Cisco Technology Migration Program
Earn Upfront Trade in Credits for new Cisco Solutions

The Cisco Technology Migration Program (CTMP) is a trade-in migration program that encourages end customers to trade in their installed base of Cisco networking products and strategic competitive products.

End customers earn trade in credits which serve as an upfront discount towards the purchase of new Cisco solutions.

CTMP provide an opportunity for partners to generate opportunities in their installed base and improves partner profitability.

How are trade-in credits calculated? 

Cisco Internal Tool CTMP calculator is used to calculate trade in credits. Credits are determined by:

•  The equipment trade-in and
•  The equipment to be purchased

All Cisco Registered Partners are eligible to access this program.

Helpful ordering hint: Clearly mark your order as CTMP so we can ensure your credits are processed in a timely manner.
