You can connect an Azure subscription to your organization or enterprise account and pay for Copilot through Azure.

Copilot billing follows the same rules as other GitHub products billed through Azure, including billing periods, invoicing, and usage reporting. For details, see [AUTOTITLE](https://docs.github.com/billing/reference/azure-billing).

## Copilot-specific usage

* Copilot license usage is measured as the **number of active seats**.
* If your enterprise exceeds its included pool of AI credits, the cost of any additional usage is included.
* Usage data is sent daily to Azure.
* Charges for the calendar month appear on your Azure invoice at the start of the next month.
