Quick Start
New to Suger? This is the shortest path from signing up to seeing your first offer in the console. The hands-on work adds up to roughly 30 minutes, but two things are outside your control: Suger has to approve your organization before anything else can start, and publishing a new marketplace listing adds weeks of cloud-provider review. Follow the checklist top to bottom; each step links to the full guide.
Hands-on time vs. waiting
Hands-on is work you do in the console. Waiting is out of your hands — start the gated steps early and run the rest in parallel.
| # | Step | Who does it | Hands-on | Then you wait |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1–2 | Create your account and organization, then get it approved | You, then Suger Support | ~10 min | Usually within 1 business day, up to 2 |
| 3 | Connect your first cloud marketplace | You, with a cloud admin | ~20 min | — |
| 4 | Add your first product | You | ~1–2 hrs to build a new listing; minutes to import an existing one | New listing: ~2 weeks (AWS, Azure) or ~3 weeks (GCP) of provider review. Importing an existing listing: ~5 days to update fulfillment URLs |
| 5 | Create your first offer | You | Minutes | Publishing takes up to 15 minutes; GCP SaaS offers also need a manual approval unless you have enabled automatic offer approval |
| 6 | Track it in the console | You | — | — |
The path from signup to your first offer
1. Create your account and organization
Sign up, turn on multi-factor authentication, and create your organization. Everyone on your team works inside one organization. → Account
2. Get your organization approved
3. Connect your first cloud marketplace
Link the cloud marketplace you sell through (AWS, Azure, GCP, and more). This is the real first setup task, and it unlocks products, offers, and billing. → Connect your first cloud marketplace
4. Add your first product
A product is your marketplace listing. Importing a listing you have already published takes minutes. Building and submitting a new listing takes about 1–2 hours of your time, and then the cloud provider reviews it — roughly 2 weeks on AWS and Azure, 3 weeks on GCP. Don’t tie a deal date to that review. → Products · Integration Timeline
5. Create your first offer
An offer is how a buyer purchases your product — a self-serve public offer or a negotiated private offer. Create a private offer to make your first deal. → Private Offers · Direct Sales with Suger
6. Track it in the console
Watch the deal, revenue, and time-sensitive tasks from the Home dashboard, and learn where everything lives. → Home Dashboard · Navigate the Suger Console
New to the terms?
If words like offer, entitlement, private offer, or metering are new, skim the Key Terms glossary first — it defines the vocabulary the rest of the docs use.
