If you as a company do not meet the criteria for an AWS startup, your application may be rejected.

AWS Credits are exclusively for "young and innovative companies, at best with a digital and measurable business model, which have not been bought out or taken public".

If you have used an AWS activation package of €5,000 or more in the past, you are also not eligible to apply for another activation package through Penta. 

If you have used a smaller package in the past, you will get the difference between your original package and the Penta package. For example: you received €3,000 in credits from AWS back then, so now you'll get another €2,000 in credits.
