How am I billed for Scalable Cloud Servers?
CloudCone Scalable Cloud Server billing is pretty straightforward, this article will explain everything you need to know
Scalable Cloud Servers are billed hourly, charged monthly. You will receive a bill on the 1st of every month for the previous month's hourly use, which means you are charged for the number of hours your Scalable Cloud Server uses during the month. When you create your Scalable Cloud Server, you will see your total bill per hour and per month.
You will need to add funds initially to your account's available balance (funds) to match the Monthly estimated bill, in order to deploy the specific plan.
If you cancel or destroy your SC2 instance, you will be charged for the number of hours used, and the remaining portion of your funds will become an available balance to be used in upcoming bills.
You can request the available balance in your account to be refunded within a refund time frame allowed by the payment gateway
