    Storage fee details:

    • Only one copy of each file is stored, and billing is based on the actual physical space used, which reduces customer costs.

      For example, if User A and User B both store 10 GB of files, and 5 GB of these files are duplicates, the total billed storage space is calculated as 10 GB + 10 GB - 5 GB = 15 GB.

    • Storage fees are billed on an hourly basis.

      For example, the hourly storage fee for 100 GB of locally redundant storage is 0.0036 USD (100 × 0.026 / 30 / 24).

    • You are also charged data storage fees for specific value-added services that you enable, such as transcoding and package download. For more information, see Billable items for value-added services.

    User service fee details for the Chinese mainland region:

    User service fees are billed hourly based on a tiered pricing model. The per-user fee decreases as the total number of users increases. Examples:

    • 50 users: The hourly user service fee is 0.7448 / 30 / 24 × 50 = USD 0.0517.

    • 150 users: The hourly user service fee is 0.7448 / 30 / 24 × 100 + 0.2979 / 30 / 24 × (150 - 100) = USD 0.124.

    • 15,000 users: The hourly user service fee is 0.7448 / 30 / 24 × 100 + 0.2979 / 30 / 24 × (10,000 - 100) + 0.0149 / 30 / 24 × (15,000 - 10,000) = USD 4.303.
