Announcing AWS Elemental MediaConvert on-demand volume discount pricing

Today, AWS launched volume discount pricing for AWS Elemental MediaConvert, providing customers with on-demand pricing which scales down as usage of the service goes up. Volume discount pricing takes effect during the September, 2024 billing cycle.

With on-demand volume discount pricing, you can save up to 75% off list prices based on your monthly usage. During each monthly billing cycle, your usage will automatically flow through increasingly discounted rates which correspond to usage thresholds of MediaConvert. Basic Tier and Pro Tier usage accrue separately to meet volume discount thresholds each month per region, and each billing cycle restarts the accumulation of usage towards these thresholds. Volume discount pricing is applied automatically to list prices for MediaConvert on your monthly bill - there is no action required on your part and no change to the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or AWS SDKs.

For more information about the AWS Regions where MediaConvert is available, see the AWS Region table.
