How does the trial period work

Written by

Updated at June 27, 2024

The trial period is a one-time introductory offer for legal entities. You can use the trial period if you:

  • Have never purchased Yandex Cloud services.
  • Have not activated the trial period before.

The trial period allows you to use Yandex Cloud resources for free with some limitations. You pay for the resources you consume from the initial grant. After the end of the trial period, the resources will be retained but discontinued. To resume working with Yandex Cloud, you will need to fully upgrade to the paid version.

The balance of the initial grant and the number of days until the trial period expires appear on the billing account page in Yandex Cloud Billing. During the trial period, you can also view statistics on resource usage and charges based on the usage rate.
