AWS $5,000 Funding via Partner Central MCP Server

Last updated: August 19, 2026

Overview

AWS offers $5,000 in AWS credits to partners once 10 or more co-sell opportunities have been updated via the AWS Partner Central MCP Server. Clazar can update your opportunities through this MCP Server integration, so your qualifying activity happens automatically as you work in the platform.

Fund requests close December 1, 2026 — the earlier the integration is enabled, the more of your deal flow counts toward the threshold.

How to Enable It

Reply to your Clazar contact with a YES to enable AWS MCP Server Integration, and the team will switch it on. You can also book time with Clazar's Funding Programs team for a walkthrough of the program specifics.

Do Updates Through Clazar AI Count Toward Funding?

Yes. When you update co-sell opportunities through the Clazar AI Assistant, those updates go through the AWS MCP Server behind the scenes and count toward the funding requirement. You don't need to use the Auto-Update feature specifically — updates triggered via Clazar AI qualify as well.

Is a Separate MCP Setup Required?

No. Once Clazar AI is enabled for your account (after you give the go-ahead), the AWS MCP integration is already active behind the scenes. Any updates you make through Clazar AI count automatically — there is no separate MCP setup step to complete.

Can I Connect the AWS Partner Central MCP Directly to My Own Claude Instance?

Not directly. The AWS Partner Central Agents MCP Server requires SigV4 authentication on every request, which means it cannot be connected straight to Claude.

Instead, you can connect the Clazar MCP Server to your Claude instance. The Clazar MCP Server connects to the AWS Partner Central Agents MCP internally, and any co-sell opportunities you update through it will also count toward the funding.

Summary

You have two ways to earn the AWS credits, and both count toward the funding threshold:

  1. Clazar AI Assistant — update co-sell opportunities directly in the platform.

  2. Clazar MCP Server connected to your own Claude instance — using the setup guide above.
