Passport Advantage offers better pricing for your volume purchases over time and is based on your Relationship Suggested Volume Price (RSVP) level.
Highlights
- New enrollments require a significant initial purchase
- You receive your RSVP level based on your initial acquisition of licenses and IBM Software Subscription and Support. We've simplified the way we calculate RSVP levels based on your requirements and suggestions
- Each acquisition is based on your RSVP or size of the transaction— whichever results in the lower price for you.
- Your RSVP is recalculated after every transaction
- Additional locations or sites anywhere in the world can enroll under the same agreement so your business can leverage its combined acquisition power
- You get Software Subscription and Support with each Passport Advantage license you purchase - and prorated renewals to your organisation's established anniversary date.
