Suji uses prepaid credits, not subscriptions. You top up an amount; your running VMs consume from the balance hourly. No fixed monthly bill, nothing auto-renews unless you opt into auto-recharge.

​
One-time top-up

1

Open the Billing page

Dashboard → Billing → Top up.
2

Pick an amount

Common amounts (€10 / €25 / €50 / €100) are one-click. You can also enter a custom amount. Minimum: €10.
3

Pay via Stripe

You’re redirected to Stripe Checkout. Pay with card or Apple/Google Pay. Stripe stores the card for future top-ups if you save it.
4

Done

Credit lands instantly when Stripe confirms. The dashboard shows the new balance and emails you a receipt.
Top-ups never expire.

​
Auto-recharge

Optional, off by default. Once configured, Suji automatically buys more credit when your balance drops below a threshold:
1

Open auto-recharge

Billing → Auto-recharge → Enable.
2

Pick a threshold and amount

Example: “when balance drops below €10, add €25.” The dashboard suggests defaults based on your current VM size and recent burn rate.
3

Pick a payment method

Stripe stores cards you’ve used before. Pick one or add a new one.
4

Set a monthly spend cap (recommended)

A safety net. Example: “stop auto-recharge after €50 in any calendar month.” Once hit, auto-recharge pauses and an email alerts the org owner.
If an auto-recharge charge fails (declined card, expired card), Suji emails the org owner and you have the standard grace period to fix it before VMs stop.

​
Payment methods

You can save multiple cards. Billing → Payment methods:
  • Add / remove cards.
  • Mark one as default.
  • Each card has its own audit trail.
Apple Pay and Google Pay work in Stripe Checkout but aren’t stored as reusable payment methods. Those are device-bound. For auto-recharge, you need a saved card.

​
Invoices

Every top-up generates an invoice. Billing → Invoices:
  • Download as PDF.
  • Add billing details (company name, address, VAT number) in Billing → Profile: future invoices pick them up automatically.
Suji bills under the French micro-entreprise scheme (franchise en base de TVA, art. 293 B du CGI), so invoices carry no VAT. You can still record your VAT number for your own bookkeeping.

​
Cancellation

There’s nothing to cancel because there’s no subscription. To stop being billed:
  • Destroy your VMs. All hourly charges stop. Manual snapshots are kept until you delete them (as long as your balance stays above €0). Take one first if you want to come back. At €0, snapshots and volumes enter a 7-day retention window before deletion.
  • Disable auto-recharge so your balance isn’t replenished.
  • Let the balance run out. Suji terminates each VM (cold snapshot → cloud server deleted), so charges stop without you doing anything. See Grace period.
Note: stopping a VM does not stop the bill. The cloud provider keeps the disk and IP reserved while a VM is stopped, so the hourly rate continues. To stop paying, destroy (or let it terminate at €0). You don’t need to email anyone or fill out a form. Just stop using it.

​
Refunds

Unused prepaid credit can be refunded to your original payment method on request, just contact support. Compute you’ve already used is non-refundable, and credit never expires, so there’s no pressure to use it up.
