​How much storage are you actually using?
Most people use less than half of their allotted storage amount.
Ask not how much cloud storage your provider is giving you—ask how much storage you're actually using.
Depending on how much you store, your $10 may last you months or even years. After that, just top-up your account.
You can make a one-time payment to top-up your account at anytime. We accept all major credit cards, as well as Bitcoin.
Tiered pricing systems are, by definition, unfair to a large percentage of its customers.
Imagine if a gas station decided to charge every customer the same fixed price to fill their tank. What price would the gas station pick? Not the cost of the smallest car, because then they'd lose money. And not the cost of the most expensive car either, because then every customer would be upset. So the gas station would need to pick a price somewhere in the middle.
Which means that approximately 50% of its customers are going to end up paying more, and 50% are going to pay less. This might sound great if you’re driving a truck with a larger gas tank. But it also means the smaller customers are getting ripped off, in order to subsidize the larger customers. And we think that’s unfair.
With us you only pay for what you use. If you only use half a gigabyte, then we only charge you for half a gigabyte. We're talking pennies, or even fractions of a penny.
PS - We don't round up your cost. We have the ability to charge you fractions of a penny.
When you create your account, we'll give you $10 credit. At the end of every month, we calculate your bill based on how much storage you used. This amount is deducted from your available balance. If your balance is still above zero, then you're good to go. If it drops below zero, then we'll pester you for money.
Payments are simple. You can make a one-time payment at anytime to top-up your account. Or you can setup automatic payments, and we'll automatically top-up your account for you when your balance drops below zero.
Files stored in the cloud are automatically transitioned to Infrequent Access after not being modified/accessed for 30 days. If a transitioned file is then not modified/accessed for an additional 60 days, it's automatically transitioned to Cold Storage. So you pay less for files you store longer. For most users, this represents over 90% of their storage.
Storage is billed using a unit called "gigabyte months", which means "1 gigabyte stored for an entire month". This is similar in concept to a "kilowatt hour" on your electric bill. And the idea is to charge you the minimum amount possible. If you only store a document for 10 days, then we only charge you for those 10 days.
​We don't round up your cost. We have the ability to charge you fractions of a penny. We can do this because we're just deducting from your balance in a computer system. After all, those fractions of a penny are yours, and we think you deserve them.
