Metered or usage-based billing options
The supported payment methods for metered billing:
- Invoice – Managed accounts only
- Credit card – Unmanaged accounts, or as a nonrecurring method for managed accounts
- PayPal – Unmanaged accounts, or as a nonrecurring method for managed accounts
- Azure Subscription ID – Not available for personal accounts
- Automated Clearing House (ACH) – Managed accounts only
Accounts with volume licenses and metered billing can use multiple payment methods.
- For unmanaged accounts, you might pay for volume licenses with a credit card or PayPal, and metered usage with an Azure Subscription ID.
- For managed accounts, you might pay for volume licenses via invoice, and metered usage via Azure Subscription ID.
Copilot standalone accounts, which traditionally used Azure Subscription IDs, can now also pay by credit card. Contact your GitHub representative for details.
