I have a question regarding the billing. Currently we are reselling bitbucket to our customer (a government agency), but the atlassian org is billed by another reseller (includes JIRA/confluence)
To me it seems to make sense to integrate and centralise it, but will you be able to split the billing of bitbucket to a separate reseller?
if not, what is your advice for us, the resellers, and for our customers?

We use Jira, Jira Service Management (each „Standard“) and Confluence Premium Cloud. These applications are licensed through a reseller. Bitbucket Premium licenses were purchased directly from Atlassian. Two different e-mail addresses and payment methods have been used.
Now we should add Bitbucket to our domain. According to our reseller, this is only possible if Bitbucket is also licensed by him. Since our Bitbucket contains the source code of all our applications, I am afraid to do something wrong if I simply asssigne Bitbucket to our domain according to instructions.
As part of the Early Access Program (EAP), our Bitbucket Cloud workspace will be migrated into the Atlassian Admin Console (organization-level). Before we proceed, we would like to clarify a few detailed aspects to ensure a smooth transition.
1. User Access, Repository Permissions & Group Management
What will be the impact on user access, repository permissions (both personal and group), and group management after migration?
Specifically: Will our existing Bitbucket workspace groups be moved into the Atlassian Admin Console, or will they be deleted/archived?
How will existing permissions (especially those assigned via groups) to repositories/projects be handled? Will they carry over seamlessly or require re-assignment?
2. Changes in Access Control & Administration Model
Are there any changes in the access control model or administration model compared to our current standalone Bitbucket setup?
For example: changes to admin roles, token usage (SSH, API), or how access tokens are managed at organization level vs workspace level.
3. Preparations & Adjustments on Our Side
What preparations should we make (e.g., user/group audit, token review, SSH key cleanup) to ensure the migration is smooth and we avoid disruption?
Are there any best practices you recommend for handling access tokens, SSH keys, or API tokens when migrating from workspace to organization?
We appreciate your guidance and confirmation on these points so we can properly plan our internal workstream and avoid potential risks.
You can continue keeping Bitbucket billing separately even post migration to Atlassian Administration and new Billing engine.
You can also continue maintaining different primary billing contacts for each product.
Billing unification will be an option if you decide to do so, however it is completely up to you if you want to have a unified bill or continue having a separate bill for each Atlassian app.
If you would like to participate in our EAP program to migrate your workspace to Atlassian Administration for centralized user and product access management.
Please fill out this participation form and post your questions on the form and we will respond to you via email.
For legacy workspaces that are not yet eligible to link their workspace to an Atlassian Org, our team will be getting in touch with you via email and UI messaging in the first half of 2026 on the next steps.
No action is needed from you at this time. Thank you for checking !
