Postpaid method is adopted for on-demand billing. The cost is calculated for every minute and is charged on an hourly basis (if you use the service for one minute, the cost of this one minute will be charged at the integral hour of Beijing time). When charge, if your account balance is insufficient to pay for the bill, arrears will be generated, and the system will send you notice about the arrears. Please recharge the cash when there are arrears, the recharge amount will first be deducted for the arrears. Products with on-demand billing supported are as follows:

• Baidu Cloud Compute (BCC)
