Billing & Usage Guide
This platform offers two ways to rent GPUs: pay-as-you-go with a prepaid wallet, or a flat-rate monthly subscription.
Two Ways to Rent a GPU
Every GPU on this platform is available through one of two billing models. Choose the one that fits your workload:
Option 1
Hourly (Wallet)
- Top up your wallet, deploy GPUs on demand
- Pay only for what you use
- Billed in 30-minute intervals
- Unused time in a billing window is credited back
- No commitment — terminate anytime
Option 2
Monthly Subscription
- $199/mo flat rate for one dedicated GPU
- Paid via credit card (Stripe subscription)
- Completely independent of your wallet balance
- Renews automatically each month
- Cancel anytime from your account
Hourly (Pay-as-you-go)
The hourly model is designed for on-demand workloads. You add funds to your wallet and deploy GPUs whenever you need them. Billing works in 30-minute intervals:
- Deploy a GPU — 30 minutes of usage is pre-charged from your wallet.
- Every 30 minutes — usage is recalculated and the next interval is deducted.
- Terminate early — if you stop before the 30-minute window ends, the unused portion is credited back to your wallet.
Example
You launch an RTX PRO 6000 at $0.66/hr. After 45 minutes you terminate it. You're charged for two 30-minute intervals ($0.33 each = $0.66 total), but the 15 unused minutes from the second interval are credited back ($0.165). Net cost: $0.495 for 45 minutes of GPU time.
Monthly Subscription
The monthly plan gives you a dedicated GPU for a fixed price. It's ideal for always-on workloads where you know you'll use the GPU continuously.
- $199/month for one NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (96GB VRAM)
- Paid via Stripe — billed to your credit card, not your wallet
- Your wallet balance is completely separate and unaffected
- Renews automatically on the same day each month
- Cancel from your account page — the GPU stays active until the end of the billing period
Monthly vs. Hourly
The monthly subscription for the RTX PRO 6000 works out to ~$0.27/hr (based on 730 hours/month) — a 59% saving compared to the hourly rate of $0.66/hr. If you plan to run a GPU for more than ~12 days in a month, the subscription is cheaper.
GPU Pricing
| GPU | VRAM | Hourly | Monthly | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell | 96 GB GDDR7 | $0.66/hr | $199/mo | Inference, LoRA fine-tuning, Stable Diffusion, open-source models |
| NVIDIA B200 | 180 GB HBM3e | $2.25/hr | — | Large model training, 70B+ inference, production serving |
Every instance includes full root access, SSH, persistent storage options, and no bandwidth charges. Prices are final — no hidden fees.
How the Wallet Works
Your wallet is a prepaid balance managed through Stripe. It powers all hourly GPU usage, Token Factory API calls, and persistent storage charges.
Adding Funds
Top up from your dashboard. Available amounts:
| Amount | GPU Time (RTX PRO 6000) | GPU Time (B200) |
|---|---|---|
| $25 | ~37 hours | ~11 hours |
| $50 | ~75 hours | ~22 hours |
| $100 | ~151 hours | ~44 hours |
| $250 | ~378 hours | ~111 hours |
| $500 | ~757 hours | ~222 hours |
Funds are available immediately after payment.
Voucher Codes
Promotional vouchers add bonus credits to your wallet. Redeem them from the billing section of your dashboard.
Balance Warnings
Keep your balance healthy to avoid interruptions:
- $10 remaining — consider adding funds soon
- $5 remaining — add funds to avoid interruption
- $0 balance — running instances may be paused
Token Factory Pricing
Token Factory offers pay-per-token pricing with discounts for batch processing:
Real-Time Inference
| Token Type | Price per 1M Tokens |
|---|---|
| Input Tokens | $0.03 |
| Output Tokens | $0.06 |
Batch Processing (50% Discount)
| Batch Type | Input per 1M | Output per 1M | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-Hour Batch | $0.02 | $0.04 | Results within 1 hour |
| 24-Hour Batch | $0.015 | $0.03 | Results within 24 hours |
Other Token Factory Services
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Embeddings | $0.02 per 1M tokens |
| LoRA Training | $3.00 per 1K training tokens |
All Token Factory usage is deducted from your wallet. New accounts include 10,000 free tokens to get started.
Storage Pricing
| Storage Type | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ephemeral (Local NVMe) | Free | Included with every GPU, cleared on terminate |
| Persistent (NFS) | $0.10/GB/month | Survives restarts, billed from wallet |
Persistent storage is billed continuously while the volume exists, even if the GPU is stopped. Delete the volume to stop storage charges.
Cost Management Tips
1. Terminate When Not in Use
| Instance State | GPU Billing | Storage Billing |
|---|---|---|
| Running | Active | Active |
| Stopped | Paused | Active (if persistent) |
| Terminated | Stopped | Stopped |
2. Use Ephemeral Storage When Possible
Only use persistent storage for data you need to keep across restarts (checkpoints, datasets, model weights).
3. Consider Monthly for Long-Running Workloads
If you'll run an RTX PRO 6000 for more than ~12 days in a month, the $199/mo subscription is cheaper than hourly.
4. Use Batch Processing for Token Factory
Batch API calls are 50% cheaper than real-time. Use them for data processing, evaluations, and bulk generation.
Warning
Terminating an instance deletes all ephemeral data permanently. Save important files to persistent storage or download them first.
FAQ
What's the difference between hourly and monthly?
Hourly is pay-as-you-go from your wallet — you pay only for the time you use.Monthly is a flat $199/mo subscription billed to your credit card, giving you a dedicated GPU for the entire month. The two are completely independent.
Do I get charged for a full hour if I stop early?
No. Billing is in 30-minute intervals. If you terminate before a 30-minute window ends, the unused portion is credited back to your wallet automatically.
Is the monthly subscription tied to my wallet?
No. The monthly subscription is billed directly to your credit card via Stripe. Your wallet balance is not affected. You can have both a monthly GPU and hourly GPUs running at the same time.
What happens if my wallet runs out?
Running hourly instances may be paused. Add funds to resume immediately. Monthly subscriptions are not affected by your wallet balance.
Can I switch between hourly and monthly?
Yes. You can subscribe to a monthly GPU and also deploy hourly GPUs from your wallet. To switch an existing GPU from hourly to monthly, terminate the hourly instance and subscribe to the monthly plan.
Can I get a refund on wallet funds?
Unused prepaid credits can be refunded within 30 days of purchase. Contact support for refund requests.
Do you offer enterprise pricing?
Yes. Contact us for volume discounts, reserved capacity, and custom SLAs.
