How do I know if I can access the new billing platform?
The enhanced billing platform is available to:
- All enterprise accounts, and their organizations, created after June 2, 2024
- Enterprises that participated in the public preview program
Beginning in September 2024, GitHub will migrate remaining enterprises to the new billing platform. Enterprises will receive a notice 30 days before their migration. See the GitHub blog.
Enterprise owners, organization owners, and billing managers can check for access to the enhanced platform:
- In the top-right corner of GitHub, click your profile photo.
- Depending on your environment, click Your enterprise, or click Your enterprises then click the enterprise you want to view.
If you have access, there will be a Billing & Licensing option in the sidebar. If you do not have access to the new, enhanced billing platform, to find out more about your billing platform, see About billing on GitHub.
