Pump
Group buying via collective commitment structures AWS has clarified are limited to the purchasing customer and affiliates.
Compliant savings within your account only. You own and control every commitment.
Why Cloud Capital Wins
Compliance Risk
Collective commitment structures vs single-organization models
Some optimisation models rely on collective commitment structures under centralized billing. AWS policy (effective June 1, 2025) clarifies that RI and Savings Plan benefits apply to the intended end customer and affiliates, regardless of billing structure.
Cloud Capital places commitments directly in your sole AWS Organization. No cross-customer or shared Organization dependency.
Models that rely on cross-company commitment allocation create structural dependency; Cloud Capital operates 100% within your AWS Org.
Ownership & Control
Don’t hand over your commitments
Some providers buy and manage commitments on your behalf. This introduces real governance trade-offs.
With Cloud Capital, commitments live directly in your account. You retain total visibility, governance, and portability.
No lock-in. No opaque black boxes. You stay in charge.
Contract
The Lifetime Savings Trap
Pump’s contract states: “Excess Purchases… unused for a full 30 day period… net of Customer’s lifetime Pump savings… require mitigation steps.” The more you’ve “earned,” the less protection you get when overcommitments happen.
Cloud Capital uses a clear, upfront Guaranteed Savings Rate. No clawbacks. No backdating. No games.
What you save is yours — fully and immediately.
Risk
Billing & Suspension Risk
Pump may request suspension of your AWS account after 15 days of non-payment. They may also send you to collections and pass on legal fees.
Cloud Capital aligns with AWS billing cycles, provides grace periods, and never suspends your critical infrastructure over invoice timing.
Your business continuity always comes first.
Some models promise deep cuts, but cross-company commitment management can introduce volatility and compliance exposure as AWS rules evolve.
Optimization models built on cross-company commitment allocation create uncertainty. Cloud Capital’s model is native to your account, so policy changes don’t put you at risk.
We only get paid when you save. No upfront fees, no subscription, no hidden costs. Our incentives fully align with yours.
Minimal disruption. We’ll help you migrate commitments, map out savings, and transition away from cross-company allocation structures, all while you retain control.
Some optimization models look tempting — but create uncertainty as AWS rules evolve. Cloud Capital is the safe, transparent, smart alternative. You keep control. You stay compliant. What you save is yours.
Cloud Capital is an AWS-certified Advanced Partner. We access read-only billing data, fully aligned with AWS terms and conditions.
