AWS Free Tier now offers $200 in credits and 6-month free plan to explore AWS at no cost

Today, AWS announces enhancements to its Free Tier program, offering new customers up to $200 in AWS credits to evaluate over 200 services. This program benefits a wide range of users, including cloud professionals, software developers, students, and early entrepreneurs to gain hands-on experience with AWS services, develop new skills, and build proof-of-concepts. With the new AWS Free Tier, new customers can explore AWS’s extensive portfolio of services without incurring costs, making it easier to get started with AWS.

As part of the enhanced Free Tier program, new customers receive $100 in AWS credits upon sign-up and can earn an additional $100 in credits by using services such as Amazon EC2 and Amazon Bedrock. It provides customers access to greater number of AWS services, while providing them control over the transition to paid usage. In addition to the ability to apply credits to paid services, customers continue to have access to over 30 always-free services. Additionally, the new Free Tier is integrated with AWS’s suite of Cloud Financial Management tools, making it easy to monitor and forecast future usage.

Customers can get started with the new AWS Free Tier program features by selecting the free account plan during sign-up. The free account plan expires either 6 months after sign-up or when Free Tier credits are depleted, whichever comes first. When ready, customers can easily upgrade to the paid plan with a single click to get access to more services and continue building on AWS.

The new AWS Free Tier features are generally available in all AWS Regions, except the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions and the China Regions. To learn more, visit AWS Free Tier website and AWS Free Tier documentation.
