$10,000 in platform credits for twelve months
Read this first
The credits are a balance across the whole platform for twelve months, so heavy Actions minutes or Copilot seats can spend them long before the year is up. Track it rather than assuming a seat count.

What the terms actually say
Ten thousand dollars in flexible platform credits over twelve months, spendable across GitHub Enterprise seats, Copilot, Advanced Security, Actions and other metered services. The flexibility is the useful part, since Copilot and Actions are where the bill actually grows. There is no independent route: you have to be affiliated with a GitHub for Startups partner, so the application really starts with your investor or accelerator. Having used an Enterprise plan in the last six months disqualifies you, which catches teams who trialled it and let it lapse.
Who can claim it, in GitHub's words
Affiliated with a GitHub for Startups partner, outside funding at Series B or earlier, new to GitHub Enterprise or not on it within the past six months, and no previous GitHub credits or Enterprise licences.
What you get without this
GitHub Free for teams, with public repositories and a monthly allowance of Actions minutes, and Copilot at published per seat pricing.
We list a perk because it beats walking up to the vendor unannounced. If it ever stops doing that, it comes off the index.
