Starting July 1, 2025, and running through June 30, 2026, Microsoft-nominated customers making a new and qualifying purchase during the offer period are eligible to receive a services credit to be used with a qualifying partner.

As of May 1, 2026, E7 Migration & Deployment Voucher (ME3E5E7) program is available. Partners may earn incentives by engaging with Enterprise and SMC- Manager customers who have M365 E7 FUSL licenses.

For information about the FY25 Modern Work & Security Deployment Offer, please see the https://aka.ms/M365E3E5E7MigrationDeploymentTerms.

Rate Card

Note the following: The Microsoft 365 E3/E5 or E7 Qualifying Workloads voucher cannot be combined with another offer for same qualifying workloads, including End Customer Investment Fund (“ECIF”) and MCI Deployment Accelerators (post-sales). MCI Immersion briefing or Envisioning & PoC (pre-sales) are allowed.

How it works

Once an approved customer makes a qualified purchase, they will receive an email for the Voucher that contains the information needed for the engagement.

Then the customer will:

1. Work with an approved partner to redeem the voucher and complete the engagement. If the customer is not currently working with an approved partner, they can submit a Partner Referral Submission Form to be matched to an eligible partner (provided in the voucher email) or choose a partner from the Approved Partner List.
 

If a customer wants to work with a partner who is not on the Approved Partner List the partner will first need to  establish their eligibility to redeem program vouchers with the QTM  Partner Support team. If eligible, they must complete program enrollment and onboarding before they can engage in redemption of a Voucher or the delivery of any work funded by a customer’s voucher.
 

The Voucher has a fixed expiration date and the expectation is that a voucher-funded engagement will be completed by the voucher expiration date. If a partner needs to onboard to the program, both the partner and the customer need to be aware of the program deadline and be able to meet them or the funding will expire.
 

Important! Customers should select a partner as soon as possible to avoid losing the full benefits of the voucher program. The customer is encouraged to engage with an approved partner as soon as the voucher is issued. .Approved partners are familiar program requirements, understand program deadlines, and are ready to engage customer vouchers today.
 

2. Present the approved partner with the Voucher ID email, which will enable the Partner to begin to scope work for the engagement and initiate voucher redemption and payment requests.

Work delivered prior to approval of a Statement of Work is not incentive eligible, so Partners should wait until they receive notification from Microsoft that their Statement of Work has been approved by the Quick to Market team.

Important! For partners, this follows the Standard Referral process as well as the ME3E5 Voucher Redemption Process.
