+## Contract pricing for container products
+
+For container-based products with contract pricing, AWS Marketplace bills your customers upfront or by the payment schedule that you define, based on the contract between you and your customer. After that point, they're entitled to use those resources. 
+
+To set your pricing, choose one or more contract durations that you offer customers. You can enter different prices for each contract duration. Your options are 1-month, 12-months, 24-month, and 36-month durations. For private offers, you can specify a custom duration in months (up to 60 months). 
+
+Choose the category that best describes your product’s pricing. The pricing category appears to customers on the AWS Marketplace website. You can choose from **Bandwidth** (GB/s, MB/s), **Data** (GB, MB, TB), **Hosts** , **Requests** , **Tiers** , or **Users**. If none of the predefined categories fit your needs, you can choose the more generic **Units** category. 
+
+The offer allows for up to 24 dimensions to be added to it.
+
+Example: Data storage application | 1-month price | 12-month price  | 24-month price  | P36-month price   
+---|---|---|---|---  
+Unencrypted data (GB)  |  $1.50/GB  |  $16.00/GB  |  $30.00/GB  |  $60.00/GB   
+Encrypted data (GB)  |  $1.55/GB  |  $16.60/GB  |  $31.20/GB  |  $61.20/GB   
+  
+Example: Log monitoring product | 1-month price | 12-month price  | 24-month price | 36-month price  
+---|---|---|---|---  
+Basic (10 hosts monitored, 5 containers monitored)  |  $100  |  $1000  | $2000  | $4000  
+Standard (20 hosts monitored, 10 containers monitored)  |  $200  |  $2000  | $4000  | $8000  
+Pro (40 hosts monitored, 20 containers monitored)  |  $400  |  $4000  | $8000  | $16,000  
+Additional hosts monitored per hour  | $10  | $100  |  $200 | $400  
+Additional containers monitored per hour  | $10  | $100  |  $200 | $400  
+  
+###### Note
+
+The prices can be for the following durations: 1 month, 12 months, 24 months, or 36 months. You can choose to offer one or more of these options for your product. The durations must be the same across each dimension. 
+
+For example, in a case where you have `ReadOnlyUsers` and `AdminUsers` dimensions, if you offer a yearly price for ReadOnlyUsers, you must offer a yearly price for `AdminUsers`, too.
+
+### Automatic renewals
+
+When customers purchase your product through AWS Marketplace using container contracts, they can agree to automatically renew the contract terms. Customers continue to pay for the entitlements every month or for 1, 2, or 3 years. 
+
+Customers can modify their renewal settings at any time. For more information, see [Modifying an existing contract](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/marketplace/latest/buyerguide/buyer-container-contracts.html#modify-existing-contract) in the _AWS Marketplace Buyer Guide_.
