The contract is an agreement contract between Amtgard International and a freehold or between an Amtgard kingdom and an established chapter. An approved contract allows a group to use the Amtgard trademark in promoting their chapter, the license to create copies of the Amtgard Rules of Play for running games, and access to some online tools such as the Online Record Keeper.

More information on the contracting process and starting a chapter are available on the official Starting a Chapter page at Amtgard.com
