AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance type you run. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, so your cost scales with the compute, memory, or storage capacity you choose. Smaller instances like t3.nano bill at a lower hourly rate, while larger and specialized instances like GPU, high-memory, and bare-metal types bill higher. There is no upfront commitment; you are charged only for the hours each instance runs. The software price is added on top of the underlying AWS infrastructure cost for whichever instance you select.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit map to for billing on this product?
Each unit is one running EC2 instance of the type you select, billed per hour. The rate reflects that specific size, such as t3.micro or r6i.metal. Each running instance meters its own hours separately. The count is the number of instances you launch multiplied by the hours each runs.
Am I charged the software fee when an instance is stopped or paused?
The hourly software charge applies only while an instance runs. Stopped or fully powered-off instances do not accrue the software fee. Underlying AWS storage costs for attached volumes may still apply while an instance is stopped, but that is separate from this software charge.
If I run several instances of different sizes, how do the charges combine?
Each instance bills independently at its own hourly rate for the hours it runs. The charges add together on one invoice. There is no shared pool or tier that spans instances. Larger or specialized types, such as GPU or bare-metal, carry higher hourly rates than smaller types like t3.nano.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
