#### Select and review a component

In the **Partner Library**, from the **Component Overview** go to the selected component to view its details. Review the information about what is supported and what the payment plan is.

{% hint style="info" %}
At the bottom of the component details page, there is an outline of the purchase process so that you know what to expect. Typically, the process takes up to a few days to complete and involves a Sales Representative contacting you to finalize the contract details and grant a regulatory licence.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

#### Optional: Request a demo

If you're interested but need more details before making a decision, you can request a demo of the component. Choose the **Request Demo** option.
