Creating a new billing account

To create a billing account:

1. Go to Yandex Cloud Billing.

2. Log in to your Yandex ID or Yandex 360 account. If you do not have an account yet, sign up and create an organization in Yandex Cloud Organization for you to work in. If using your social network profile to log in to Yandex, create a username and password.

3. On the Billing accounts page, click Create billing account. Fill in your information:

   • Enter the name of the billing account. The name is displayed in the list of your billing accounts and helps you select the one you need.

   • In the Organization field, select the organization to create a billing account for.

   • Select the country that the payer is a resident of.

     Within a single user account, all payers must pay in the same currency.

4. If you see a list of available payers in the Payer section, you can select one of them or add a new one.

5. Select the payer type: Business or individual entrepreneur.

6. Select the payment method: Bank card or Bank transfer. You can change your payment method any time after creating a billing account.

7. Click Next.

8. If you selected Bank card as a payment method:

   1. Enter the legal information of your organization and your contact details.

      Note

      Carefully fill in your contact information and payment details. This information is required not only to contact you, but also to issue payment invoices and send financial documents.

   2. Link your corporate bank card:

      • Click Add card.
      • Specify your card details: 16-digit number, expiration date, and CVV (you can find it on the back side of your card).
      • Click Link.

      • Confirm that the card is a corporate one and you are authorized to use it.

      • Click Next.

      We accept Mir, Visa, and MasterCard.

      • Residents of Russia make payments in RUB and can only use bank cards issued by Russian banks. Customers with tax residency in the Republic of Belarus pay for Yandex Cloud services in RUB with their Belcard cards issued in the Republic of Belarus or Mir cards issued in the Russian Federation.
      • Residents of Kazakhstan make payments in KZT and can only use bank cards issued by non-Russian banks.
      • Non-residents of Russia and Kazakhstan make payments in USD and can only use credit or debit cards issued by non-Russian banks.

      To make sure your bank card is valid, we will hold a small amount on your account. This amount will not be charged and will become available once the verification is complete. The amount of time required to release the funds held depends on your bank.

   3. Enter your current email address and phone number. Contact details are required not only to reach you, but also to issue payment invoices and send financial documents. If you have already signed up for Yandex Cloud, check that your contact details are correct.

   2. Enter your current email address and phone number. Contact details are required not only to reach you, but also to issue payment invoices and send financial documents. If you have already signed up for Yandex Cloud, check that your contact details are correct.

10. If this is your first Yandex Cloud billing account, you are eligible for a trial period. After it expires, the access to your resources will be suspended. To resume operation, you will need to switch to the paid version.

11. Click Create.

    If you select the Bank transfer payment method or if the payer is a non-resident of Russia and Kazakhstan, further instructions will be emailed to you at the address specified in your Yandex or Yandex 360 account. Once your documents have been verified, you can activate your billing account and start using Yandex Cloud.
