• Top up your account.
  • After the registration, click Console to go to the console page.
  • Click Billing in the upper right corner of the page to go to the Billing Center.
  • In the navigation pane, choose Funds Management > Top Up. The Top Up page is displayed.

• Create a bucket.
  • After the top-up is complete, close the dialog box and go back to the management console homepage.
  • Choose Service List > Storage > Object Storage Service.
