You can join AWS Lift by registering here. Registration must be done on behalf of a company, using an email domain name that is owned by that company, and include a website domain that is owned by that company.

You may only participate in the Program if you are residing in a geographic location in which the Program is available.

You may continue to register for the Program and we will evaluate your application on a case by case basis.

AWS Lift applications are processed in the order they are received. It usually takes seven to ten business days for your application to be processed. Unfortunately, we are unable to expedite application processing. Our team is working as fast as we can to process applications.

A company may only participate in the Program once, and must not register multiple AWS accounts for the Program.

You are not eligible to participate in this Program if you receive more than US$500 in AWS Promotional Credits under other AWS programs in the last 12 calendar months or have received any AWS Promotional Credits through the AWS Activate program.

No action is required from you. AWS Credits will be auto-redeemed in your Designated AWS Account once issued to you. AWS Credits offset fees and charges incurred for the eligible AWS Services, during or following the billing cycle in which you receive the AWS Credits. You can view, track, and monitor your AWS Credits in the AWS Billing and Cost Management Console.

You may provide the relevant Designated AWS Account details to your assigned AWS Sales Representative, who will contact you after your acceptance into this Program.

AWS is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform, offering over 200 fully featured services from data centers globally. You can use your AWS Credits for eligible AWS Services from infrastructure technologies like compute, storage, and databases–to emerging technologies, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, data lakes and analytics, and Internet of Things.

AWS Credits are subject to the terms and conditions set forth at https://aws.amazon.com/awscredits/. AWS Credits have no intrinsic or monetary value.

AWS Credits cannot be applied to any fees or charges for Amazon Mechanical Turk, Ineligible AWS Support, AWS Marketplace, Amazon Route 53 domain name registration or transfer, any Services for mining for cryptocurrency, or any upfront fee for any Services such as Savings Plans and Reserved Instances (collectively, “Ineligible Services”). Any other service not listed in the AWS Billing and Cost Management Console is not covered by AWS Credits. Refer to the terms and conditions for latest details.

AWS Credits in your Designated AWS account are applied only to offset fees and charges incurred for eligible AWS Services, during or following the billing cycle, in which you receive the credits. AWS Credits cannot be used to offset or cover historical AWS bills. For example, if your AWS Credits are issued in your Designated AWS account in the month of May, your AWS Credits will not count against your AWS bills from April or previous months.

AWS Credits are applied to Reserved Instances and Saving Plans the same way as other AWS Services. Upfront fees for Reserved Instances and Savings Plans are not covered by AWS Credits.

You can find details about your AWS Credits including the exact credit amount, their expiration date, remaining balance, and the applicable AWS Services on the lowermost section of the credits page on the AWS Billing and Cost Management Console.

To start receiving AWS Credits in your Designated AWS Account, you must bill be at least US$1 within 90 days (from AWS approving your participation in the Program).

You will receive additional AWS Credits if you complete each Tier, as described in the Program Benefits. To complete a Tier:
(a) you must meet the applicable monthly AWS Usage, and
(b) all AWS Credits issued under a previous Tier must be fully utilized, and
(c) if applicable, you must meet the other requirements for that Tier, as described in the Program Benefits, and
(d) you can not have an outstanding balance on your AWS Account.

All AWS Promotional Credits issued as a part of AWS Lift Program will expire 12 calendar months after the “First Credit Issuance Month,” which is the month in which you receive AWS Lift Credits for the first time. E.g., if your US$1 billing falls on any day in October, you will receive your first tranche of AWS Promotional Credits in November, and the expiry date for all the credits received from the program will be on 30th November the following year, the “Credits Expiry Month.”

No. AWS Credits cannot be transferred into another AWS account. You may not sell, license, rent, or transfer AWS Credits. If you violate this policy, your AWS Credits will be revoked.

All customers admitted to the program are eligible for up to US$83,500 in AWS Credits, which are issued over 7 tranches. The US$750 is a starter benefit in the first tier. You will keep receiving further benefits, as you increase your AWS Usage. Please see Program Benefits on details of the tiers.

You can complete a Tier in any calendar month within the Program Period. You do not have to reach every tier sequentially nor reach the tiers consistently every month. Once the AWS Credits have been issued, you can choose to utilize the AWS Credits according to your business needs.

AWS is unable to extend the expiration date of AWS Credits, even if there are remaining AWS Credits left unused.

AWS Credits cannot be refunded or re-issued into your Designated AWS Account, even if your AWS Credits were incorrectly used or accidentally consumed.
