The three buttons on a card
Each Radar card carries one button. Which one you see follows from the listing.Reserve needs a stated minimum term. A deal has to have a length, and neither side can size one from a listing that names none. A seller who wants the button on their listing states the minimum term on it. See Listings.
Reserve a listing
1
Press Reserve
A dialog opens with the listing’s details already filled in: the number of nodes, the start date and the term.
2
Adjust what you need
Change the number of nodes, the start date or the term if they differ from the listing. The dialog keeps you inside what the listing offers: no more nodes than it has, no start before it is available, and no term shorter than its minimum. A demand outside those would be one the listing has already refused.You can add a note for the GPU Outlet team. The seller does not see it: the seller reads your demand without your company’s name, and free text is where a name slips in.
3
Send it to the seller
Your demand is created as a request of your company and offered to this seller. You land on that request, where its status shows it is with the seller.
What happens next
- The seller accepts. Both companies are introduced: you see the seller in Introductions, and they see you. From there you agree the contract directly.
- The seller declines. Nobody is told who asked. Your request returns to open, and the GPU Outlet team can match it to other listings.
- The seller has not signed their agreement yet. They can see your opportunity but must sign before they can accept it. Their side tells them so.
Request confirmation
On an Indicative listing the seller has not yet proven the right to sell the capacity, so there is nothing to reserve. Request confirmation opens the listing’s page instead. There, Request this capacity starts a request with the GPU and region filled in from the listing, and the GPU Outlet team takes it forward once the capacity is confirmed.Reserve, or a request?
- Reserve is about one listing you have already found. It goes to that listing’s seller only.
- A request states what your company needs without naming a listing. The GPU Outlet team matches it to listings from any seller. See Requests.
