Pay-per-use

VPC endpoints are billed based on how many hours (accurate to seconds) the VPC endpoint is retained in your account.

Formula: Required duration x Unit price

For example, if you buy a VPC endpoint and retain it in your account for 5 hours, you will be charged for the 5 hours you keep it.

Billing starts once a VPC endpoint is purchased even though it has never been used.
