# Archera Guaranteed Commitments

Archera Guaranteed Commitments have two variable components — a **term length** and a **premium** — that are inversely related. The longer the term length, the lower the premium, and vice versa: shorter term lengths have higher premiums.

The **Guaranteed Commitment Premium** is the difference between the standard Savings Rate of the underlying standard RI/SP and the net savings rate of the Guaranteed Commitment. You can see the Guaranteed Commitment premiums on your invoice page.

Keep in mind, Guaranteed Commitment premiums are only assessed on **realized** savings. Meaning — if for some reason you can't use the underlying infrastructure, you aren't responsible for the premium.
