Microsoft bundles Copilot Business into all Partner Center tiers at no added fee

AI Analysis
Bundling Copilot into partner benefits is a distribution play: partners who use Copilot internally are more likely to sell it. The packages add Azure credits and dedicated advisory hours to speed adoption.
It follows a related shift. New Copilot Business purchases through CSP partners default to usage-based billing from December 1. Copilot also recently added OpenAI GPT-6.1 and Anthropic Claude Opus 5.5 as model options.
Watch for agentic announcements at Ignite that these partners are being prepared to resell.
