Registering an account in Yandex.Cloud

To create a billing account:

1. Open the Yandex.Cloud management console.

2. Log in to your Yandex ID or Yandex.Connect account. If you don't have an account yet, sign up.

   • Your phone number must be linked to this account. For detailed instructions, see Help for Yandex ID and Yandex.Connect.
   • If you use a social network profile to log in to Yandex, create a username and password.

3. In the management console, go to Billing.

4. On the List of accounts page, click Create account. Fill in your information:

   • Select the payer's country.
   • Enter the name of the billing account. The name is displayed in the list of your billing accounts and helps you select the one you need.

5. If in the Payers section you see a list of available payers, you can select one of them or add a new one.

   To add a payer:

   • Select the payer type: Business or entrepreneur.
     If the payer is a non-resident of Russia or Kazakhstan, only one payer type is available: Business (non-resident of Russia).

   • Select a payment method: Bank card or Bank transfer. You can change your payment method any time after creating a billing account.

   • Enter the legal information of your organization.

     Note

     Carefully fill in your contact information and payment details. This information is required not only to contact you, but also to issue payment invoices and send financial documents.

   • If you select the Bank card payment method, link your corporate bank card:

     • Click Add card.
     • Enter the bank card details: the 16-digit number, expiration date and CVV (on the back of the card).
     • Click Link.
     • Confirm that the card is corporate and you are authorized to use it.

     We accept Visa, MasterCard and MIR bank cards.

     To make sure your bank card is valid, a small amount will be held in your account. This amount will not be debited and will become available once verification is complete and the funds are released. The period for releasing the held funds depends on how and when your bank handles transactions.

6. Click Activate.

   If you select the Bank transfer payment method or if the payer is a non-resident of Russia or Kazakhstan, you will receive an email with further instructions at the email address specified in your Yandex or Yandex.Connect account. In this case, it may take up to three business days to activate your billing account.
