# Get started with StreamNative Cloud on AWS Marketplace with Pay-As-You-Go

You can access the StreamNative Cloud product through Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace. If you already have an AWS account, you can get started by subscribing to the StreamNative Cloud product in AWS Marketplace as detailed below. After subscribing and connecting your AWS account to your StreamNative Cloud account, you can view and pay your bills on the Billing Dashboard in your AWS account. This subscription uses a Pay-As-You-Go billing model, so your bills will vary depending on usage.

## Prerequisites

To use this service, you must complete the following:

* Have an AWS account with an account ID enabled for purchases. Contact your billing administrator if you have questions about your AWS account.
* Create a StreamNative Cloud account by following the sign-up of the [StreamNative Cloud Quick Start](/cloud/get-started/quickstart-console#sign-up).
* Log in to both [AWS Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace) and [StreamNative Cloud Console](https://console.streamnative.cloud/?defaultMethod=signup).

## Procedures

This section describes how to get up and running with StreamNative Cloud on AWS Marketplace using a self-service Pay-As-You-Go account.

### Subscribe to the StreamNative Cloud service

### Create your organization

<Note title="Note">
  Currently, you cannot link your AWS entitlement to an existing organization on StreamNative Console. To bind to an existing organization, [submit a ticket](https://support.streamnative.io/hc/en-us/requests/new) with this request to the support team.
</Note>

Depending on your StreamNative Cloud account setup, do one of the followings:

</Note>

The instance name starts with a lowercase letter, contains any combination of lowercase letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and hyphens (-), and must be 4-10 characters.

6. Click **Cluster Location** to start the cluster creation process.

7. On the **Cluster Location** page, enter a name for your cluster, select the cluster location, and then click **Cluster Size**. The cluster name starts with a lowercase letter, contains any combination of lowercase letters (a-z), numbers (0-9), and hyphens (-), and must be 4-10 characters.
