Create a Test Billing Account

This page describes how to create Test Billing Accounts with 100% discounted usage for testing your Cloud Marketplace products.

When you add a Cloud Billing account as a Test Billing Account for your Cloud Marketplace products, you enable it as a Test Billing Account across all of your Cloud Marketplace products, and you can continue to use it across all of the products that you offer on Cloud Marketplace.

Create a Test Billing Account

To create a Test Billing Account, follow these steps:

  1. On the Partner reports page, under Configure Test Billing Accounts, click Add Test Billing Account to add your Cloud Billing account as a Test Billing Account.

    Open the Reports page

  2. Click Save to save your Cloud Billing account as a Test Billing Account.

After you've saved your Cloud Billing account as a Test Billing Account, a status icon appears that notifies you that your Test Billing Account isn't ready for testing usage yet. You don't need to take any action while your Cloud Billing account is automatically prepared for usage as a Test Billing Account.

When your Test Billing Account finishes processing, its status icon changes to indicate that it is now ready to use for testing your products. To check if the status icon has changed, you must reload the page.
