The Partner Ecosystem Management Integration Layer provides the integration points to the Merchant’s back-end and the Reseller’s (Service Provider’s) back-end. Partner Ecosystem Management is situated in the middle of the Merchant and Reseller systems, acting as the mediator to help organizations integrate once to resell to many. Integration for Resellers primarily involves configuring an API key, settings, events, notifications, gateway adapter settings, reports, and integration testing. Integration for Merchants involves configuring webhook events, API keys (one per Reseller they have a partnership with), reports, redemption activation settings, integration testing, and an endpoint to check system availability. Depending on integration needs, other configuration settings may be adjusted for Resellers and/or Merchants. With Partner Ecosystem Management, you only need to integrate once. After integrating, Resellers and Merchants can establish partnerships in the Partner Management user interface. For each new partnership with a Reseller, the Merchant needs to create an API key and approve a product agreement from the Reseller. Partner Ecosystem Management offers a marketplace of Merchants for Resellers to discover. This includes Merchants that are integrating to the platform and Merchants that have completed their integration. Partner Ecosystem Management processes the activities and settlement terms of partnerships, so both types of organizations benefit from a single source of truth. Two options are available:
  1. Platform-managed product lifecycle: Partner Ecosystem Management acts as an orchestration engine for subscription products that are part of an approved agreement between the Reseller and the Merchant. Partner Ecosystem Management activates and manages subscriptions on behalf of the Reseller.
  2. Merchant-managed product lifecycle: Partner Ecosystem Management acts as a billing channel for Merchants under an approved agreement. The Merchant can bill subscriptions from the Merchant’s digital store with the Reseller’s billing system.
Partner Ecosystem Management provides access to its RESTful APIs through the MarketONE OpenAPI. You can use these APIs to integrate with your application. Parent topic:Partner Ecosystem Management Components
