Distribution Domain
Introduction
A Distribution is how we configure the way in which we make Products available to Partners and ultimately to Consumers. A Distribution may define a White-Label site, an Extranet site, a App Topic or access to our APIs
When we define a new distribution we are defining all of the content, branding and configuration necessary to enable to sell Products to Consumers and, in the case of a White-Label all the ancillary content that helps the consumer understand a particular operator, place or category of product. Content may include pages, blogs, curations and more.
