Overview
There are yearly/monthly and pay-per-use billing modes. Each one has different advantages and disadvantages.
- Yearly/Monthly is a prepaid billing. You pay in advance for a subscription term, and in exchange, you get a discounted rate. The longer the subscription term, the bigger the discount. Yearly/Monthly billing is a good option for long-term, stable services.
- Pay-per-use is a postpaid billing mode. You pay as you go and just pay for what you use. There are no wasted resources.
Table 1 lists the differences between the billing modes.
