CAUTION:  注意：

While signing up for an IBM Cloud account, or at a later stage, you may be prompted to enter a credit card. Please note that access to paid services or a credit card is NOT required to complete any mandatory labs/projects / or assignments in this course. Instead, those enrolled in this course have access to a Feature Code, which enables trial access to IBM Cloud for a limited duration. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you DO NOT enter a credit card to complete the required course components. 
在注册 IBM Cloud 账户时或在后续阶段，您可能会被提示输入信用卡。请注意，完成本课程中的任何必修实验/项目或作业均不需要访问付费服务或提供信用卡。相反，注册本课程的学员可以获得一个功能代码，该代码可在有限期限内提供 IBM Cloud 的试用访问权限。因此，我们强烈建议您不要输入信用卡来完成所需的课程组件。

If you still choose to enter your Credit Card to use IBM Cloud services, you will be liable to pay any resulting charges billed to your credit card. The course team does not take any responsibility for such charges.
如果您仍选择输入信用卡以使用 IBM Cloud 服务，您将需要承担计入您信用卡的任何由此产生的费用。课程团队对此类费用不承担任何责任。

In case you encounter issues while activating your account with a Feature Code, or your trial has ended, and you have not yet completed the course, please contact the course support team via the course discussions forums for assistance instead of adding a credit card to your IBM Cloud account.
如果您在使用功能代码激活账户时遇到问题，或者您的试用期已结束但尚未完成课程，请通过课程讨论论坛联系课程支持团队寻求帮助，而不是向您的 IBM Cloud 账户添加信用卡。
