Why Cannot I Bind a Credit Card to My Account If I Want to Become a Cloud Solution Provider?

After a partner becomes a cloud solution provider, its original Huawei Cloud account becomes a Cloud Solution Provider account. A Cloud Solution Provider account cannot be used to purchase or use cloud resources. Therefore, if the partner's account has been bound to a credit card and has cloud resources provisioned, the partner can apply to become a cloud solution provider only after all the resources are disabled and unsubscribed from.

To disable and unsubscribe from the cloud services, the partner needs to submit a service ticket. For certain cloud services, such as DNS, SMN, and some services in the OBT stage, it takes one to two days to disable the services after the service ticket is submitted. Therefore, it will take long time for the partner to disable the provisioned cloud services. To avoid these situations, the partner cannot bind a credit card to its account if it wants to become a solution partner.
