Hi there @kantorhosting2020,
The only thing that could be considered a minimum balance is when you register a new account and opt to use PayPal as the payment method, we’ll require an initial balance of $5.
However, if you do use PayPal as the main payment method, due to the fact we don’t have automatic billing for that we ask that you maintain a positive credit balance on your account greater than or equal to your expected monthly usage.
If you’re using a card to pay for your account, there is no minimum balance required. If you add a new card to your account, or when you sign up and use a card, you may see a temporary preauthorization request on the card just to confirm it is working.
Hope that helps! - Matt.
