# AWS credit expiry and the December 31, 2027 deadline

Plan redemption and eligible usage around the stated AWS expiry, then verify the date in your AWS account.

The seller lists **December 31, 2027** as the expiry for both the **US$25** and **US$100 AWS** codes. Plan to redeem well before this date.

## Redemption does not restart the expiry

AWS promotional credit cannot be redeemed after its designated expiry. Redeeming a code does not give it a new fixed validity period. AWS says redeemed credit can offset eligible charges in the entire billing cycle in which it expires. See the [official expiration terms](https://aws.amazon.com/awscredits/) .

Do not leave redemption to the final day. The listed offer date does not specify a cutoff time or time zone, so allow time to resolve account or code issues.

## Check the date in AWS Billing

After applying the code, select it under **Billing and Cost Management → Credits** and record its **Expiration date** alongside the credit name. AWS documents these fields in its [credit details guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/useconsolidatedbilling-credits.html) .

Keep that record with your purchase confirmation. If the displayed date differs from the advertised offer, contact [the seller](https://awscreditcode.com/contact/)  with the order reference and the relevant details.

## Make a practical usage plan

Estimate how much eligible usage you need before the deadline. Buying a larger value makes sense when you have a workload that will use it within the available period.

Set a reminder to review the balance and running resources before expiry. Decide whether to keep, resize, or retire each workload, and check backup requirements before removing data.

Use the [AWS budgeting guide](https://awscreditcode.com/guides/cloud-cost-optimization-basics/)  to plan ongoing costs beyond the credit.
