Providers FAQs
A: Bitwarden offers a reseller discount to partners based on cumulative seats under management in any teams and enterprise organizations, including any created for use by reseller or MSP employees. To learn more about the discounting structure, please contact sales here.
A: Currently, each client organization is billed separately using the payment method registered during client organization creation. Client organization owners (that is, an owner who is not a member of your provider) will not be able to view billing information.
In the future, we will be developing functionality to aggregate billing across client organizations to improve the Provider experience.
A: All MSPs receive priority support from our 24/7 customer support team. Contact us for support.
A: The Provider Portal was designed to streamline multi-organization control and administration for MSPs across their client's Bitwarden organizations. Using the Provider Portal, MSPs can:
View all clients under MSP management, onboard new and existing clients, access clients' organization vaults, and administer services for teams and enterprise organizations.
Add internal staff as users, assign proper user roles, and delegate administrative duties.
View time-stamped actions made by users in the Provider Portal, including creation of new client organizations, invitation of new provider users, and when provider users access client organizations.
The Provider Portal is an all-in-one portal, designed to streamline client management and operations while increasing value for your clients.
A: There is no fee for MSPs or their users to use the Provider Portal. It is provided, free of charge, as part of the Bitwarden partner program. If you would like to set up an organization for use by your internal team, those seats will be billed at the discounted rate.
