Microsoft Marketplace gives you three ways to sell at a price that isn't your public list price. This section explains what each one is, how to choose between them, and how to set them up.

### 🟣 Which one do you need?

### 🟣 Rule of thumb

- **Simple discount for one customer you already know?** Private plan.
- **Negotiated deal - custom terms, multiple plans, a longer subscription?** Direct private offer.
- **The customer buys through a reseller, or they're on a CSP-managed subscription?** CSP private offer. Private plans and direct private offers cannot be accepted by CSP customers.

- [Private Plan](https://docs.wetransact.io/private-plan) - hidden pricing inside your offer, targeted by tenant ID
- [Direct Private Offer](https://docs.wetransact.io/direct-private-offer) - a negotiated deal sent to a customer's billing account
- [CSP Private Offer](https://docs.wetransact.io/csp-private-offer) - a margin deal sent to a reseller

### 🟣 Before you start

Whichever route you take, you'll need an identifier from the other side:

- [How to find your Tenant ID in Azure portal?](https://docs.wetransact.io/how-to-find-your-tenant-id-in-azure-portal) - for private plans
- [How to Find a Billing ID?](https://docs.wetransact.io/how-to-find-a-billing-id) - for direct private offers
