AWS Onboarding via Mercurie

Welcome - this page summarises how AWS billing will work once you onboard with Mercurie, what we need from you, and when each step happens.

AWS Onboarding via Mercurie

WHAT YOU GET

  • A single Naira invoice each month for your AWS usage from Mercurie.

  • Your existing AWS account stays exactly as it is. No migration, no downtime, no architectural change.

  • Mercurie's AWS Partner status - Support escalation, Solutions Architect access, and APN credit programmes available on request.

HOW IT WORKS - AWS BILLING TRANSFER

AWS Billing Transfer is a native AWS mechanism. Your AWS account remains in your name, but the monthly bill will be in Mercurie’s name and managed by Mercurie's payer account. Mercurie settles directly with AWS and invoices you in NGN. The transfer is reversible at any calendar-month boundary.

ONBOARDING STEPS

  • Sign engagement letter & complete KYC. We will send a short MSA / order form and collect basic compliance documents.
  • Share your AWS payer account ID. 12-digit account ID of the AWS account that currently receives your AWS bill.
  • Accept the Billing Transfer invitation.
  • Mercurie sends an invitation from our AWS Organization.
  • You accept it in your AWS Billing console → Preferences and Settings → Billing transfers → Inbound.
  • Acceptance must complete at least 48 hours before the start date.
  • Activation. From the start of the next calendar month, AWS bills Mercurie for your usage. You receive your first NGN invoice from Mercurie at the beginning of the month or at the end month depending on the Mercurie payment plan you’re on.
