Making payments, checking unapplied funds, and viewing your payment history in AWS Europe
You can use the Payments page of the AWS Billing and Cost Management console to perform the following tasks for all payment types:
Make a payment
AWS Europe charges your default payment method automatically at the beginning of each month. If that charge doesn't process successfully, you can use the console to update your payment method and make a payment.
Note
If you pay by SEPA direct debit, AWS provides you with your invoice and initiates the charge to your payment method either the following day or the invoice due date, whichever is latest. It can take up to 5 business days for your payment to succeed. For more information, see Managing your SEPA direct debit payment method.
Before making a payment, ensure that the payment method that you want automatically charged in the future is set as your default payment method. If you're using a credit card, confirm that your credit card isn't expired. For more information, see Designate a default payment method and Managing your AWS Europe credit card payment methods.
To make a payment

-
If there are outstanding invoices, select the invoice that you want to pay in the Payments due table, and then choose Complete payment.

On the Complete a payment page, your default payment method is selected if it's eligible for you to use to pay the invoice. If you want to use a different payment method or select an eligible payment method, choose Change.

After your bank processes your payment, you're redirected to the Payments page.
Say that you pay by SEPA direct debit, and you receive an email from AWS Europe saying that AWS Europe can't charge your bank account and will try again. Then, work with your bank to understand what went wrong.
Or, suppose that you receive an email saying that AWS Europe failed the last attempt to charge your bank account. Choose Verify and pay on the console to pay your invoice. If you have questions about issues with charging your bank account or paying an overdue balance, create a case in the Support Center
