Setting up and signing into Amazon Quick

Amazon Quick offers two ways to get started, depending on your needs:

Free and Plus accounts (quick.aws.com): Sign up at https://quick.aws.com using an email address. Amazon Quick creates an account for you automatically using your email or social login credentials. Choose from Free, Free Trial Plus, or Paid Plus plan tiers. No AWS account or technical configuration is required.

AWS Console accounts: If your organization uses AWS, you can provision Amazon Quick through the AWS Management Console. This path uses IAM Identity Center for authentication and integrates with your existing AWS billing and governance.

For a comparison of features available with each account type, see Pricing and availability.

For more information on administering your account after setup, see Administering Amazon Quick (Free/Plus) or Administering Amazon Quick for accounts provisioned through the AWS Management Console.
