Create a Provider account
Prerequisite for becoming a Provider
To use Dynamo as a Provider, you must already have a Buyer account registered in the Marketplace.
A Buyer account is the prerequisite required to request Provider enablement and access the features dedicated to publishing and managing services.
If you do not yet have a Buyer account, refer to the guide Create a Buyer account.
Relationship between Buyer account and Provider account
In the Dynamo Marketplace, a Provider account is created from an existing Buyer account and automatically inherits:
- the email address used as the username;
- the account type (Individual or Company).
- if your Buyer account is an Individual account, your Provider account will also be an Individual account;
- if your Buyer account is a Company account, your Provider account will also be a Company account.
Create a Provider account
Accessing the Provider dashboard opens a new browser window or tab. If your browser blocks pop-ups or automatic redirects, the page may not open correctly.
If this happens, review your browser settings and allow new windows to be opened for the Dynamo website.
- Sign in to the Dynamo Storefront using your Buyer account credentials (email address and password);
- From the side navigation menu, select Provider dashboard;
- The Provider onboarding page opens;
- Review the information displayed on the page;
- Accept all options related to terms and conditions:
- consent to receive marketing communications is optional.
- Select Agree and continue to proceed;
- On the Already have an account? page, select Create account;
- The system automatically uses the email address associated with your Buyer account;
- Configure the Provider account password according to the password requirements;
- Click Set password;
- On the Log in to your account page, enter the password associated with the Provider account and select Log in;
- In the Onboarding section, complete and/or confirm the required information in the various sections:
- Type of account – displays the Provider account type automatically inherited from the Buyer account (Individual or Company);
- Identification – displays the identification information associated with the Buyer account (for example, Tax ID or VAT ID);
- Participant details – contains Provider profile information:
- for Individual accounts, you can configure first name, last name, and the public nickname used as the public identity associated with services published in the Marketplace;
- for Company accounts, you can configure the company legal name, public company name, and associated contact details.
For Company accounts, the Public company name is prepopulated with the Legal company name and can be edited. It is the name used to identify the Provider in the Dynamo catalog.
Changing the Public company name after Provider configuration invalidates the Meson adapters associated with the Provider. The Service classes and related Service Offerings must therefore be recreated.
- Address – contains the address information associated with the Provider, including street number, address, city, state or province, ZIP/postal code, and country;
- Service category – select one or more service categories that you intend to publish in the Marketplace, such as:
- IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) – infrastructure services delivered through the cloud;
- PaaS (Platform as a Service) – managed platforms and application environments;
- SaaS (Software as a Service) – software and applications delivered as a service.
- Bank details – enter the IBAN of the bank account where you want to receive sales proceeds, along with the corresponding SWIFT/BIC code;
- Contact information:
- administrative email – used for administrative communications;
- provisioning email – used for communications related to provisioning activities;
- support email – used for support communications associated with published services.
- EU compliance:
- GDPR compliance – if selected, indicates that the Provider complies with GDPR requirements for the protection and processing of personal data;
- Immune to extra-EU jurisdiction – if selected, indicates that the Provider is not subject to non-EU jurisdictions.
- Select Submit to complete the Provider account configuration;
- Once completed, you are automatically redirected to the Provider dashboard.
The sections, fields, and categories available during onboarding may vary depending on the associated Buyer account type (Individual or Company) and the Dynamo environment configuration.
