## Selling Authorizations
<a name="resale-authorizations"></a>

Selling authorizations allow you to authorize channel partners to resell your products through their own storefronts or directly to their buyers via Channel Partner Private Offers (CPPO).

### To view selling authorizations
<a name="resale-authorizations-view"></a>

1. In your connected account, choose **Selling Authorizations**.

1. The list displays:
   + Authorization ID
   + Partner name and AWS Account ID
   + Product name
   + Status (Active, Expired, Revoked)
   + Authorization date
   + Expiration date

### To create a selling authorization
<a name="resale-authorizations-create"></a>

1. Choose **Create Authorization**.

1. Complete the form:
   + **Partner AWS Account ID** - The reseller's 12-digit AWS account ID
   + **Product** - Select the product to authorize for resale
   + **Pricing** - Set the wholesale price or discount for the partner
   + **Duration** - How long the authorization is valid
   + **Terms** - Any additional resale terms or restrictions

1. Choose **Create**.

The partner receives notification and can begin creating CPPOs for your product.

### Managing authorizations
<a name="resale-authorizations-managing"></a>
+ **Revoke** - Cancel an active authorization. The partner can no longer create new CPPOs, but existing agreements remain active.
+ **Extend** - Extend the expiration date of an authorization.
+ **Edit** - Modify pricing or terms (applies to future CPPOs only).

### Notes
<a name="resale-authorizations-notes"></a>
+ Selling authorizations are managed through the AWS Marketplace Catalog API. Ensure your connected account has the required permissions.
+ For more information about how CPPO works, see [Channel Partner Private Offers](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/marketplace/latest/userguide/channel-partner-offers.html) in the AWS Marketplace Seller Guide.
