Registration process - AWS Partner Central

Registration process

To register for AWS Partner Central

  1. Navigate to the APN Marketing page.

  2. Choose Become a partner. This will re-direct you to the AWS Console log in page. You must have an AWS account designated to register the AWS Partner Central service in. All AWS Partner Central users will be provisioned access to this AWS account.

    Important

    You may need to reach out and request support for the following steps from your organization's IAM administrator. If you're unsure who your administrator is, you may need to reach out to your organization's IT department or whoever manages your company's AWS accounts. IAM Administrators typically sit within IT Security or Information Security departments, and sometimes in dedicated IAM teams or Governance and Compliance orgs. They should be able to direct you to the appropriate person who has administrative access to manage IAM users.

  3. Identify an AWS account for AWS Partner Central. For more information on AWS account selection, see Linking AWS Partner Central and AWS accounts.

  4. This IAM Administrator must provision the user performing the registration process access to the selected AWS account. This individual (the 'alliance lead') should be authorized to accept the AWS Partner Network and AWS Customer Engagement program terms and conditions on behalf of their organization, and will become the primary contact managing the AWS Partner Central account upon successful registration. For more information on what access should be provisioned, see AWS managed policies for AWS Partner Central users.

  5. Once access is provisioned in IAM to the 'alliance lead', this individual should utilize their assigned IAM credentials to log into the AWS Console of the selected AWS account.

  6. Choose Sign In. This will redirect you to the AWS Console home page.

Note

If your organization already has single sign-on set up to the AWS Console, you will be able to proceed with logging into the AWS account with your regular work credentials. If you do not have single sign-on enabled, enter the 12-digit AWS account ID and username and password credentials provided by your IAM administrator.

Navigate to the AWS Partner Central service page

  1. Once you have successfully logged into the AWS Console home page, navigate to "AWS Partner Central" by using the console navigation or using the console search.
