Snowflake Marketplace

Snowflake Marketplace works differently from the hyperscaler marketplaces: what you sell is a data product or an application, your customers are called consumers, and they are identified by a Snowflake account identifier rather than a cloud account or tenant ID. Becoming a provider is a prerequisite you complete in Snowflake before Suger is involved — you need a full Snowflake account (trial and reader accounts cannot list), the ACCOUNTADMIN role or a role with provider privileges, and the accepted Provider and Consumer Terms.

There is one more step here that the other marketplaces do not have: a provider profile representing your company must exist before you can publish any paid listing. Suger connects to your Snowflake account with key-pair authentication, then manages listings, pricing plans, private offers, usage reporting, and revenue from the console.

The path to your first Snowflake sale

1. Integration — confirm your account qualifies as a provider, generate a key pair, and connect with your account, user, and private key.
2. Provider Profile — the company identity consumers see, including the consumer contact address Snowflake expects you to answer within 24 hours.
3. Pricing Plan — usage-based and subscription-based plans, and the per-query, monthly-fee, and billable-event charging options behind them.
4. List Product — create the listing in Provider Studio and decide whether it is public on the Marketplace or shared with specified consumers only.
5. Create Private Offer — discount a published pricing plan for one consumer, or charge a flat one-time contract value with optional installments.

After a consumer subscribes

• Usage Metering Upload — report consumption for many entitlements at once by uploading a CSV, with a validation preview before anything is submitted.
• Revenue — how Suger joins Snowflake’s invoice and disbursement provider views by invoice number so billed amounts, fees, and payouts line up with your other channels.
