Questions
Why do prices vary?
Individual pricing starts from AUD $4/week and increases based on the size of VM you choose — more CPU, RAM, or storage costs more, but it's always a fixed weekly rate, never a usage meter.
Do I get charged the same price no matter how much I use it?
Yes — Testbed uses flat-rate pricing. You're charged the same fixed amount regardless of usage, so there's no need to worry about switching your VM off to avoid unexpected costs.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, cancel before your next billing cycle and you won't be charged again.
