Managing your payment and billing information

Learn how to manage your payment information and history, and update your billing contacts.

Who can use this feature?

The enhanced billing platform is available to all enterprise accounts, and organizations owned by enterprise accounts, created after June 2, 2024. Enterprises that participated in the beta program also have access to the enhanced billing platform.

Prerequisites for paying through Azure

You must be new to GitHub Enterprise Cloud to begin with usage-based billing through an Azure subscription. If your company already uses GitHub, you can use GitHub Enterprise Importer to migrate your resources to a new subscription that bills through Azure. For more information, see "About GitHub Enterprise Importer."
Prepaid usage is not currently available for usage-based billing through Azure.
You must know your Azure subscription ID. For more information, see the following documentation or contact Azure support.
- "Connecting an Azure subscription"
- Get subscription and tenant IDs in the Azure portal in the Microsoft Docs

Connecting your Azure subscription

After creation of your new enterprise on GitHub.com, to begin usage-based billing through Azure, you must connect your Azure subscription.

Important

If you don't use Enterprise Managed Users, connection of an Azure subscription will immediately end your trial and begin paid usage.

For more information, see "Connecting an Azure subscription."

What does my Azure invoice look like?

After you connect your Azure subscription, usage for GitHub's products will appear on your Azure invoice, summarized by product family. For example, if you use this billing arrangement for GitHub Enterprise Cloud and GitHub Advanced Security, usage and price excluding tax for each line item will appear as follows.

Product Family Usage Charges	Total (excluding Tax)
GH ENTERPRISE	AMOUNT
GH ADVANCED SECURITY	AMOUNT

For more information about your Azure invoice, see Understand terms on your Microsoft Azure invoice in the Microsoft Docs.

The GitHub products on your Azure invoice are also MACC-eligible. For more information, see Track your Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC) in the Microsoft Docs.
