Commitment Free
Usage is a monthly commitment, which paired with our Buyback Guarantee on all RI purchases, means you don't have to commit to AWS or Usage to see savings!
Our Customers
Reserved Instance Management Simplified
By using the AWS RI Marketplace to broker an exchange of Reserved Instance contracts across our customer base, Usage enables customers to immediately benefit from the savings of RIs + receive the added comfort of knowing they will never be stuck paying for them! Acting like RI insurance, the BuyBack Guarantee ensures Usage customers never pay for an underutilized resource!
