Sign Up
When you are ready to purchase a Frame subscription, you can purchase a Frame subscription in one of three ways:
- Through My Nutanix using a Credit Card
- Through the Microsoft Azure Marketplace
- Submitting a purchase order (PO) to an Authorized Nutanix Reseller
This guide will walk you through the process of signing up for a Frame subscription, via My Nutanix using a credit card or through Microsoft Azure Marketplace.
If you purchased your Frame subscription by sending a Purchase Order (PO) to your Authorized Nutanix Reseller, you should receive a Frame Subscription Activation email. Refer to our Activate your Subscription documentation for more details.

Subscribe via Microsoft Azure Marketplace​
In order to sign up through the Azure Marketplace, you must have an existing Azure Marketplace subscription. Subscribing through the Azure Marketplace provides the benefit of managing your subscription though the SaaS page of the Azure Portal.
- If you clicked on the "Purchase Directly via Azure Marketplace" Frame subscription option, you will automatically be taken to the Frame product page in the Azure Marketplace. Click "Get it Now" under the Frame logo.
- Click “Continue” when the prompt appears requesting your permission to access basic profile information.
- Next, click "Set up + subscribe" to start the subscription process.
- Fill out the project details for your subscription as shown below. On this page, you will need to select the subscription, resource group, and resource group location. Click "Review + subscribe" once you have filled out this page.
Recurring billing must be enabled (default) in order to subscribe to Frame through the Azure Marketplace, as shown above. If recurring billing is disabled, your subscription will automatically be canceled after the first month and the Frame customer entity will be deleted. If you wish to cancel your subscription in the future, review how to cancel a Frame subscription.
- Next, enter your contact details on the Terms of Use page. Once you have reviewed the basics, click "Subscribe."
- The subscription will take a few minutes to process.
- Once the subscription has been generated, click "Configure account now." You will automatically be taken to the My Nutanix portal.
- You will be redirected to the My Nutanix portal where you will need to sign in with your credentials. If you do not have a My Nutanix user account, you will be asked to create one.
You will automatically receive an activation email (example shown below) from Microsoft which takes you to the My Nutanix portal. If you need to take a break at this point, you can always finish up the subscription process by following the link provided in the email.
- Within My Nutanix, you must specify how many named users will be accessing Nutanix Frame on a monthly basis. The minimum amount of named users is 5. If you opt for less than 5 users, you will still be billed for the 5 user minimum. Click "Next" to move to the next step.
- Next, enter company details. Click "Next."
- On the "Payment Method" step, click "Next" to confirm that your Nutanix Frame usage will be billed to your connected Microsoft Azure Subscription at the end of each monthly billing cycle.
