Hi @vaadfabi

You are charged hourly, so it doesn’t matter which day-of-month you’ve created the droplet. All invoices are generated on the 1st of every month for the previous month.

This is how it works, when you account has been validated (meaning your credit card works and has been charged for several months), so not sure if invoices might be generated at other times if the account is new.

So, this mean all droplets charged hourly at 1st day of month. But it’s not still clean about charging\invoicing, does it process all droplets as batch with only one invoice or do it separately one invoice per droplet.
