With Tier 2 and Tier 3 plans, you can use the pay-as-you-go option, which automatically adds the necessary capacity when you exceed your CDN data transfer limit.
Since you are only charged for usage that exceeds your limit, this pay-as-you-go option is cost-effective because you don’t need to maintain excess capacity.
How to Add the Option
1. Log in to the Shifter dashboard.
2. Select the site to which you want to add the option.
Open the management screen for the site, and click the “Recurring Billing” menu in the left sidebar.
3. Verify that the selected site’s plan is Tier 2 or Tier 3.
4. Enable the CDN option.
Click the “Enable Option” button under “CDN Usage-Based Billing Option” in the “CDN Options” section.
5. Verify that the CDN Data Transfer Pay-As-You-Go Option is enabled.
If it says “Option is currently on,” the option is enabled.
- If pay-as-you-go charges apply, they will be included in the following month’s invoice; please check your invoice for details.
This concludes the guide on enabling the “CDN Data Transfer Pay-As-You-Go Option.”
