What is Long-term billing ?
We provide discounted prices for committed use that is pre-paid. If you have a continuous need for our instances, you are able to save up to 50% compared to our on-demand pricing by using our long-term billing options.
Long-term subscription option | Discount compared to on-demand |
1 month | -20% |
3 months | -30% |
6 months | -40% |
12 months | -50% |
How to create a Long-term billed instance ?
Simply configure instance as usual and use the right-hand element to select "Long-term" instead of "On-demand".
Upon selecting "Long-term" you are presented with 1, 3, 6, and 12 month options and a break-down of the cost.

How to manage long-term subscriptions ?
Simply navigate: Account > Billing > Long-term Subscription Resources
From three dots on the right-hand side of the subscription of interest, select "Stop renewal" to stop the subscription from automatically renewing at Renewal/End Date. This will change the Status from "ACTIVE" to "ENDING". Past subscriptions have the status "ENDED".

Something happened, can I start over?
You are also free to destroy and recreate your long-term billed instances. How this works is that upon destroying the instance, via our UI, you are able to create a new instance based on this Existing subscription.

Please note: Keep in mind that the subscription is for a specific instance type only, so you are not able to pay for 1 GPU of a 2 GPU instance at a long-term price and then for remaining 1 GPU at on-demand price.
