DataBP manages the commercial relationship surrounding financial data. Its platform brings product catalogues, licensing, agreements, customer records, billing and usage administration into a connected workflow for exchanges, trading venues, index providers and data businesses. A firm consuming data may encounter DataBP through a supplier’s portal; a firm commercialising data can use it to run the associated sales and administration processes.[1][13][5]

Services and commercial workflow
Sections ↑DataBP’s product structure follows a data relationship from enquiry and agreement through access, invoicing, reporting and compliance review. The software can be introduced for a specific administrative function or used as a wider platform. This is particularly relevant where a supplier has several datasets, licensing rules, distribution channels and reporting obligations attached to the same customer.[2]
Modules and responsibilities
| Module | What it administers | Published operating detail |
|---|---|---|
| Sales and Licensing | Quotes, agreements and approval routing. | Catalogue-based quotes feed tailored contracts with clause-level controls, rule-based approvals and DocuSign signatures. Both sales-assisted enterprise deals and self-service purchases are supported.Source 4 |
| Customer Portal | The customer-facing commercial account. | Customers manage agreements, subscriptions, declarations, invoices and support requests through a branded portal connected with the provider’s website.Source 5 |
| Pricing and Billing | Data-provider fees and invoicing. | Configurable rules cover usage units, caps, discounts, rebates, retroactive adjustments and different billing cycles. Invoices can be issued directly or passed to enterprise finance systems.Source 6 |
| Distribution Management | Access rights associated with the licence. | Changes to the customer licensing record can send entitlement instructions downstream and synchronise related billing changes.Source 7 |
| Vendor and Usage Management | Redistributor relationships and recurring declarations. | Supports data-feed and non-display declarations, direct-user reporting and index assets-under-management reporting, with validations and follow-up processes.Source 8 |
| Compliance and Audit | Licensing exceptions and audit administration. | Surveys, entitlement reconciliation, exception thresholds, case tracking and structured audit communications organise follow-up on reported or detected discrepancies.Source 9 |
Customer portal functions
| Function | Published capability |
|---|---|
| Brand and localisation | White-labelled interface integrated with the provider’s corporate site; the page specifies support for up to five interface languages.Source 5 |
| Guided orders | Product catalogues and sales workflows help connect the intended use with the appropriate licence. Sales representatives can prepare orders for customer review and signature.Source 5 |
| Account administration | Customer profiles, users, order history and billing preferences sit alongside usage reporting and support requests.Source 5 |
| Corporate access | SSO and CRM integration connect the portal with existing identity and customer-management arrangements.Source 5 |
Integrations, entitlements and data exchange
Sections ↑Published integration mechanisms
| Connection | Named examples or format | Function |
|---|---|---|
| CRM | Salesforce | Exchange customer-account and sales information with an enterprise CRM.Source 10 |
| Enterprise finance | Oracle, SAP and Workday | Connect invoicing and payment processes with the organisation’s finance environment.Source 10 |
| Identity and sign-on | Okta and Auth0 | Integrate customer identity and single sign-on with an existing corporate stack.Source 10 |
| Payments | Stripe and Moneris | Connect card-payment gateways to commercial workflows.Source 10 |
| Licensing information | ODRL and APIs | Communicate machine-readable licensing details, import or export product definitions, process vendor reports and disseminate approved user entitlements.Source 10 |
| Distribution endpoints | Cloud, colocation, web, FTP and API distribution | A publish/subscribe mechanism propagates changes from licensing records to connected access points.Source 7 |
Entitlement automation links the commercial record with the systems that provide access. DataBP describes immediate access instructions based on a customer’s licence, together with billing synchronisation, product-catalogue imports and controls for trials or one-off access. The practical boundary is the connected delivery endpoint: licence administration must be mapped to the access-control system used by each distribution service.[7]
Pricing and billing scope
Sections ↑A numerical tariff for purchasing DataBP software was not found in the reviewed public material. Sales offers a discussion of the required data-commercialisation workflow. The product named Pricing and Billing is the engine a data provider uses to calculate its customers’ charges; its list of billing methods is not a price list for the DataBP subscription.[14][6]
