What payment methods does AWS accept?

3 minute read

I want to know what payment methods I can use to pay my AWS bill.

Resolution

Available payment methods vary by AWS seller of record information. You can find the name of your AWS seller of record on your monthly invoice.

Note: The payment methods that are available to you might be limited by the terms of your agreement with AWS.

Amazon.com gift cards and PayPal aren't accepted payment method for AWS services.

Prepaid credit and debit cards are an accepted payment method when they're issued by the following card issuers.

Note: It's a best practice not to use prepaid cards because if the prepaid balance runs out, then recurring payments might fail. Failed payments can result in the suspension of your AWS account.
