Billing Modes

There are yearly/monthly and pay-per-use billing modes. A yearly/monthly EIP can be billed by bandwidth. A pay-per-use EIP can be billed by bandwidth, by traffic, or it can be added to a shared bandwidth.

Billing Options

Yearly/Monthly EIP billed by bandwidth

Yearly/Monthly billing, fixed bandwidth, and unlimited traffic

Suitable for scenarios with heavy or stable traffic

Pay-per-use EIP billed by bandwidth

Fixed bandwidth, unlimited traffic, and pay-per-use billing

Suitable for scenarios with heavy or stable traffic

Pay-per-use EIP billed by traffic

Custom bandwidth upper limit and billing by used traffic every hour

Suitable for scenarios with light or sharply fluctuating traffic

Pay-per-use EIP added to a shared bandwidth

Multiple EIPs using the same shared bandwidth

Suitable for scenarios with staggered peak hours and lower public network costs

Billing Examples

Example

If you want to buy a dynamic BGP EIP with 6 Mbit/s of bandwidth, the price per hour is calculated as: 0.01 x 5 (1 Mbit/s to 5 Mbit/s) + 0.034 x 1 (> 5 Mbit/s) + 0.009 (BGP EIP) = $0.093 USD.

Example

If you use a dynamic BGP bandwidth of 1 Mbit/s in the first 30 minutes of an hour, and of 2 Mbit/s in the last 30 minutes of the hour, your bandwidth expenditure is: 0.01 x 0.5 + 0.02 x 0.5 = $0.015 USD.
