Pure Storage is giving channel partners a five percent rebate on any eligible as-a-service deal as it brings a raft of new changes to its partner programme.
Elite-level Pure Storage partners will now be able to earn back five percent of the total contract value of Pure as-a-service deals of up to $100,000 per deal.
In a statement, the company said the rebate is available until 31 October 2021 and applies for the first Pure as-a-service opportunity for both new and existing customers.
The idea of the rebate is to create more differentiation between its Elite-level and Preferred-level partners. Pure claims that the number of partners selling Pure as-a-service has doubled this year versus last year.
Pure restructured its channel in October last year, combining its GSI and MSP partner bases together into a single partner organisation. It also bought in back-end incentives for its Cloud Block Store, as-a-service and FlashBlade offerings in March last year.
The new five percent as-a-service rebate for Elite partners is stackable with all other front-end and back-end rebates Pure offers, if you see what the company means.
