Common pricing questions
Can I switch from Pay as You Go to a subscription?
Yes, at any time. Simply upgrade through the control panel. Your billing will adjust from your next cycle.
What happens if I exceed my bandwidth allowance?
Additional data transfer is billed at R1.19/GB (PAYG) or R0.99/GB (subscription). Internal traffic between your own servers is always free.
Are Windows servers available on all plans?
Yes. Windows Server licensing is billed separately at R836.17/month per server, on top of your resource costs.
Is there a minimum commitment?
No. Pay as you go is billed by the hour with no minimum. Monthly subscriptions require one month. Annual subscriptions are billed annually.
How does the 5-day free trial work?
Your trial includes 2,000 core-MHz CPU, 1,024 MB RAM, 30 GB disk storage, and 2 GB data transfer — enough to deploy a small server and explore the platform. Note: certain outbound ports are restricted (SMTP, FTP, SSH), game servers are not permitted during the trial, and Windows licensing is required once the trial ends.
