Yandex Cloud Free Trial Initial Grant

Overview

Yandex Cloud issues a one-time initial grant to new billing accounts, spendable on compute, storage, databases, networking, and the AI stack (Yandex AI Studio, SpeechKit, Vision, Translate, DataSphere). The grant is issued once, when you create your first billing account, provided you have never purchased Yandex Cloud services and have not previously activated a trial.

Grant Amounts

Business accounts, by residence and the payment method selected at billing-account creation:

Card-tier grants exclude GPU clusters, paid support plans, and paid Yandex Cloud Marketplace products. Wire-transfer grants can be used for any Yandex Cloud service.

Eligibility & Notes

• The trial period is a one-time introductory offer for businesses (legal entities) and is enabled only when creating the first billing account.
• Per the official docs, the trial period is available only to businesses that selected wire transfer as the payment method; adding a credit or debit card to a business account means no trial period and paid consumption begins immediately.
• An individual and a legal entity owned by the same person cannot both receive the grant.
• The docs do not publish a fixed trial length or grant total; the remaining grant amount and trial days are shown on the billing account page in the console. The SLA does not apply during the trial.

How to Get Started

Create a Yandex ID, create your first billing account at yandex.cloud, choose the account type and payment method, then launch resources from the console.
