AWS Certificate Manager

AWS Certificate Manager Pricing

AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) makes it easy for you to centrally manage your SSL/TLS certificates. By default, ACM issues certificates that can only be used with services integrated with ACM are issued at no cost to you.

If you issue an exportable public certificate, there is a charge at certificate issuance and again when the certificate renews. You can use exportable public certificates with integrated AWS services and export them for use with any workloads that require TLS certificates. You can call the export-certificate API or use the AWS Management Console to export the public certificate and get access to the private keys of the certificate. The first 10,000 API calls are available at no additional charge. Subsequent 10,000 API call increments are charged per account per month.

If you manage AWS Private Certificate Authority (Private CA) through ACM, refer to the AWS Private CA Pricing page for more details and examples.

Pricing examples for export of ACM issued public certificates:

Example 1 : Certificate with one fully qualified domain name (FQDN): example.com

On issuance, this exportable public certificate will cost 1*($15) = $15.

Example 2 : Certificate with one wildcard name: *.example.com

On issuance, this exportable public certificate will cost 1*($149) = $149

Example 3 : Certificate with both FQDN and Wildcard name: example.com, *.example.com and example1.com

There are two standard FQDNs and one wildcard name in this certificate. On issuance, these exportable public certificates will cost 2*($15) + $149 = $179.

Example 4 : API usage – 40,000 export-certificate API calls made in a month

The first 10,000 API calls of export-certificate per account are at no cost. Each subsequent 10K API calls costs $0.50 each.

For 40K-10k = 30k API calls per account in the month, this will cost 3*($0.50) = $1.50.
