# Renewing a Savings Plan
<a name="queue-sp-replace"></a>

If your active Savings Plans are nearing expiration, you can queue a purchase to start as soon as the active Savings Plans expire. This helps ensure that you have continuous Savings Plans coverage.<a name="queue-sp-replace-howto"></a>

**To queue a Savings Plan purchase to replace an expiring Savings Plan**

1. Open the Billing and Cost Management console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/costmanagement/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/costmanagement/).

1. In the navigation pane, under **Savings Plans**, choose **Inventory**.

1. Select the reference Savings Plan using the check box.

   You can only select one Savings Plan at a time. The selected Savings Plan must be in active status.

1. Choose **Actions**.

1. Choose **Renew Savings Plan**.

1. (Alternative) Choose the reference Savings Plan.

   1. On the **Savings Plan details** page, choose **Renew Savings Plan**.
**Note**  
**Renew Savings Plan** renews your plan with the same configuration, and fees are charged using the current Savings Plan rate. This automatically sets the new Savings Plan start date to be one second after the reference Savings Plan expiration.   
You might want to change your commitment amount depending on changes in your usage or Savings Plans rates from the time you purchased the reference Savings Plan.

1. On the **Cart** page, choose **Submit order**.

To learn more about the **Cart** page, see [Reviewing and finalizing Savings Plans purchases](review-purchase-cart.md).
