Alternative Payment Methods Welcome at Signup
We’ve added PayPal and GooglePay to the Akamai Linode Cloud signup process, the latest in a series of efforts to make it easier for developers to pay for and manage their cloud resources.
The addition of alternative payment methods is based on customer feedback and growing interest from developers, something Techstrong Research also saw in its latest global survey of DevOps professionals. For developers in certain regions around the world, the unavailability of credit cards limits which cloud providers they can work with. Others want to use their existing digital wallets to streamline the number of credentials they use to manage their infrastructure across multiple providers or tools.
Adding alternative payment methods to Akamai Linode Cloud removes friction from the sign up process and continues our ongoing work to make the cloud simple, affordable, and accessible to all.
