Billing Modes
The drive adopts a prepaid method for collecting all fees. The billing items include user license fees, storage capacity fees, and fees for outbound traffic exceeding the free quota. The outbound traffic is sold in the form of prepaid resource packages.
Note:
The prepaid method refers to the approach where users purchase the required resources in advance and then use the services.
Validity Period
The validity period refers to the duration of purchase you select when buying the drive. If you purchase a corporate drive for N months on day B of month A, then the drive will expire at 24:00 on day B of month A+N (target month).
Boundary
If the current purchase date exceeds the last day of the target month, the drive will expire on the last day of the target month.
Example 1
If you purchased a corporate drive with a duration of 3 months at 10:00:00 on December 1, 2021, then the validity period of the resource pack is from 10:00:00 on December 1, 2021 to 23:59:59 on March 1, 2022. Furthermore, if you renew your subscription at 12:00:00 on January 15, 2022, adding an additional 3 months to the validity period, then the expiration date of the drive will be extended to 23:59:59 on June 1, 2022.

Billable Items and Pricing
|
User License Fee | This refers to the number of users utilizing the corporate drive. The user license fee is calculated based on the number of users and the duration of use. | 1.64 USD/person/month |
Storage Usage Fees | This pertains to the total storage space of the drive. The storage usage fees are calculated based on the storage capacity and the duration of storage. | 0.03 USD/GB/month |
Excess Traffic Fee | Refers to the public network downstream traffic exceeding the free traffic, which is sold by resource pack. | 0.1 USD/GB |
Note:
We calculate the complimentary traffic quota based on 10GB of outbound traffic per license user each month. For detailed information, please refer to the Free Tier document. Public network upload traffic refers to the traffic generated when data is uploaded from a local source to the cloud drive. No charges are applied for public network upload traffic.
Public network downstream traffic refers to the data traffic generated when data is downloaded from the cloud drive via the public Internet and loaded onto the user's local system or client. Operations such as file download, file preview, and file editing will consume this traffic.
Once the free traffic and self-purchased traffic resource packs are used up, functions involving public network downstream traffic and CDN origin-pull traffic (such as download, preview, and so on) will become unavailable. To avoid any disruption to your regular usage, please promptly purchase additional traffic resource packs.
Calculation Formula
User license fee = Number of users × User license unit price × Usage duration
Storage capacity fee = Storage capacity × Storage capacity unit price × Storage duration
Traffic Fee = The specification of the traffic resource package you choose x Traffic unit price. For specific prices, please refer to the Resource Packages document. Billing Examples
Assume that a company purchases for 30 users, with a storage capacity of 200 GB, for a duration of three months, and selects a 100 GB traffic resource pack, the cost analysis is calculated as follows:
User license fee = 30 users × 1.64 USD/user/month × 3 months = 147.60 USD
Storage capacity fee = 200 GB × 0.03 USD/GB/month × 3 months = 18.00 USD
Traffic resource pack fee = 100 GB × 0.1 USD/GB = 10.00 USD
In conclusion, the total cost is calculated as follows: 147.60 USD + 18.00 USD + 10.00 USD = 175.60 USD. All fees are prepaid.

Billing for Upgrades and Renewals
The billable items, pricing, and billing effective duration after upgrade and renewal are consistent with the rules of initial purchase. For details, see Billable Items and Pricing in the preceding section. Calculation Method for Upgrade and Renewal
Calculation Method after Upgrade
User License Fee = Number of Additional Users x User License Unit Price x Remaining Valid Duration
Storage capacity fee = Additional storage capacity × Storage capacity unit price × Remaining valid duration
Calculation Method after Renewal
User license fee = Number of users × User license unit price × Usage duration
Storage capacity fee = Storage capacity × Storage capacity unit price × Storage duration
Billing Examples
Upgrade Case
Assume that a certain enterprise wants to increase the number of users in the original package from 30 to 50 (adding 20 user licenses), and upgrade the storage capacity from 200 GB to 500 GB (adding 300 GB of storage capacity), with a remaining valid period of one month at the time of upgrade. The cost analysis for the upgrade is calculated as follows:
User license fee = 20 users × 1.64 USD/user/month × 1 months = 32.8 USD
Storage capacity fee = 300 GB x 0.03 USD/GB × 1 month = 9 USD
In conclusion, the total cost is: 32.8 USD + 9 USD = 41.8 USD.
Renewal Case
Assume that a certain enterprise's original package includes 30 users and 200 GB of storage capacity and the enterprise wants to extend the validity period of this package by three months, the cost analysis for the renewal is calculated as follows:
User license fee = 30 users × 1.64 USD/user/month × 3 months = 147.60 USD
Storage capacity fee = 200 GB x 0.03 USD/GB × 3 month = 18 USD
In conclusion, the total cost is: 147.6 USD + 18 USD = 165.6 USD.
