Can I reuse my credit or debit card for another AWS account?

No. If your card has already been used on AWS, you won’t be eligible for the $100 credits. Use a fresh card or borrow one from a family member or friend.

How long are the AWS $100 credits valid?

They are valid for six months from the date your new AWS account is created.

Free vs Paid AWS plan — which should I choose?

The free plan is valid only for six months and may restrict access to some services. The paid plan gives full access but still consumes your $100 credits first, so you won't be billed until the credits are exhausted.

Where can I see my AWS credits?

Go to the Billing & Cost Management dashboard in the AWS console and open the Credits section to view your remaining balance.

Why Create an AWS Free Tier Account?

When you sign up for a new AWS account, Amazon provides you with $100 worth of credits that you can use across various AWS services for six months. This allows you to gain hands-on experience, complete practical labs, and experiment with cloud computing without worrying about billing. Additionally, by completing certain AWS activities, you can earn an extra $100 credit, effectively doubling your free usage to $200.

Prerequisites for Creating Your AWS Free Tier Account

Before you begin the sign-up process, it’s important to prepare the following:

A fresh email ID: Your email should never have been used to create an AWS account before. If you’ve previously created an account with a particular email, you must use a new one.
A valid credit or debit card: This card must also be fresh to AWS, meaning it hasn’t been used for any other AWS account. The card is required only for verification and a small refundable charge ($1 or ₹2) will be made.
Mobile number: You can use the same mobile number across multiple accounts if needed.
Identity proof: Such as a PAN card or Aadhaar card in India, or an equivalent document depending on your country. This must match the name you provide during account creation.

If you don’t have a fresh card, consider borrowing one from a family member or friend for the verification step. The cardholder’s name can be different from yours; just ensure the card supports online and international transactions.

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your AWS Account

1. Start the Sign-Up Process

Visit aws.amazon.com and click on "Sign in to the Console". Since you don’t have an account yet, select the option to create a new AWS account. Enter your fresh email ID and choose a secure password. You will receive a verification code via email—make sure to check your inbox, spam, or junk folders to find it.

2. Choose Your Account Type and Fill Personal Details

Select whether the account is for personal use or business. Provide your full name, mobile number, and address. Ensure all details are accurate because they will be cross-verified with your identity proof document.

3. Payment Method Verification

Enter your credit/debit card details, including expiration date and CVV code. Remember to:

Enable online and international transactions on your card.
Not save the card for future payments to avoid unintended charges.
Use a card that hasn’t been previously registered with AWS.

4. Identity Verification

Upload a scanned copy or photo of your identity proof that matches the name you entered. AWS uses third-party services to validate this information. Next, verify your mobile number by choosing SMS or voice call OTP. Enter the received code to complete this step.

5. Choose Support Plan

Select the Basic Support plan, which is free and sufficient for most learners and beginners.

I have joine Attari classes for the second time. First time it was classroom based training for VMware and now online course for AWS. I would say the quality of this classes is one of the best in terms of sharing the practical approach and explaining the theory. This concept is very less. If a person wants to learn VMware and AWS along with Practicals, then I would recommend him or her to join Attari Classes and bring a turning point in his career. Each and every concept will be thought at Attari Classes. Thank You Maqsood Sir.

If you want to be more accurate and professional in your IT Journey, this is the best place to come. I have attended Online Training of AWS from Attari Classes and I am more clear about the concepts in the cloud. The best thing is even the training is online, the Trainer Maqsood Sir, is very pro-efficient to reach out at each and every participant in the training session to get the all things done PRACTICALLY by every student. If any student fail to do the practical or misunderstood he use to take remote and make him understand the concept. Apart from the session if any concept is not clear then their is Learning Mangement System (LMS) where we can find all recorded lectures. Trainer is available even after the training session on WhatsAap. I give 5 star to Trainer - Mr. Maqsood Sir and Attari Classes
