Question 1

How accurate is this calculator?

Accepted Answer

The calculator provides estimates based on typical EC2, S3, and RDS usage patterns. Actual costs vary by instance type, region, storage, and data transfer.

Question 2

Should I buy one large credit account or multiple smaller ones?

Accepted Answer

For predictable workloads, one large credit account is simpler. For variable workloads, buying smaller accounts over time lets you match spend to actual usage.

Question 3

Do AWS credits cover all services?

Accepted Answer

Credits on accounts from Cloud Accounts apply across AWS services. Some programme credits have service restrictions — ask support about specifics.

Question 4

What happens when my AWS credits run out?

Accepted Answer

The account switches to standard AWS billing if a payment method is attached, or services are suspended if not. Buying another credit account from Cloud Accounts maintains continuity.
