Why is the initial VPS order price higher than the advertised monthly price?
The initial VPS order price may be higher than the advertised monthly price because it is calculated according to your first billing period.
For VPS services, the first invoice is prorated to the 25th day of the next month. This means that the first payment may cover more than one standard monthly period, depending on the day when the order is placed.
For example, if you order a VPS on the 1st day of the month, the initial invoice covers the current month and the period until the 25th day of the next month. In this case, the initial order price can be close to the price of two months.
If you order a VPS near the end of the month, for example on the 29th day of the month, the initial invoice covers only the period until the 25th day of the next month. In this case, the initial order price may be lower than the advertised monthly price.
After the initial prorated billing period, future renewals are charged according to the regular billing cycle shown for your VPS package.
