The Symantec Rewards program provides mid-sized and large organizations with streamlined procurement of all Symantec software products as well as support and maintenance services. With volume-purchase incentives and predictable pricing, Symantec Rewards offers the added flexibility of decentralized purchasing. In addition, Symantec Rewards offers online tools and a way for customers to simplify how they track and manage their band and purchase points.

Companies with branches or affiliates (especially if they are located in multiple countries) can utilize the global purchasing power offered by Symantec Rewards. Purchases under the original customer's Symantec Agreement Number (SAN), made by any corporate affiliate within the qualified region, earn points that accumulate and count toward the corporate pricing band. Purchases made under affiliate SAN's accumulate and count toward the "Family" point total and pricing band.

The Symantec Express program is designed especially for small to mid-sized companies that need an easy way to purchase small license quantities for use within a single country—without the time-consuming negotiations and complexity of signing contracts.

Small and mid-sized business customers can use this program to purchase all Symantec security and availability software products, as well as support and maintenance service options. Ordering additional licenses on a given transaction can qualify the purchase for a different pricing band, making the customer eligible for greater incentives.

The Symantec Government Buying Program helps streamline the way government agencies purchase Symantec products, requiring no contract and only a minimal number of licenses. The program simplifies ordering and administration processes, allows agencies to consolidate their buying power to earn attractive discounts—and helps track licenses, purchases, and return on investment.

The Symantec Academic buying program helps streamline the way authorized academic institutions and charities purchase Symantec software products. There are no signed contracts, and the requirements to participate are minimal. In most instances, the program enables procurement with a single purchase order, with products delivered in a single shipment and on a single invoice. Customers earn eligibility for discounts and can consolidate their buying power within any given transaction.
