Billing
In the Billing section of the Aiven Console, you can manage your billing groups, payment cards, and view and download your invoices.
To access the Billing section of the Aiven Console for an organization, you have to be a super admin. Other users have read-only access to some billing information like billing group details and invoices using the API.
Service charges
The prices shown in the Aiven console are all-inclusive. The following costs are included in the hourly service price:
- Virtual machine costs
- Network costs
- Backup costs
- Setup costs
While network traffic is not charged separately, your application cloud service provider may charge you for the network traffic going to or from their services.
Use of PrivateLink and additional storage incurs additional costs on top of the hourly service usage rate.
The minimum hourly charge unit is one hour. For example, when you launch an Aiven service and terminate it after 40 minutes, you are charged for one full hour. Likewise, if you terminate a service after 40.5 hours, you are charged for 41 hours.
Terminating or pausing a service stops the accumulation of new charges immediately. However, the minimum hourly charge unit still applies before terminating or pausing a service.
Migrating a service to another cloud region or to a different cloud provider does not incur any additional costs.
