Create a private offer for a customer

The following articles explain how to create and publish a new private offer. If you're creating a private offer to replace an active one, visit Modify a published offer to learn about replacement options.

Before you begin

  • Your product must be integrated with and listed on Cloud Marketplace.

  • You must have the customer's Cloud Billing account ID. If you don't have the ID, request it from your customer.

  • For the Google Cloud project where you manage your products, you must have the following Identity and Access Management (IAM) role(s):

    • Project Editor (roles/editor) OR
    • Commerce Producer Viewer (roles/commerceproducer.viewer) AND Commerce Price Management Private Offers Admin (roles/commercepricemanagement.privateOffersAdmin)

    If you don't have the roles, request access from a Project Owner (roles/owner). For information about managing your team's access, see Configure access control for creating and managing private offers in Producer Portal.

  • If you want to add a custom end user license agreement (EULA) to your private offer, you must also have the Commerce Price Management Private Offers Admin (roles/commercepricemanagement.privateOffersAdmin) role, or equivalent permissions.

  • For SaaS products, ensure that you've set up entitlements to track usage. For steps, visit Configure your SaaS product's backend for private offers.
