AWS now allows customers in Europe to pay For their usage in advance

AWS customers in Europe can now use Advance Pay, which allows them to pay for their AWS usage in advance and automate future invoice payments. With Advance Pay, customers can add funds to their account, which AWS will automatically use to pay invoices as they become due. This feature provides customers in Europe with more flexibility in managing their AWS expenses and simplifies the payment process for ongoing cloud services.

Advance Pay offers several benefits to AWS customers in Europe. It allows for better financial planning and budgeting by enabling upfront payments for anticipated usage. This feature can be particularly useful for organizations that prefer to pay in advance for services or need to manage their cloud spending more proactively. Additionally, the automatic payment of invoices reduces administrative overhead and ensures timely payments, helping customers maintain good standing with AWS.

With the launch, Advance Pay is now available for both AWS Europe and AWS Inc customers.

Getting started with Advance Pay is straightforward. Customers can register for the service from the Payments page in the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. To add funds, users can generate a funding document and submit an advance payment through electronic fund transfer. For more information on managing Advance Pay, including viewing funding history and setting up recurring payments, customers can refer to the “Managing your Advance Pay” section in the AWS Billing and Cost Management user guide. To learn more about Advance Pay or to get started, visit the AWS Billing and Cost Management console.
