The foundation of your bill is the number of user accounts using your enterprise.
O GitHub usa um modelo de licenciamento de usuário único. Com o plano do GitHub Enterprise, você tem o direito de usar o GitHub Enterprise Cloud e o GitHub Enterprise Server. Sua provisão do GitHub Enterprise Cloud inclui uma implantação, no GitHub.com ou no GHE.com.
O GitHub determina quantas estações licenciadas você está consumindo de acordo com o número de usuários exclusivos nas suas implantações. Cada usuário consome apenas uma licença, não importa o número de instâncias do GitHub Enterprise Server usadas pelo usuário ou o número de organizações das quais o usuário é membro na sua implantação do GitHub Enterprise Cloud. Esse modelo permite que cada pessoa use várias implantações do GitHub Enterprise sem gerar custos extras.
To ensure the same user isn't consuming more than one license for multiple enterprise deployments, you can synchronize license usage between your GitHub Enterprise Server and GitHub Enterprise Cloud environments. See Combined GitHub Enterprise cloud and server use.
In addition to licensed seats, your bill may include other charges, such as GitHub Advanced Security. See Billing for GitHub Enterprise.
Two billing models for GitHub Enterprise licenses
With usage-based billing, you pay for the number of licenses you use each month. You do not need to buy a predefined number of licenses in advance. See, Usage-based billing for enterprise licenses.
You are already enrolled in usage-based billing if you created a trial of GitHub Enterprise Cloud on or after August 1, 2024.
If you currently pay for your GitHub Enterprise licenses by invoice with a volume, subscription, or prepaid agreement, you will continue to be billed in this way until your agreement expires. At renewal, you have the option to switch to the metered billing model.
People that consume a license
GitHub bills for the following accounts for each deployment of GitHub Enterprise.
Accounts that consume a license on GitHub Enterprise Cloud
GitHub bills for each of the following accounts on GitHub Enterprise Cloud:
- Enterprise owners who are a member or owner of at least one organization in the enterprise
- Organization members, including owners
- Outside collaborators on private or internal repositories owned by your organization, excluding forks
- Dormant users who are a member or owner of at least one organization in the enterprise
If your enterprise does not use Enterprise Managed Users, you will also be billed for each of the following accounts:
- Anyone with a pending invitation to become an organization owner or member
- Anyone with a pending invitation to become an outside collaborator on private or internal repositories owned by your organization, excluding forks
Observação
- GitHub counts each member or outside collaborator once for billing purposes, even if the user account has membership in multiple organizations in an enterprise or access to multiple repositories owned by your organization.
- Se um convidado não aceitar o convite em até sete dias, o convite pendente vencerá automaticamente.
- Inviting an outside collaborator to a repository using their email address temporarily uses an available seat, even if they already have access to other repositories. After they accept the invite, the seat will be freed up again. However, inviting them using their username does not temporarily use a seat.
GitHub does not bill for any of the following accounts:
- Contas de usuário gerenciadas that are suspended
- Enterprise owners who are not a member or owner of at least one organization in the enterprise, except for the user who set up the enterprise
- Enterprise billing managers
- Billing managers for individual organizations
- Anyone with a pending invitation to become a billing manager
- Anyone with a pending invitation to become an outside collaborator on a public repository owned by your organization
- Guest collaborators who are not organization members or repository collaborators (see Funções em uma empresa)
- Users of Assinaturas do Visual Studio com GitHub Enterprise whose accounts on GitHub are not linked, and who do not meet any of the other criteria for per-user pricing
- Users who have been provisioned with a conta de usuário gerenciada, but are not members of any organizations in the enterprise
- The
scim-adminsetup user, when SCIM is enabled on your GitHub Enterprise Server appliance. For more information, see the SCIM configuration guide Configurando o provisionamento do SCIM para gerenciar usuários.
Accounts that consume a license on GitHub Enterprise Server
After a user successfully authenticates to a GitHub Enterprise Server instance for the first time, the user consumes a seat.
Suspended users are not counted when calculating the number of licensed users consuming seats. For more information, see Suspending and unsuspending users.
Dormant users do occupy a seat license. Administrators can suspend dormant users to free licenses. For more information, see Managing dormant users.
About changes to your subscription
You can add more licensed seats to your enterprise at any time. If you pay for more seats than are being used, you can also reduce the number of seats. This only applies if you currently pay for your GitHub Enterprise licenses through a volume, subscription, or prepaid agreement.
If you use an enterprise account and have questions about changes to your subscription, contact Equipe de vendas do GitHub.
