Cloud Server Pay-As-You-Go Billing Instructions

Published: 2020-06-16

Pay-as-you-go is a billing method in which you use resources first and pay afterwards. It eliminates the need to purchase a large amount of resources in advance, effectively saving costs.

It is suitable for trials, or temporary resource expansion scenarios with high traffic and heavy load, such as e-commerce promotions, online events, flash sales, and red envelope rain.

Note:

1. Activation conditions: To prevent abuse of temporary server activation, your account must have at least one monthly/yearly subscription server before you can use the pay-as-you-go mode;

2. Termination settlement: If the cumulative usage duration of a single cloud server is less than 24 hours, it will be settled as 24 hours; if it exceeds 24 hours, it will be settled based on the actual number of hours used (any usage less than 1 hour is counted as 1 hour).

Example:

① If terminated after 6 hours of cumulative usage, since it is less than 24 hours, it will be settled and charged as 24 hours;

② If terminated after 1000 hours and 30 minutes of cumulative usage, the total settlement duration will be 1001 hours;
