Changing the Billing Option

Live CDN supports billing by traffic, daily peak bandwidth, and 95th percentile bandwidth. To change the billing option to 95th percentile bandwidth, submit a service ticket. The change takes effect at 00:00 on the next day. You can change between traffic-based billing and daily peak bandwidth billing on the Live console.

Notes

  • If you change the billing option from By traffic to By peak bandwidth or By 95th percentile bandwidth, you cannot use the Live CDN traffic package to pay for downstream traffic.
  • You can change the billing option multiple times before the system performs the change. The latest change takes effect.
  • For changes involving 95th percentile bandwidth billing, submit a service ticket.
