# Creating The Functions Consumer Contract

### Adding a Consumer

Navigate back to the subscription you just created. We need to authorize your freshly-deployed contract as an authorized consumer of your subscription's balance! Click the "Add consumer" button on the right:

Next paste in your deployed `GettingStartedFunctionsConsumer.sol` contract's address  (#1) you copied earlier and  click "Add consumer" (#2):

In the next section, you will need your Subscription ID so copy it and head back to Remix.
