How can I create an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account without a credit or debit card?

Here people wish to start their practice on the cloud without filling in their card details mostly in the student crowd we have seen this so this blog is for those who are willing to learn without stressing about cards.

To create an AWS account, you need to have a credit card, but in this tutorial, we are going to use a virtual credit card, so there is no need to worry.

Let’s start by heading over to the link: https://portal.aws.amazon.com/billing/signup#/start

You can create an AWS account without a credit or debit card by using the AWS Free Tier. The AWS Free Tier offers a limited amount of free services and resources that you can use for a year. Once you have signed up for the free tier, you will have access to a variety of services, including Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), and Amazon http://DynamoDB.To sign up for the AWS Free Tier, you will need to go to the AWS website and click on the “Create a new AWS account” button. You will then be prompted to provide your personal and contact information, as well as your payment information. If you do not want to provide your credit or debit card information, you can select the option to “Pay with an AWS credits statement” instead. Once you have completed the sign-up process and have access to the AWS Free Tier, you can start using the services and resources provided. Keep in mind that some services and resources may have usage limits and you will be charged if you exceed them.
