How the Billing Cycle Flows

EDBB invoices run on a predictable rhythm: reminders before the due date, multiple nudges if payment fails, and a clear suspension/deletion window if the balance stays overdue.
1

Invoice Creation (Day -7)

Seven days before renewal, the system generates the invoice and emails you the PDF.
2

Auto-Capture Attempt (Day -6)

Saved cards are charged automatically. Update card details in the portal if the attempt fails.
3

Reminder Countdown (Day -2)

A friendly reminder lands in your inbox two days before the due date—ideal for manual reviews or alternate payment methods.
4

Invoice Due (Day 0)

The service is still active, but payment is now required. Overdue reminders begin the following day.
5

Overdue Nudges (Day +1, +2, +3)

Daily reminders encourage settlement while the VPS continues running. Pay any time to stop the sequence.
6

Suspension (Day +7)

The VPS is powered off and access is blocked. No data is deleted yet—pay the invoice to restore service automatically.
7

Termination Phase (Day +14)

If unpaid, the subscription is terminated. The VPS remains powered off but disk data is still retained.
8

Final Deletion (Day +20)

Storage is wiped permanently. At this point the service cannot be recovered; you’ll need to order a new VPS and restore from backups.

Reactivate Before Day +20

  • Settle the outstanding invoice and the VPS will power back on automatically.
  • Need more time? Contact Support via messenger or email before suspension hits—we can advise on options.
  • Always maintain off-site backups so you can recover quickly if deletion occurs.
