Object Storage Service:Renew resource plans to maintain discounts

Last Updated:May 07, 2026

To ensure your discounts continue without interruption, we recommend that you renew your resource plans before they expire. If a resource plan expires, billing automatically switches to the more expensive pay-as-you-go model. You can also purchase a new resource plan after the current one expires to continue receiving discounts.

Prerequisites

  • The resource plan has not expired.

  • The following resource plans support renewal: Standard (ZRS) storage plan, Standard (LRS) storage plan, IA (LRS) storage plan, Cold Archive (LRS) storage plan, outbound traffic plan, and DDoS protection basic plan.

Notes

  • To enable a RAM user to renew resource plans, you must attach the AliyunBSSOrderAccess policy to that user. This policy grants permissions to view, pay for, and cancel orders in the Expenses and Costs console. For more information, see Grant permissions to a RAM user.

  • You can renew an OSS resource plan one hour after it is upgraded.

Manual renewal

To manually renew a resource plan before it expires and maintain your discounts, use one of the following methods.

Method 1: OSS console

  1. Log on to the OSS console.

  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Resource Usage > Resource Plans.

  3. On the Resource Plans page, find the resource plan that you want to renew and click Renew in the Actions column.

  4. On the Renew page, select a Validity Period for the resource plan, and then follow the on-screen instructions to complete the payment process.

Method 2: Via the Expenses and Costs console

  1. Log on to the Expenses and Costs console.

  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Renewal Management.

  3. On the Renewal Management page, click the Manual Renewal tab to manually renew one or more resource plans.

    • To manually renew a single resource plan, click Renew in the Actions column of the target resource plan. Select a Validity Period and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the payment process.

    • To manually renew multiple resource plans, select the target resource plans and click Batch Renew. Select a validity period as needed and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the payment process.

      Note

      You can only perform a batch renewal for resource plans that belong to the same product.
