FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Who is the BOX Program for?
The AWS Business Outcomes Xcelerator (BOX) Program helps technology and services partners build and sell solutions that address specific business needs. This includes independent software vendors (ISVs) collaborating with other ISVs to create bundled solutions that combine complementary products. Eligibility includes Validated or Differentiated partner status and AWS co-sell eligibility, either directly or through a partner.
What kind of funding is available?
Eligible partners can access milestone-based cash funding, AWS credits, and support for lead-generation activities. Funding depends on eligibility, completed milestones, and AWS approval. Available amounts should be confirmed against the current BOX Funding Benefit Guide.
Do I need to be listed on AWS Marketplace already?
Yes. The lead ISV must have an existing AWS Marketplace listing and have passed the AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR). These requirements are not mandatory for the second ISV participating in the bundle.
How is Awssome involved?
Awssome guides you throughout the BOX journey, providing advisory support, readiness assessments, documentation preparation, funding application assistance, and milestone coordination. From Marketplace onboarding and bundle preparation to go-to-market planning and co-selling, we help you navigate the requirements and move forward at each stage.
What’s the time commitment?
The program follows milestones covering solution design, development, market readiness, and sales. The time commitment depends on your solution’s readiness, the scope of the bundle, and the work needed to meet each milestone. A timeline should be agreed at the start of the engagement.
