AWS launches Billing Transfer for multi-organization billing and cost management
Today AWS announces Billing Transfer, a new feature that allows customers to centrally manage and pay bills across multiple AWS organizations.
With Billing Transfer, customers operating in multi-organization environments can designate a single management account to centrally manage and pay for bills for multiple organizations, including invoice collection, payment processing, and detailed cost analysis.
Billing Transfer makes billing and cost management operations more efficient and scalable, while ensuring individual management accounts maintain complete security autonomy over their organizations. To protect proprietary pricing information, Billing Transfer is integrated with AWS Billing Conductor. This integration enables billing administrators to control how the cost data will be seen by their AWS organizations and implement advanced cost allocation strategies across multiple AWS organizations. For AWS Billing Transfer customers, there is no cost to use AWS Billing Conductor when they choose an AWS managed pricing plan. If they choose a Customer managed pricing plan, there will be a fee of $50 per AWS Organization. AWS offers a free trial for Billing Transfer through May 31, 2026. During this period, both AWS managed and Customer managed pricing plans in Billing Conductor are available at no charge. Starting June 1, 2026, Billing Transfer customers will be charged by the number of AWS organizations with Customer managed pricing plan attached to it.
If you’re using Billing Conductor on its own without Billing Transfer, you will still follow the standard per-account pricing model regardless of the type of pricing plan used (see pricing details).
Billing Transfer is available today in all public AWS Regions, excluding the AWS GovCloud (US), China (Beijing) and China (Ningxia) Regions.
