# Order FinOps for Cloud from Marketplace

This tutorial describes how you can order a FinOps for Cloud subscription from the SoftwareOne Marketplace. This tutorial focuses on creating a new agreement. 

### Prerequisites <a href="#howtoorderamicrosoft365subscriptionforanexistingmicrosofttenant-prerequisites" id="howtoorderamicrosoft365subscriptionforanexistingmicrosofttenant-prerequisites"></a>

Before starting this tutorial, make sure you have the following:

* A licensee in the **active** state or permission to [create a new licensee](https://docs.platform.softwareone.com/modules-and-features/settings/licensees/create-licensees) (if you don't want to use an existing licensee). You'll need to select the licensee when setting up the new agreement.
* The contact details of the administrator who will manage your FinOps account. Details include the admin's name and email address. After your order has been placed, we'll email the login details to the administrator you specified.&#x20;

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Submit your order**

Complete the following steps, making sure to enter or verify the required information where necessary:

1. **Select agreement** - Select **Create agreement** to start creating your new agreement.
2. **Select licensee** - Choose whether you want to use an existing licensee or create a new one. In this tutorial, we'll select an existing licensee. You can [add a new licensee](/modules-and-features/settings/licensees/create-licensees.md) by selecting **Create licensee**.
3. **Agreement** - Provide the following details, then select **Next**:
   1. **Organization name** - (Required) Enter the name of your organization. This name represents your environment in FinOps for Cloud. You can update the name later from the **Settings** page within FinOps.&#x20;
   2. **Currency** - (Required) Select the currency that your cloud service provider bills you in.&#x20;
   3. **Administrator** - (Required) Fill out the contact form. You'll need to enter the contact details of the administrator managing your account. This admin is assigned the **Organization admin** role in FinOps.

{% hint style="warning" %}
When selecting a **Currency**, make sure to choose the correct one, as it can't be changed after the agreement has been created. You must select the same currency that your cloud provider (like AWS or Azure) uses for billing. For example, if you are billed in USD, you must select **USD** from the list. If you choose a different currency, you won't be able to import the cost and usage data from your cloud provider.

6. **Review order** - Read the terms and conditions and the privacy statement. When done, select **Place order** to submit your order.
7. **Summary** - Select **View details** to open the order details page. Otherwise, select **Close**.
   {% endstep %}
   {% endstepper %}

### Next steps

Once your order is placed, we verify the details and then process your order. You can use the **General** tab on the [order details](/modules-and-features/marketplace/orders.md#subscription-details) page to keep track of your purchase. If there are any issues, the details page describes the problem and any actions you might need to take.

After the order is complete, we email your account administrator with instructions on [signing in to your FinOps account](https://portal.finops.softwareone.com/). After signing in, admins can connect data sources to start importing data.&#x20;
