How GPU Rental Pricing Works in India
Per-Second Billing
Most providers (including us) bill per second. Stop your instance, billing stops. No hourly minimums.
Example: Used RTX 4090 for 23 minutes? You pay ₹28. Not ₹73.
Credit System
1 credit = ₹20. Buy credits, use them across any GPU. No expiry.
- ₹100 = 5 credits
- ₹500 = 25 credits
- ₹1000 = 50 credits
Payment Methods in India
💳 UPI - PhonePe, GPay, Paytm - instant payment
💰 Cards - Debit/Credit cards accepted
🏦 Net Banking - All major Indian banks
🌍 PayPal - For international payments
Hidden Costs to Watch Out For
Storage Billing
When you stop a GPU, compute billing stops. But storage continues at reserve rate (~₹5/hr).
Pro tip: Terminate instances you don't need. Don't just stop them.
Data Transfer
Most providers charge for egress (data out). We don't. Upload/download whatever you need.
