These discounts can be up to 20 percent with the no-upfront option, or up to 24 percent when you pay all-upfront. You purchase Redshift Serverless Reservations at the AWS payer-account level, and your savings automatically apply to any Redshift Serverless workgroup in any AWS linked account, so you can centrally manage budgets while supporting multiple teams. Redshift Serverless meters the usage at per-second granularity, averaged across each hour, and then billed hourly, ensuring you pay only for the capacity you use.

The quickest way to check your usage for an individual account is to go to the **Serverless dashboard** in the console and check your **RPUs**. This report goes back up to a week and shows the compute resources you used. This covers a relatively short period, but it can give you a sense of your near-term usage. If you are reserving for the payer account, you can check your usage in the AWS Cost Explorer.
