AWS, GCP or Azure: can you consolidate all three via boleto? Understand the billing
Companies that use more than one cloud face an extra challenge when it comes to paying: each provider charges separately, often in different currencies and formats, multiplying the finance team’s work. The good news is that there is a way to simplify this, consolidating payment for the main clouds into a single flow via boleto.
Why companies use more than one cloud
It is increasingly common to find companies that combine AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure in the same operation, whether due to specific technical decisions in each area, acquisitions that brought different environments into the same company, or simply a strategy of not depending on a single vendor.
The problem is that this technical strategy multiplies financial complexity: there are three invoices in dollars, three currency reconciliation processes, and, in many cases, three tax document nationalizations every month.
How consolidated payment via boleto works
Through an official distributor authorized for the three clouds, such as Ingram Micro, it is possible to structure the payment for AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure via bank boleto, in reais, each with its corresponding invoice and boleto, following the same domestic billing model, with a payment term and exchange rate equivalent to what would be applied to a credit card.
This does not mean mixing everything into a single document. Each cloud keeps its own boleto and its own invoice, but the process of contracting, monitoring, and billing becomes centralized through the same partner, simplifying management for the finance team.
What changes for those who use multiple accounts within the same cloud?
Companies with multiple AWS accounts organized in an AWS Organization can also consolidate the billing of those accounts into a single monthly boleto, further reducing the number of documents the finance team needs to process. This setup goes through a validation during the contracting process.
The benefits of centralizing multi-cloud billing
Fewer international documents to reconcile, standardized exchange rates without variation between different card operators, a Brazilian invoice for each contracted cloud, and a single point of contact responsible for the entire billing operation, instead of negotiating separately with each distributor or provider.
Does this affect the technical operation of the clouds?
No. The way each technical team uses AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure day to day remains exactly the same. The change happens only in the form of payment and billing, without any impact on the configuration, performance, or availability of production environments.
