Purchase AWS Credits

Question

The company I work for is offering to purchase AWS credits for my personal AWS account for professional development and learning opportunities. I have to use the funds by the end of the year. Is there a way I can pre-purchase AWS credits with these funds so they don't expire at the end of the year?

Please note that there are some restrictions to using Advance Pay: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/billing-limits.html#limits-ap
