# Azure Marketplace

## Prerequisites

In order to purchase solutions from independent software vendors (ISV) you must fulfil the following requirements:

1. You have an active Azure subscription.
2. The account you want to purchase our solution with must have the **Owner** or **Contributor** role assigned on the Azure subscription you are going to pay with.
3. The billing account linked to your Azure subscription is properly set up. Depending on your billing account type (Microsoft Customer Agreement or Enterprise Agreement), you might need to enable marketplace purchases in the Azure portal first.

## Pricing Model

* RADIUSaaS is offered as a **monthly or** **annual subscription plan** with different [User Segments](#user-segments). The correct **user segment** is automatically selected by our platform based on the amount of desired users.
* All subscription plans consist of a **base fee** which includes a certain amount of users per subscription cycle - depending on the **user segment**. For example, the **base fee** for the user segment *RADIUSaaS (M) 50* includes 50 users per month.
* If more than the included amount of users is required, **additional users** can be added to the  plan. For each additional user, we charge an additional per-user fee.

## Invoicing

* During the first subscription interval, your subscription fees are not immediately due after completing the subscription enrolment. Instead we will start billing once your cancellation grace period has expired.&#x20;
* Upon every renewal date, you will be billed immediately.
* You will always be billed for the entire subscription cycle in advance.
* The related items should appear on your Microsoft Azure invoice (Pay-As-You-Go or Enterprise Agreement) the month after we have reported your fees to Microsoft.
* In the PDF invoice you will receive from Microsoft, all RADIUSaaS fees are lumped into an item called "SaaS". The related Publisher is "glueckkanja".<br>

## Subscription Management

### User Upgrades

* If you would like to upgrade your user count, you can do that any time during the current subscription cycle by navigating to your **RADIUSaaS subscription** in the [Azure SaaS portal](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/HubsExtension/BrowseResourceBlade/resourceType/Microsoft.SaaS%2Fresources) and by clicking "Open SaaS Account on publisher's site" (see screenshot below). This will re-direct you to our platform where the amount of users can be upgraded.

![](https://content.gitbook.com/content/SWU1DQ4UGkqER7uGNUOm/blobs/501YsNPIaZTyXtp029CM/Screenshot%202022-02-18%20at%2012.32.27%202.png)

* Our platform will inform you about the new fees you to expect for a **complete** subscription cycle.
* For the current cycle, we will bill the additional users for remaining days only.
* After confirming your choice and once we have updated the license in our backend, you will receive a confirmation email from us.

### User Downgrades

* You can **pre-register a reduction** of your licensed users for the **next renewal**, by navigating to your **RADIUSaaS subscription** in the [Azure SaaS portal](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/HubsExtension/BrowseResourceBlade/resourceType/Microsoft.SaaS%2Fresources) and by clicking "Open SaaS Account on publisher's site" (see screenshot below). This will re-direct you to our platform where the amount of users can be downgraded.

![](https://content.gitbook.com/content/SWU1DQ4UGkqER7uGNUOm/blobs/501YsNPIaZTyXtp029CM/Screenshot%202022-02-18%20at%2012.32.27%202.png)

* The downgrade will become effective upon the next regular renewal of your subscription.
* In case you change your mind and would like to change the user quantity or cancel the downgrade altogether, navigate back to your **RADIUSaaS subscription** and click **Cancel downgrade**.

### Change Plan

If available on Azure Portal, the **Change Plan** action allows you to change your current outdated plan to the most recent version of the plan with the same subscription cycle (annually or monthly).

### **Recurring Billing**

If you decide to disable **Recurring billing**, your subscription will not renew automatically. Instead, Microsoft will (irreversibly) cancel the subscription towards the end of the current subscription cycle. This means, the service will be terminated automatically on that date as well. While the subscription has not expired yet, you can opt to enable **Recurring billing** at any time.

### Cancellation

* If you would like to (irreversibly) cancel your subscription, navigate to your **RADIUSaaS subscription** in the [Azure SaaS portal](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/HubsExtension/BrowseResourceBlade/resourceType/Microsoft.SaaS%2Fresources) and click **Cancel subscription**.

<figure><img src="https://content.gitbook.com/content/SWU1DQ4UGkqER7uGNUOm/blobs/GpLbkFAHX683ua7Xh5N7/Screenshot%202022-02-18%20at%2012.29.47%20copy.png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* If you cancel within the grace period, the service will be stopped immediately.
* If you cancel after the grace period, the service will remain active until the end of the current subscription cycle.

## FAQs

### How to purchase RADIUSaaS or a Solution Bundle?

{% hint style="info" %}
Deploying a RADIUSaaS or [Solution Bundle](#solution-bundles) subscription via Azure Marketplace **will not result** **in a re-deployment of RADIUSaaS (or SCEPman) if you already have an active trial or production deployment**. Instead, we will assign the license obtained as part of this subscription to your existing deployments.

For **new customers**, we will provision a new instance of RADIUSaaS once below steps are completed. Please allow up to 1 business day for us to complete the provisioning.

{% hint style="info" %}
The **Technical contact** must have a mailbox connected to it, so we are able to notify you in case there are relevant issues with RADIUSaaS. By default, we also configure the **Technical contact** as initial administrator on your RADIUSaaS instance. In case you'd like to change that, please [let us know](https://www.radius-as-a-service.com/help/).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}

### Why is my "Plan no longer available for purchase"?

In case you see hint in your subscription as shown in below screenshot, **there is no need to worry**!

<figure><img src="https://content.gitbook.com/content/SWU1DQ4UGkqER7uGNUOm/blobs/BwuAQANJXUdP9xYkqwmw/azure-saas-plan-no-longer-available-for-purchase%20copy.png" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The reasons for this hint is that - from time to time - we might have to deprecate plans for technical reasons.&#x20;

**Important:**

* As an existing customer, you may continue to use the deprecated plan indefinitely (until the subscription is cancelled).
* In case a newer plan gives you better pricing or other advantages, we will inform you about this.
* You can change to the most recent version of the plan by leveraging the [Change Plan](#change-plan) action.

### Why is my Azure Marketplace purchase not working?

You may encounter problems when purchasing through Azure Marketplace. Here is a list of reasons, why buying through Azure Marketplace may fail:

1. You do not have permissions in your Azure tenant to purchase through Azure Marketplace. You must be assigned the role of Owner or Contributor in the Azure subscription you want to pay with.
2. The subscription belongs to an Enterprise Agreement (EA) and the EA admin disabled Azure Marketplace purchases. Or the EA admin has enabled purchases only for free offers and the offer is a paid offer. Please see [here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/purchase-control-options) for details.
3. The subscription you're using belongs to a billing account in a region where the offer isn't available.\
   Our Marketplace offers are available in the following countries/regions:

   Armenia, Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Kenya, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Malta, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Türkiye, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States, Vietnam
4. The subscription/billing account isn't associated with a valid payment instrument (such as a valid credit card).
5. Private Marketplace is enabled for the subscription and the offer isn't in the list of allowed offers.
6. Purchases are not permitted for subscriptions with a spending cap, including Free subscriptions, Sponsorships, and similar types.

### Does RADIUSaaS or the Solution Bundles count towards my Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC)?

Currently (March 2025), this is the case. Since Microsoft may change their policy on what counts towards MACC in the future, please always [confirm](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/azure-consumption-commitment-benefit#find-and-purchase-azure-benefit-eligible-offers-in-azure-marketplace) eligibility first.
