Frequently Asked Questions
General
Dynamo is a European digital services marketplace where organisations can discover, compare and purchase SaaS, AI and data services from a curated catalogue of European and international providers. Dynamo is designed to make digital procurement more transparent and open – giving buyers structured, comparable information across providers and helping them make informed decisions without depending on a single vendor or ecosystem.
No. Dynamo is a marketplace, not a cloud provider. We do not build or operate cloud infrastructure. We connect buyers with providers, handle the commercial transaction and leave the service relationship – delivery, support and SLAs – directly between buyer and provider.
Dynamo’s catalogue covers a broad range of digital services delivered as-a-service: SaaS applications, AI and data services, APIs, PaaS offerings and other digital solutions that can be procured and consumed online. The catalogue is oriented toward ready-to-use services rather than raw infrastructure
Most major cloud marketplaces are built around a single cloud ecosystem, making it structurally difficult to compare providers or evaluate services objectively. Dynamo is designed around transparency: any provider can list services on the platform, and service information is presented in a clear, comparable format so buyers can make informed decisions without being locked into a single vendor or ecosystem.
Dynamo does not own, develop, or hold commercial stakes in the services listed on the platform. Providers are listed on the basis of defined criteria, not commercial preference. Buyers can compare services across providers without Dynamo steering them toward any particular outcome.
Dynamo does not issue its own certifications. Each listing displays the information the provider has chosen to share. Buyers can browse and filter services by category, geography, and service type to identify the options most relevant to their needs.
No. Any provider can publish services on Dynamo. There are no mandatory technical frameworks or proprietary standards to adopt.
Services are searchable and filterable by category, service type and location. Each listing displays the information the provider has chosen to share. Discovery is transparent: no promoted placements, no ranking tied to commercial relationships.
Once you identify a service, you can initiate procurement directly through the platform. Dynamo handles the commercial transaction – you are invoiced by Dynamo, not by the individual provider. The service itself is delivered by the provider, who manages onboarding, support and the ongoing relationship.

No. Dynamo is designed for multi-provider adoption. Organisations can procure services from multiple providers through the same platform, compare alternatives at any time and avoid dependency on a single vendor. Avoiding lock-in is a core design principle.
For providers
Dynamo is open to any provider of digital services – SaaS, AI, data, and API companies – that meets our basic onboarding criteria. We welcome both European and international providers. There is no requirement to hold specific certifications or meet sovereignty standards to be listed
The barrier to publish on Dynamo is intentionally low – any provider with a commercially available digital service can apply. Basic service documentation is required at onboarding: service description, category, pricing model and availability by region. Detailed commercial terms are shared during the onboarding process.
Your service is indexed in Dynamo’s catalogue and surfaced through search and filtering based on category, service type and location. Buyers actively looking for services in your category will find you alongside alternatives – visibility is based on relevance, not on paid placement or preferential ranking.
Onboarding typically takes one to four weeks, depending on the completeness of the information provided at submission, the complexity of compliance verification and any requirement to automate service provisioning. A dedicated onboarding contact can support the process end to end.
Yes. Dynamo operates on a commission model: a percentage of the transaction value is retained by Dynamo. Detailed commercial terms are shared during the onboarding process.
Beyond catalogue visibility, Dynamo actively promotes the platform to enterprise and public sector buyers across Europe. Being listed on Dynamo places your service in front of buyers who are actively evaluating digital services. For providers without an established European sales presence, Dynamo can be a meaningful source of qualified demand.
