Question about credit uploaded with PayPal.

Posted January 5, 2014

Hi!

4 days ago I created a VPS droplet that costs 10$/month and uploaded 10$ of credit in the process. Right now, my droplet is running and the credit shows 10$. Does that mean that I have paid 10$ for the droplet already or do I have to somehow manually use this 10$ credit to pay for the droplet? Whats the deadline for the next payment?

Thanks in advance!

DigitalOcean charges by the hour and <b>not</b> on a per month basis.

Once you’ve added the credit to your account, charges incurred from droplets will automatically be deducted. A likely reason that your credit is still showing as $10 is due to caching, the credit remaining may take some time to update.
