For how long do I have to sign up?

The shortest billing cycle is one month. You can also pay for several months at a time, which costs less per month.

Billing cycles​

When you order a server, choose a Billing cycle: Monthly, Quarterly (every 3 months) or Yearly. Longer cycles show their discount as Save followed by a percentage. The order summary shows what you pay today and what each renewal costs.

Some servers can also switch to a Semi-annual cycle (every 6 months) later. The cycles you can choose, and their prices, are shown on the server's Billing tab.

info

Some promo codes only work with monthly billing. If you choose a longer cycle, the order page tells you that the code isn't combined with the cycle discount.

Your server renews automatically at the end of each billing period. See How do I renew my services?.

Change your billing cycle​

  1. Open the Fragnet dashboard, go to My servers and select your server.
  2. Open the Billing tab. In the Renewal card, find Billing cycle. Each option shows its price per month, and Current marks the cycle you're on now.
  3. Select the cycle you want. A summary shows the date of the switch and what you'll be charged then.
  4. Select the Switch to button to confirm, or Cancel.

The new cycle starts at your next renewal: Saved. The new terms start at the next renewal. Until then, the card shows the scheduled switch. To undo it, select the Keep button for your current cycle.

Good to know:

  • If you currently have a discount on the server, switching cycles uses today's prices and your current discount ends. The summary warns you before you confirm.
  • If the renewal invoice for the next period was already created, it is cancelled and issued again at the new price.
  • You can't change the billing cycle while a cancellation is pending or while the server's renewal invoice is overdue.
  • Servers still paid by an old PayPal subscription can't change their billing cycle in the dashboard. Open a support ticket in the Billing category instead.
