How Billing Works
Monthly billing cycle
You are billed at the beginning of each month for the previous month's usage. Your first invoice is generated at the end of your first full billing period.
Proration
If you create, upgrade, or delete an instance mid-month, costs are prorated to the day:
Daily cost = (Tier price / Days in month) x Days activeFor example, if you create a PostgreSQL Standard instance (€10/mo) on the 15th of a 30-day month, you pay:
(€10 / 30) x 15 = €5.00The same applies when upgrading or downgrading — you pay for each tier only for the days you were on it.
Branch billing
Each branch is billed independently based on its own cluster size. Development branches can use a smaller (cheaper) tier than your production main branch.
Payment methods
Payments are processed via Mollie. We support:
- Credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express)
- SEPA Direct Debit
- iDEAL
- Bancontact
- Other local European payment methods
Account credit
If you have account credit (from promotional offers or overpayment), it will be automatically applied to your next invoice before charging your payment method.
