The 9–10 October credit checks are now in the catalogue

These findings come from research completed on 9 and 10 October. We did not recheck issuer terms on 12 October; use the official links before spending or applying.

Google: check the separate model credit

Google’s ordinary startup Cloud credits exclude third-party Model Garden models. Its current Perks page describes a separate possible partner-model credit for qualifying Scale members, not a Start entitlement. Read the 9 October report, source links and account check.

AWS: check the awarded credit

AWS Activate terms permit eligible credits for third-party Bedrock model charges. They do not establish that your specific awarded credit covers a specific model. Check Applicable products and Application history in AWS Billing before substantial use. Read the 10 October report, source links and billing steps.

Still unknown: We cannot inspect your account allocation, expiry or bill. These are provider rules and account checks, not a guarantee of approval or payment. The catalogue retains the original verification dates; a 12 October publication date is not a new issuer check.
