An [**audit log**](https://console.victoriametrics.cloud/audit) is a record of user and system activities within an organization. It captures details of who performed an action, what was done, and when it occurred. Audit logs are essential for security, compliance, and troubleshooting processes.

VictoriaMetrics Cloud charges for three key components:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Compute: The cost of deployment installation.
|
||||||
|
2. Storage: The storage used by the deployment.
|
||||||
|
3. Network: External (egress) network usage.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This breakdown will help you to better understand and manage your costs. Usage data is sent hourly to the payment provider (AWS or Stripe). Detailed billing information is available via the [Billing Page](https://console.victoriametrics.cloud/billing) of your VictoriaMetrics Cloud account.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Each deployment operates with predefined configurations and limits, protecting you from unexpected overages caused by factors such as:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Data ingestion spikes.
|
||||||
|
* Cardinality explosions.
|
||||||
|
* Accidental heavy queries.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This ensures predictable costs and proactive alerts for workload anomalies.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note: VictoriaMetrics Cloud does not store or process your payment information. We rely on trusted API providers (Stripe, AWS) for secure payment processing.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

## Usage Reports
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The [Usage Reports](https://console.victoriametrics.cloud/billing/usage) section in the billing area provides a breakdown of:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Storage Costs
|
||||||
|
* Compute Costs
|
||||||
|
* Networking Costs
|
||||||
|
* Applied Credits
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Your Final Monthly Cost is calculated as `usage - credits` and reflects the amount billed by your payment provider.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A graph is also available to display the daily cost breakdown for the selected month.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Payment Methods

VictoriaMetrics Cloud supports the following payment options:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Credit Card
|
||||||
|
2. AWS Marketplace
|
||||||
|
3. ACH Transfers
|
||||||

You can add multiple payment methods and set one as the primary. Backup payment methods are used if the primary fails. More details are available via the [Payment Methods](https://console.victoriametrics.cloud/billing) tab of the Billing Page.
|
||||||

||||||

### Credit Card
|

Credit cards can be added through [Stripe](https://stripe.com/) integration.

Payments made via [AWS Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-atfvt3b73m2z4?sr=0-1&ref_=beagle&applicationId=AWSMPContessa) include billing details in the AWS portal. AWS finalizes monthly bills at the start of the next month, typically charging between the 3rd and 5th business day.

### How is deployment usage metered?

||||||
|
|

### How do you charge for spikes in load?
