Hello, I have created one droplet via digitalocean account for free 10$. Next after login to docker cloud I created a new node and I thought that it will connect to current droplet but it created another one.
- If I will charged for that?
- if I create a droplet and it’s not be used and be deleted before using then I will pay for that?

You’re charged a minimum of 1 hour when you deploy a Droplet, whether you login to it or not. That’d be a minimum charge of $0.007 cents (for the 512MB Droplet) up to $0.952 cents for the largest (the 64GB Droplet) – so the actual charge or debit from your available credit will depend on the size of the Droplet you deployed.
All billing is hourly up to a maximum of the monthly cost of the Droplet, so however long the Droplet is active, you’d multiply that by the hourly cost and that’d be how much you’ll end up being charged.
