Commitment discounts in Nebius AI
For key resources, such as Compute Cloud virtual machines (VMs) with GPUs, you can get commitment discounts on PAYG prices by committing to specific usage for a set time period and paying for it upfront or monthly.
For example, consider this configuration:
- 64 VMs, each with 8 NVIDIA H100 GPUs, 160 Intel Sapphire Rapids vCPUs, and 1280 GB RAM.
- A 128 TB SSD file storage shared between the VMs.
The costs of running it for 3 months (90 days) are:
Pricing scheme Cost Savings PAYG (no discounts) $5,395,226.88 With commitment discount $3,960,000.00 ~27%
You can purchase resources with commitment discounts when signing up for Nebius AI, and at any point of using it. Other resources will still be charged on a pay-as-you-go basis.
Eligible resources and prices
You can get commitment discounts for Compute Cloud virtual machines (VMs) with NVIDIA A100 and H100 GPUs.
Commitments cover computing resources of your running VMs: vCPUs, GPUs, and RAM. This does not necessarily include entire VMs.
For example, if your commitment includes seven GPUs, and you have a single VM with eight GPUs, one of them will be charged on a pay-as-you-go basis, outside the commitment.
For prices with and without discounts, see Pricing and Commitment discounts.
Payment options
When making a commitment, you can choose how to pay for it:
- Upfront payment: You will get one invoice for the entire commitment before it starts.
- Monthly payments: You will get an invoice each month for a portion of your commitment.
The discount does not depend on the payment option that you choose.
How to get the discounts

Altering a commitment
If you want to extend, shorten, or cancel the commitment you made, contact the Nebius AI sales team. It is not guaranteed that the commitment will be altered as requested. Fees, discount decreases, and other conditions may apply.
