How usage of Copilot licenses is measured
Usage of Copilot licenses is measured by the number of seats used.
Personal accounts
- You choose monthly or yearly billing.
- Plan changes (upgrades, downgrades, or switching between monthly and yearly) take effect immediately, with proration applied where relevant.
- Canceling a monthly plan keeps access until the end of the cycle; yearly plans run until the end of the paid term.
For details on billing and proration, see 개별 GitHub Copilot 플랜에 대한 청구 정보.
Organizations and enterprises
- A seat is a license for one user.
- Organizations and enterprises are billed for the number of assigned seats at the end of each monthly billing cycle.
- If a user has seats in multiple organizations within the same enterprise, the enterprise is only billed once per cycle.
- If both a Copilot Business and a Copilot Enterprise seat are assigned, only the enterprise seat is billed.
For more information about seat assignment, see GitHub Copilot 사용자 할당.
Using more than your plan's included seats
Individual plans are tied to a single account and can’t include additional seats. To license multiple users, upgrade to an organizational plan.
For organizations and enterprises:
- You can assign additional Copilot seats at any time.
- Additional seats are billed immediately on a prorated basis for the rest of the current billing cycle.
- Assigned users gain access to Copilot features right away.
For details about how added seats are billed, see GitHub Copilot 라이선스 변경.
Paying for Copilot licenses
You pay for additional licenses using the payment method set up for your GitHub account. See 결제 및 청구 정보 관리.
Managing your budget for Copilot licenses
To help manage your budget for Copilot licenses, consider the following strategies.
Personal accounts
- You can set budgets for your personal account to receive email alerts at 75%, 90%, and 100% of the budget.
- Budgets help you monitor spending but do not stop license charges.
For more information about using budgets to control spending, see 예산을 설정하여 요금제 제품에 대한 지출 제어.
Organizations and enterprises
- Owners and billing managers can set budgets at the organization or enterprise level, or by cost center.
- Budgets for licenses are monitoring-only: spending can exceed the budget, but alerts notify you when thresholds are reached.
- Use cost centers to track spending across teams or initiatives.
