AWS Payment Cryptography reduces API pricing by up to 63% and introduces tiered key pricing

AWS Payment Cryptography Price Reduction

AWS Payment Cryptography has announced a significant price reduction of up to 63% for API requests across existing tiers and introduced a new fourth tier. This change unifies pricing across all regions and enables customers to migrate higher volume workloads to the service without being worried about pricing. The new pricing model allows customers to cost-effectively scale both their key management and payment processing operations while optimizing costs at any volume.

What to do

• Review the new pricing model on the AWS Payment Cryptography pricing page.
• Migrate workloads to take advantage of the new pricing tiers.

The price change is effective from December 15, 2025, across all AWS Regions where AWS Payment Cryptography is available and automatically applies to all customers without any further action.
