Key concepts and access points
Available credit
Log in to the Costs console. On the Billing Account page, you can view your Available Credit, which includes cash, credit control, and credit control refunds. The page also shows the relationship between your available credit, credit control limit, unsettled balance for the current month (consumption billed but not yet paid), and unsettled historical balance (charges from previous months billed but not yet paid).
Billing Account ID and Account ID
The Costs console uses Billing Accounts to manage funds and track transactions. Each Billing Account has a system-generated, globally unique Billing Account ID. The system uses this ID internally and requires no action from you. What is a Billing Account?
An Alibaba Cloud account is the primary entity for asset ownership, billing, and access control. Each account has a unique, 16-digit Account ID.
When you create an Alibaba Cloud account, a Billing Account is automatically created to handle fund management and payment settlement.
When you set a payer account in the Account Center, the corresponding Billing Account ID is displayed. Use the logon name to identify the payer account.
Transaction details
On the Billing Account page, in the Available Credit section, click Transaction Details to the right of Cash Balance.
