Our observations
- Billed in arrears by default: you are charged at the start of the month for the previous month, with no minimum spend. Prepaid credit is offered as an alternative if you would rather cap the exposure.
- Billing is per second of compute, so an account that sits idle costs nothing at all — there is no floor.
