# No Charge vs Included Storage

Since different markets and projects account for storage revenue in different ways, Spark has two options for storage units that are included in the unit’s purchase.

All pre-allocated storage units are considered included with the purchase of a unit. For maximum versatility, Spark’s storage settings permit revenue reporting to be based on either additional storage units sold or all storage revenue, whether or not it is included in the purchase.

A *No Charge* storage unit is considered “free” or included in the purchase price and marking storage as *No Charge* effectively zeroes out the price of the storage unit without having to add a discount. In terms of reporting, storage units marked *No Charge* do not impact the total storage revenue or discounts.

An *Included* storage unit is also included in the purchase price, but the price of the storage unit is not zeroed out.

**Designating Pre-Allocated Storage as No Charge**

If your project does not count the price of included storage in revenue reporting, you can set these storage units to be designated as *No Charge* by default. Navigate to *Settings → Contracts* and select the *General* tab. 

In the *Storage Unit Revenue* section, use the checkbox to select “pre-allocated storage units are no-charge” and click **Update** to save the change.

For maximum flexibility, additional storage units can also be designated as *No Charge* on a one-off basis on individual contracts - see [Managing Storage on a Contract](https://knowledge.spark.re/managing-storage-on-a-contract?hsLang=en) for more details
