| 13 | +> Legacy Docker plans apply to Docker subscribers who last purchased or renewed |
| 14 | +> their subscription before December 10, 2024. These subscribers will keep |

| 16 | +> after December 10, 2024. For more details about legacy |

| 20 | +Docker subscriptions let you scale your consumption as your needs evolve. Except |
| 21 | +for legacy Docker subscription plans, all paid Docker subscriptions come with |
| 22 | +access to Docker Hub, Docker Build Cloud, and Testcontainers Cloud with a base |
| 23 | +amount of consumption. You can scale your consumption at any time during your subscription period. All purchased consumption expires at the end of your subscription term. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +You can scale consumption for the following: |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +- Docker Build Cloud minutes |
| 28 | +- Docker Testcontainers Cloud runtime minutes |
| 29 | +- Docker Hub storage and image pull |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +## Add Docker Build Cloud minutes |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +You can pre-purchase Docker Build Cloud minutes in the Docker Build Cloud Dashboard: |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +1. Sign in to [Docker Home](https://app.docker.com/). |
| 36 | +2. Under Settings and administration, select **Billing**. |
| 37 | +3. On the plans and usage page, select **View build minutes**. |
| 38 | + This will launch the Docker Build Cloud settings page. |
| 39 | +4. Select **Add minutes**. |
| 40 | +5. Select your additional minute amount, then **Continue to payment**. |
| 41 | +6. Enter your payment details and billing address. |
| 42 | +7. Review your order and select **Pay**. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +Your additional minutes will now display on the Build minutes page. |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +## Add Docker Testcontainers Cloud runtime minutes |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +You can pre-purchase Testcontainers Cloud runtime minutes by [contacting |
| 49 | + sales](https://www.docker.com/pricing/contact-sales/). In addition to |
| 50 | +pre-purchase, you are able to use as many minutes as you need on-demand. The |
| 51 | +usage will be billed at the end of each monthly billing cycle. On-demand usage |
| 52 | +is billed at a higher rate than pre-purchased capacity. To avoid on-demand |
| 53 | +charges, pre-purchase additional minutes. |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +## Add Docker Hub storage or image pulls |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +You can pre-purchase images pulls and storage by [contacting |
| 58 | +sales](https://www.docker.com/pricing/contact-sales/). |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +In addition to pre-purchase, you are able to use as much resources as you need |
| 61 | +on-demand. On-demand usage is billed at a higher rate than pre-purchased |
| 62 | +capacity. To avoid on-demand charges, pre-purchase additional storage or image |
| 63 | +pulls. |
