You either offer your solution under the Standard Contract **or** your own terms and conditions.

 #### Standard Contract Amendments
 
 Standard Contract Amendments let publishers select the Standard Contract terms for simplicity and customize the terms for their product or business. Customers only need to review the amendments to the contract, if they have already reviewed and accepted the Microsoft Standard Contract.
 
 There are two kinds of amendments available for commercial marketplace publishers:
 
-- Universal Amendments – These amendments are applied universally to the Standard Contract for all customers. Universal amendments are shown to every customer of the offer in the purchase flow. Customers must accept the terms of the Standard Contract and the amendment before they can use your offer.
-- Custom Amendments – These amendments are special amendments to the Standard Contract that are targeted to specific customers only via Azure tenant IDs. Publishers can choose the tenant they want to target. Only customers from the tenant will be presented with the custom amendment terms in the offer’s purchase flow.  Customers must accept the terms of the Standard Contract and the amendment(s) before they can use your offer.

 - **Tenant IDs** (required) – Each custom amendment can be targeted to up to 20 tenant IDs. If you add a custom amendment, you must provide at least one tenant ID. The tenant ID identifies your customer in Azure. You can ask your customer for this ID and they can find it by navigating to portal.azure.com > Azure Active Directory > Properties. The directory ID value is the tenant ID (for example, 50c464d3-4930-494c-963c-1e951d15360e). You can also look up the organization's tenant ID of your customer by using their domain name URL at [What is my Microsoft Azure and Office 365 tenant ID?](https://www.whatismytenantid.com).
 - **Description** (optional) – Optionally provide a friendly description for the tenant ID that helps you identify the customer you're targeting with the amendment.

We'll typically send any payment due in a given month by the 15th day of that month. Note that payments generally take between 3 to 10 additional business days to reach your payout account.

If you choose to put your payouts on hold, we’ll continue to record any revenue that you earn and provide the details in your **Payout summary**.

-To place your payments on hold, go to **Developer settings**. Under **Payout and tax**, in the **Payout and tax profile assignment** section, locate the program for which you would like payments held. Click the **Hold my Payment** checkbox to hold payments for this program. You can change your payout hold status at any time, but be aware that your decision will impact the next monthly payout. For example, if you want to hold April’s payout, make sure to set your payout hold status to **On** before the end of March.
