💰 AWS Marketplace Update: Sellers Can Now Receive Disbursements for Partially Paid Invoices
Good news for AWS Marketplace Sellers!
AWS has introduced a major improvement to seller cash flow and revenue recognition:
Sellers can now receive disbursements for partially paid invoices.
This update brings more flexibility, faster access to funds, and improved financial control — helping sellers manage their operations with greater confidence and predictability.
🔍 What’s New?
Previously, disbursements to sellers were only initiated after full invoice payment from buyers. Now, with this enhancement:
✅ Sellers can receive partial disbursements as customers make payments
✅ No more waiting for full payment to access earned revenue
✅ Disbursements are automatically calculated and processed based on the amount received
✅ Applies to both private offers and standard listings with invoicing enabled
💡 Why This Matters
For AWS Marketplace Sellers — especially those managing large enterprise deals or multi-month contracts — waiting for full invoice payments could delay revenue realization and impact cash flow.
With this update, sellers benefit from:
💸 Faster cash access
📊 Improved revenue forecasting
🔄 Better alignment with buyer payment behavior
📈 Smoother business operations and scalability
This change also strengthens the Marketplace’s value proposition as a B2B commerce platform — making it easier for software vendors to transact with enterprise customers on flexible terms.
🧾 How It Works
- When a customer pays a portion of their invoice, AWS will automatically calculate the seller’s share based on the payment amount.
- A disbursement is then initiated for the eligible amount, following AWS’s standard disbursement cycle.
- Sellers can track partial payments and disbursements via the AWS Marketplace Management Portal (AMMP) or through relevant APIs.
🚀 More Flexibility, Less Waiting
This enhancement reflects AWS’s ongoing commitment to improving the seller experience on AWS Marketplace — with a focus on cash flow, transparency, and scalability.
