Why does my AWS account for India show "Complete your registration" even though I activated my account?

Resolution

To resolve this issue, verify your payment method so that your service subscription can complete. Choose one of the following options based on your preferred payment method.

Option 1: Verify or add a UPI payment method

1. Open the AWS Billing and Cost Management console.
2. In the navigation pane, choose Payment preferences.
3. Choose Add payment method.
4. Choose UPI AutoPay.
5. Enter a billing address or select an address that already exists.
6. Choose Add payment method.
7. Choose Verify.

If AWS didn't verify, then follow the steps to set up and verify Unified Payments Interface (UPI) in Use UPI to make a payment. If AWS verified your UPI payment method but didn't activate your services after 24 hours, then follow the steps in Option 2 to add a card.

Option 2: Add and verify a credit or debit card (recommended)

1. Open the AWS Billing and Cost Management console.
2. In the navigation pane, choose Payment preferences.
3. Choose Add payment method.
4. Choose Credit / Debit Card.
5. Enter your card number, expiration date, security code (CVV), and the name of the cardholder.
6. Provide your consent to save card information for future payments.
7. In the Billing address section, enter your name, billing address, and phone number.
8. Review your card information, and then choose Add payment method.

Your bank's website opens so that you can verify the card. You will receive a temporary charge in Indian rupees for verification.

Note: You will receive a refund to your card for the verification charge within 5–7 business days. For more information, see Managing your payments in India.

After payment method verification

After payment method verification is successful, complete the following steps:

1. Sign out of the AWS Management Console, and then sign back in.
2. Confirm that the "Complete your registration" message no longer appears.
3. Try to access an AWS service to confirm that your account registration is complete.
   Note: It can take a short time after verification for the service subscription to complete. If you still see the "Complete your registration" message after you verify your payment method and sign back in, then contact AWS Support.
