Kinda annoying I have to put in a CC before starting a free $0 plan.

Some things are free (like 10Gb traffic), but storage for example is not. So you don't pay for the account, but you need to pay for usage.

The idea is the company eats that cost and sees it as marketing. It’s pretty common with dev tools. But not required of course.

So you get AWS-pwned on your bill after 10Gb?
