This feature is available for GitHub Enterprise Cloud. This gives you the same per-user AI credit budget controls that were previously only available through the REST API.\n\nWith this release, you can add enterprise teams or individual users to a cost center, set one per-user budget for that cost center, and have it automatically apply to everyone in it. As membership changes, budget coverage stays in sync, so you don’t need to reconfigure budgets when people move teams.\n\nTo learn more, see [Budgets for usage-based billing](https://docs.github.com/enterprise-cloud@latest/copilot/concepts/billing/budgets-for-usage-based-billing) and [Control GitHub costs at scale](https://docs.github.com/enterprise-cloud@latest/billing/tutorials/control-costs-at-scale).", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/per-user-budgets-for-cost-centers-in-the-billing-ui", "canonical_source": "https://github.blog/changelog/2026-07-07-per-user-budgets-for-cost-centers-in-the-billing-ui", "published_at": "2026-07-07 17:09:29+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-07-07 19:07:34.637651+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["GitHub", "GitHub Enterprise Cloud"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/per-user-budgets-for-cost-centers-in-the-billing-ui", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/per-user-budgets-for-cost-centers-in-the-billing-ui.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/per-user-budgets-for-cost-centers-in-the-billing-ui.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/per-user-budgets-for-cost-centers-in-the-billing-ui.jsonld"}}
