If you’ve had your AWS account for less than about a month, then you cannot purchase reserved instances with No Upfront Cost. You’re too risky to receive the discount at this stage.

Amazon state:

You're purchasing a No Upfront RI with a new AWS account. AWS restricts the ability for new accounts to purchase No Upfront RIs. The restriction on purchasing No Upfront RIs is lifted automatically, usually after about a month.

Yes, AWS did not allow to Purchase Reserved Instances with NO UPFRONT for new accounts due to risk of payments. After 2 to 3 months they allowed for AWS RI NO Upfront to purchase.
