Want to get free cloud service credits? Many Web3 developers are using this method. When registering a new AWS account, you can get a free credit of 100U. During credit card authorization, a temporary hold of 1U will be deducted for verification—don’t worry—this amount will be refunded in the end. The key is to choose the right plan during registration; be sure to check the Paid plan option on the right side. Some may wonder, why can paying plans help you get freebies? Actually, Paid plan unlocks cheaper service options like Lightsail, while the free version is more limited. The name might be misleading, but it won’t charge you extra. If you’re still concerned, you can set a limit or temporarily lock your credit card after authorization to prevent overspending. There are plenty of online tutorials detailing the registration process—just follow the steps. Remember these key points: select Paid plan, confirm that the 1U will be refunded, and lock your card after registration for safety. This way, you can confidently use the 100U credit for development or testing.

Huh? You have to choose the Paid plan to get a good deal? That's a pretty clever trick.

I've known this trick for a long time, but some people still get scared haha. The key is really to choose a paid plan or you'll lose a lot.

I've used it before, and it really is great. It just took quite a while for that 1U deduction to be refunded, I was scared I got scammed haha.

But... can we really use this 100U with peace of mind? Data shows that last year, someone filed a lawsuit due to overcharged deductions.

Haha, this 100U limit is indeed attractive, but the key is not to be deducted into a negative number.
