a new transaction model, the agency model. For details about the agency model and which transactions it applies to, see the transaction models documentation.

Your Customer Insights reports contain a new field, transaction_type. For more details, see the field's documentation.

We've made the following improvements to reports for Cloud Marketplace products:

• We've added a solution_name column to Customer Insights reports, which contains the title of the listing that the SKU charge corresponds to. You can use this information to differentiate between identically-named SKUs from different product listings. For more information, visit the Customer Insights report documentation.

• We've added a Postpay Credits column to Charges and Usage reports, and a postpay_credits column to Daily Insights reports and Monthly Insights reports. These columns indicate, as a number less than or equal to 0, how much of the amount charged was offset by commitment credits purchased through a private offer with a postpay payment schedule. These applied credits reduce the amount disbursed to you for the charges that they're applied to, as the payout comes from the charge for the commitment SKU. For more information, visit the Charges and Usage report documentation.

We've redesigned the Private Offers experience to improve offer creation and management, including the following changes:

• You can fill in information in any order, instead of having to enter it all at once.
• We've added sectional cards with icons that show completion status, so that you can get a high-level overview of an offer from a single page.
• We've added a summary panel showing key changes to deals.
• We've made improvements to increase the product's adaptability and usability.

Independent software vendors (ISVs) offering their products through Cloud Marketplace can now offer discounts for reseller partners who sell their products to customers. For details, see Configure discounts for resellers and Request a reseller discount from an ISV.

When you create or amend a prepay private offer with the committed use discounts (CUDs) pricing model, you can choose whether unused commitment expires or rolls over between installments of the offer. You can also choose to add one-time credits that you sponsor to specific installments. For more information, visit Set up your offer's pricing.

As part of a limited Preview program, you can turn on automatic offer approval for software as a service (SaaS) products. This enables you to schedule specific start dates for new private offers, or amendments to existing private offers.

You now receive an ENTITLEMENT_OFFER_ACCEPTED Pub/Sub message when a customer accepts a private offer. For details, refer to List of event types for account tasks.

You can download private offers as PDFs. Offers can be saved at any point in the offer process and can include internal notes and the EULA for the offer.

After your organization enrolls in Partner Advantage portal, you can start integrating your products with Google Cloud Marketplace and preparing to publish them at the same time that your organization completes the process of becoming an approved Google Cloud Build partner.

When you create a private offer for a customer, the offer expires at 11:45 PM US and Canadian Pacific Time (UTC-8) on the offer acceptance deadline, instead of 12:00 AM UTC-8.

You can now provide Private Offers with more granular discounts on specific usage metrics to your customers by enabling metric discounts.

Private Offers, version 2, is now generally available. Customize quotes for specific customers, including offering flat fee, usage, and installment discount types.

To get started, see Choosing your private offer pricing

Manage your private offers, including approving an offer, by using the Private Offers page.
