AWS Startup Credits for Brazilian Startups

Up to $200,000 in AWS Activate credits for Brazilian founders — full application, AWS account setup and architecture guidance, delivered remotely by ROSTAN, an AWS Activate Provider.

Apply for AWS Credits → Already applied? Log in

AWS Activate is a global program, and Brazilian startups are fully eligible. Through ROSTAN Technologies — an AWS Activate Provider — qualifying Brazilian startups can access the Portfolio tier of AWS Activate, worth up to $200,000 in credits, rather than the smaller self-apply Founders tier. We prepare and submit the application, help you set up your AWS account, and review your initial architecture so the credits go further.

Support is delivered remotely by our AWS team in India, working to Brazilian business hours. You get hands-on help without local consulting rates, while your workloads and data stay in the AWS São Paulo Region.

AWS Region serving Brazil

The AWS South America (São Paulo) Region (sa-east-1) has three Availability Zones and is AWS's longest-running Region in Latin America, giving Brazilian startups a mature, full-featured Region with low latency for Brazilian users.

Data residency in Brazil

Keep customer data in the São Paulo Region to support obligations under Brazil's Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD).

Low latency for Brazilian users

An in-country Region with three Availability Zones keeps response times fast for customers across Brazil.

Support in your hours

Delivered remotely from India, aligned to Brazilian business hours — application help, account setup and architecture review.

Well-Architected from day one

We review your initial setup against AWS Well-Architected principles so your credits fund the right foundation, not rework.

How it works

We keep it simple for Brazilian founders: confirm you meet the AWS Activate prerequisites (company under 10 years old, privately held, with an AWS account), then we prepare and submit your Portfolio-tier application, help set up your AWS account, and review your first architecture — all remotely, in your business hours. See the full eligibility checklist on our main AWS Startup Credits page.

Frequently asked questions

Can Brazilian startups get AWS Activate credits?
Yes. AWS Activate is a global program and Brazilian startups are fully eligible. Applying through ROSTAN as an AWS Activate Provider gives access to the Portfolio tier, worth up to $200,000 in credits, subject to AWS eligibility rules such as company age under 10 years and not being publicly traded.
Does ROSTAN have an office in Brazil?
No. ROSTAN delivers AWS Activate support to Brazilian startups remotely from India, working to Brazilian business hours. There is no local office; the benefit is local-grade help without local consulting rates, while your workloads run in the AWS São Paulo Region.
Which AWS Region should a Brazilian startup use?
Nearly all Brazilian startups use the AWS South America (São Paulo) Region (sa-east-1) for lowest local latency and to help meet LGPD data residency expectations.
How much do the credits cost, and what does ROSTAN charge?
The AWS Activate credits themselves are provided by AWS at no cost. Contact us for how our application and setup support is structured for Brazilian startups — the goal is to get you approved and productive on AWS with minimal friction.
Are the credits in Brazilian reais?
AWS Activate credits are denominated in US dollars and applied against your AWS bill. Your AWS invoices can still be managed in BRL; the credit simply offsets usage up to its value.
