Service Level Agreement for Atlassian cloud products

Along with each of our cloud Premium and Enterprise products, we include a Service Level Agreement (SLA). Our SLA guarantees 99.90% uptime for Premium products and 99.95% uptime for Enterprise products.

Process to get compensation

If you think you qualify for compensation, you need to submit two separate requests to get help and compensation.

1. Report your problem and get help. To do that, submit a technical support request during the incident at support.atlassian.com/contact.

2. Request a compensation credit. After you submit a technical support ticket, you have until the 15th the month after the problem occurred to submit a compensation request. To do that, submit a separate SLA compensation request, as explained in the next section.

Request a compensation credit

You can submit a request for a product if you have one of the following roles:

• Billing contact or technical contact (original billing system), or Billing admin (new billing system). Understand billing administration

• Site admin for the product or organization admin. Learn more about admin permissions

To submit a request:

1. Go to support.atlassian.com/contact.

2. From the dropdown What can we help you with?, select Compensation Requests.

3. From Select a topic, select Cloud Premium SLA compensation request or Cloud Enterprise compensation request, depending on the plan of the product.

4. Enter the rest of the details for your request and click Submit.

Receive compensation

After submitting your request, our team will validate the claim and award a service credit when applicable. Once we determine the credit amount, we add it to the ticket. If you disagree with the amount awarded, you have 3 business days to request that we revisit the claim.

Depending on the downtime you experience, we offer the following tiers of service credit:

If your bill is on monthly payments, your service credit will be based on the monthly fee for the impacted product. You receive that credit on your next month’s invoice.

If you pay your bill annually, your service credit will be based on your annual fee (adjusted for amount per month) for the impacted product. You receive that credit on your next annual invoice.
