How to access billing?

Billing can be managed via Profile -> Billing

Billing is segmented into sections for each subscription: Web3 Data API/Webhooks and each L1.

L1 Subscription

For each L1 subscription, it breaks down into detailed items 

What are the dynamic pricing under each L1 subscription?

There are two items which are charged based on the L1's dynamic usage

• Chain Storage: $0.12/GB
• Explorer Storage: $1.50/GB

Chain Storage grows around 10 times faster than Explorer Storage.

Following graph shows the cost with hypothetical numbers of transactions :

Note: Some real data points are used, but cost will change depending on the average transaction size on your L1. We highly recommend testing with your own L1 and contracts.
AvaCloud has an L1 load testing tool for monitoring dynamic storage usage and testing smart contracts, please reach out to the AvaCloud team to learn more.

What are the Validator Staking Fee?

Validator Staking Fee is only applicable for L1s on Avalanche Mainnet. It is charged as a monthly fee of 1.33 AVAX in USD per validator.

How to update payment method?

Under each L1 subscription, clicking on the Update payment method under the vertical ..., it will navigate to Stripe  

On the Stripe page, there are multiple places which can be clicked to update the payment info. 

For example, clicking on "Add payment method" navigates the following screen where a new payment method can be added, and optionally can be set as the default payment method moving forward.
