Details
Yandex Cloud grants trial credits to new users. Non-residents of Russia receive at least $50, of which $15 can only be used for Yandex Compute Cloud, its server service. The remaining $35 can be used for all other services. Russian residents receive at least 4,000 rubles, including VAT.
Check the sign-up steps on the guide page (https://yandex.cloud/en/docs/getting-started/free-trial/concepts/quickstart) and register your first billing account to receive the credits automatically, once. They can be used for servers, file storage, databases, networking, and AI services such as Yandex Foundation Models and AI Studio (YandexGPT, Alice AI, YandexART). Speech recognition service SpeechKit, image recognition service Vision, translation services, and DataSphere are also eligible.
The credits are valid for 60 days, with no separate deadline. The main region is ru-central1, based in Moscow, where graphics processing units are available. This is a separate benefit from the Yandex Cloud startup program, which grants between $5,000 and $20,000. The amount is modest, so it is better suited as a trial budget for exploring features than as a budget for continuously running a real service.
