Set up billing through AWS Marketplace

This page shows you how to set up pay-as-you-go billing for your Pinecone organization through the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace. To commit to annual spending, contact Pinecone.

​

Upgrade to a paid plan and connect to AWS

If you are upgrading from the Starter plan, you can connect your organization to AWS:

1. In the Pinecone console, go to Settings > Billing.

2. In the Billing Contact section, click Connect to cloud marketplace.

3. Select Amazon Web Services.

4. Click Continue to marketplace.

5. Click the Set up your account button in the top right. This takes you to an AWS-specific Pinecone sign-up page.

   If the Pinecone subscription page shows a message stating, “You are currently subscribed to this offer,” contact your team members to request an invitation to the existing AWS-linked organization. The Set up your account button is clickable, but Pinecone does not create a new AWS-linked organization.

6. Choose an authentication method. Use the same authentication method as your existing Pinecone organization.

7. Select an organization from the list. You can only connect to organizations that are on the Starter plan.

   Alternatively, you can opt to create a new organization.

8. Click Connect to Pinecone.

   Follow the prompts. Once your organization is connected, you will receive a confirmation message.

1. Go to the Pinecone listing on the AWS Marketplace.

2. Click View purchase options in the top right.
