Vultr bills all servers on an hourly basis. The billing model varies slightly based on the product type:
The minimum billing unit is one hour, and hourly charges begin when a server is deployed, regardless of whether it is powered on or off. Servers that are stopped but not destroyed continue to incur hourly charges for reserved resources such as compute, storage, and IP address allocations.
Invoices are generated on the 1st of each month, reflecting the total accrued charges for the previous billing period.
