Can I Switch Between Yearly/Monthly and Pay-per-Use Payments?
Yes, you can switch between yearly/monthly and pay-per-use payments.
- Changing pay-per-use to yearly/monthly
Pay-per-use is a postpaid billing mode in which your ECS is billed by usage duration. You can create or delete such an ECS at any time.
If you want to use an ECS for a long time, you can change its billing mode from pay-per-use to yearly/monthly to reduce cost. For details, see Changing Pay-per-Use to Yearly/Monthly.
- Changing yearly/monthly to pay-per-use
Yearly/Monthly is a prepaid billing mode in which your ECS will be billed based on service duration. This cost-effective mode is ideal when the duration of ECS usage is predictable.
If you require a more flexible billing mode, in which your ECS will be billed based on the actual usage, you can change the billing mode from yearly/monthly to pay-per-use. This billing mode change (from yearly/monthly to pay-per-use) takes effect immediately. For details, see Changing Yearly/Monthly to Pay-per-Use.
