VMware Volume Purchasing Program Program Definitions Customer Eligibility Any VMware customer can enroll for a VPP membership via the online enrollment portal located at www.vmware.com/go/vppenroll.
VMware Volume Purchasing Program Affiliates Discount Flow VPP customers may add their affiliates to their membership to utilize and benefit from their organization’s discount level and global purchasing power. Once such a relationship is established, all valid points will accumulate with all members earning the same shared discount. As new affiliates are added over time, their valid points will be pooled into the organization.
VMware Volume Purchasing Program Policies Mergers and Divestitures In the case where two VPP customers merge, the newly merged company will inherit the higher of the discount levels and points. VMware will not sum the accumulated points from each membership. In the case where two VPP customers undergo a divestiture, two new VPP memberships may be created assuming other program criteria are met.