Fee-calculation features available to data providers
| Area | Published scope |
|---|---|
| Charging units | Per-user, per-device and per-display rules; one-off and recurring fixed or variable charges.Source 6 |
| Commercial adjustments | Netting, volume conditions, caps, discounts, rebates and retrospective corrections.Source 6 |
| Billing operations | Multiple currencies, billing cycles and invoice formats; direct invoicing or integration with corporate billing and receivables.Source 6 |
| Payments and accounting outputs | Payment-gateway checkout, subscription collection and configurable general-ledger postings. The provider describes configuration for accounting frameworks, rather than an independent accounting assurance.Source 6 |
Implementation and recurring operations
Sections ↑The platform is configured around the organisation’s products, customers, commercial terms and contractual framework. DataBP describes a low-code workflow approach and Customer Success assistance during onboarding. Its API-first design supports integration with enterprise applications as well as standalone adoption of modules, so implementation includes defining which system owns each commercial record and where updates are sent.[3]
Recurring operational work supported by the platform
| Process | Data and actions | Published controls |
|---|---|---|
| Sales onboarding | Capture requirements, prepare the agreement and route approvals. | Product and contract rules combine with approval routing, signatures and CRM synchronisation.Source 4 |
| Usage collection | Receive vendor, customer and index AuM declarations. | Web, file-transfer and API inputs; automated validation, reminders and escalation for missing or problematic submissions.Source 8 |
| Reporting exceptions | Compare submitted periods and review unusual values. | Custom rules, trend analysis and AI-assisted anomaly identification support exception handling; the product description does not establish that every discrepancy is a contractual breach.Source 8 |
| Compliance follow-up | Reconcile reported usage with entitlements and survey responses. | Thresholds can open contextual workflows, update licences or correct reporting. Cases retain status and follow-up actions; audits can be tracked with templates and third-party coordination.Source 9 |
Support and managed services
Sections ↑DataBP offers operational capacity alongside software. Its managed-service team can process vendor approvals, declarations and usage reports, administer entitlements and run billing operations. The published service also includes a help desk and white-labelled support for a data provider’s own customers, which is a different role from simply supporting the DataBP application.[11]
Managed-service scope
| Service | Published activity |
|---|---|
| Customer onboarding | Licensing back-office work, vendor approvals and guidance through website and data-access workflows.Source 11 |
| Reporting operations | Vendor reports, data-feed reports, usage declarations, index AuM submissions and entitlement reconciliation.Source 11 |
| Billing and receivables | End-to-end invoicing, invoice distribution and collection activity, including first-line phone and email assistance.Source 11 |
| Help desk and provisioning | Technical and operational help for direct customers and redistributors, plus administration of data-access entitlements.Source 11 |
Published contact routes
Licensing permissions and security
Sections ↑The platform administers the rights granted by the relevant data provider and carries those rights into commercial and access workflows. Its compliance functions concern market-data licensing, usage declarations and audit processes. Software provision does not itself grant a customer permission to redistribute a dataset or use it outside the governing licence.[10][9]
DataBP states that it has achieved ISO 27001 accreditation and links a security-assurance dashboard from its platform page. That is a published company assurance claim; the underlying certificate and an enterprise data-processing agreement were not inspected. The public privacy notice provides a route for personal-data questions, while implementation-specific retention, hosting and access terms remain part of the customer arrangement.[3][15]

Additional Information
Sections ↑On 8 October 2026, LSEG announced a London Stock Exchange partnership with DataBP to make authoritative licensing and invoicing information accessible through a REST API and a Model Context Protocol server. The Licensing Ledger contains inventory, invoices and billing history; customers and their systems can query entitlements, usage terms and invoice lines. Access is authenticated and scoped through the Customer Portal to the information the individual customer is entitled to see. The announced starting use case is reconciliation and licensing questions, including AI-assisted workflows. This is access to commercial administration records, rather than a new permission to consume or redistribute the underlying market data.[16]
