Our reproducible cost scenarios
Authored calculations for this exact plan, not measured invoices or provider quotations. USD, before tax; no credits or other resources. Recalculate with the linked rates if terms change.
Monthly backup budget
Base 96.00 × 20% = 19.20 extra for basic weekly backups; total 115.20/month. Basic daily backups at 30% give 124.80/month. Usage-based backups are a separate option.

Transfer overage budget
Scenario: the team exceeds its accrued included outbound pool by 100 GiB. 100 × USD 0.01/GiB = USD 1.00 extra; this plan’s full base plus that charge = USD 97.00. This is team-level excess, not 100 GiB above an isolated VM allowance.
Source: Bandwidth Billing, paragraphs 1–2; included transfer for this plan: 6,000 GiB.
Power-off is not cancellation
Scenario: a newly created instance stays reserved but powered off for 24 hours, then is destroyed. 24 × USD 0.14286/hour = approximately USD 3.43, within the monthly base cap USD 96.00. The provider bills by seconds; the displayed hourly rate and cent rounding make this a budget estimate. Powering off saves no reserved compute charge; destroying ends future instance billing. Separate backups or other resources are outside this example.
