# Payment Methods

Explore Cloudback's flexible payment options including direct credit-card checkout via Paddle, GitHub Marketplace, Azure Marketplace, bank transfer, and Coupa Supplier Portal.

Cloudback offers a variety of payment methods to purchase a subscription. You can choose the one that best fits your billing and procurement process. This document provides an overview of the available payment methods.

> **Tip**: After purchasing a subscription, you can assign it to multiple accounts across all supported platforms. This allows you to manage backups for your entire infrastructure under a single subscription. See [Subscription Management](/docs/account-and-billing-management/subscription-management.md) for details.

The **Subscriptions** page in the Cloudback dashboard has a **Ways to add a subscription** section at the top, which lists every available purchase route:

* **Paddle checkout** - buy directly from Cloudback with a credit card
* **GitHub Marketplace** - use existing GitHub billing
* **Azure Marketplace** - use existing Microsoft Azure billing
* **Coupa Supplier Portal** - use Coupa-based procurement

For invoice or bank transfer, contact the support team - these options are arranged off-platform.

## Direct Credit-Card Checkout (Paddle)
