AWS and Google Cloud credits
The Google credits are the free credits offered by Google when any new user signs up. The 'redeem' button is just a simple link to the Google signup page https://cloud.google.com/free/
The AWS credits are offered through the AWS Activate program (https://aws.amazon.com/activate/portfolio-package-application/). The benefit description states that "Startups that have previously received $5,000 or more in AWS Credit are ineligible to redeem this offer. Credit is subject to approval."
I'm posting this information as I assume there will be a number of people interested in these perks, and they may not apply to everyone.

Jan 6, 2025***UPDATE: The AWS credits are no longer available as part of this deal. As for Google Cloud, the credits now go up to $200,000 (subject to eligibility)—a major upgrade! Please note that perks like these are offered through our partners and are subject to change over time.***
Thanks for laying this out—it’s super helpful for others who might be wondering about these perks!
To clarify, the Google Cloud credits (now up to $200,000!) are provided through their program, subject to eligibility, and we include them to make accessing these benefits easier for our users. For AWS, we’ve unfortunately retired those credits, but we’re always working to introduce new, valuable perks to replace them.
If anyone has questions about redeeming perks or eligibility, feel free to reach out to us at support@startups.com—we’re happy to help!
