How to query bills for Alibaba Cloud Model Studio savings plans and resource plans - Alibaba Cloud Model Studio

In addition to the pay-as-you-go billing method, you can purchase upfront savings plans to reduce your costs. The specific discount depends on the model and the plan tier.

Savings plans

A savings plan requires an upfront payment. This payment is then used to offset real-time inference costs after your free quota runs out. After a savings plan is used up, subsequent fees are automatically deducted from your account balance. You can purchase and stack multiple savings plans.

Usage notes

Effective time: The savings plan becomes effective immediately after purchase. No manual activation or attachment is required.

Effective period: The effective period depends on the purchased package. After the plan expires, any remaining credit is forfeited and cannot be refunded.

Offset logic:

Offset order: New user free quota > Savings plan > Pay-as-you-go.
Multiple plans of the same type: The plan that expires first is used first. If multiple plans have the same expiration date, the plan that was purchased first is used first.
Excess usage: If all plans of the same type have expired or been depleted, any subsequent usage is automatically billed using the pay-as-you-go method.

FAQ

Q: I have purchased a savings plan, but it is not used?

A: Deductions from a savings plan can be applied only when specific conditions are met. Common reasons for charges to your account balance include the following:

Model mismatch: The model you called is not covered by your savings plan. For example, you purchased an LLM savings plan but called a Wan model.
Free quota remaining: The system's offset order is Free quota > Savings plan. The savings plan applies only to bills that are generated after the free quota is fully used.
