The rate

One rate: 2.75 USD per GB per month, flat. Every plan computes from it exactly: RAM x 2.75 = the monthly price. 2 GB x 2.75 = 5.50. 12 GB x 2.75 = 33.00. Nothing hides behind arithmetic on a second page; every tier's implied per-GB comes out at 2.75 with no rounding needed.

The plans

The addons, priced in public

• Extra port allocation: 1.50 per month, one port allocation per purchase.
• Extra storage: 2.00 per month for each 25 GB block.
• Backup Plus: 2.99 per month; 2 extra backup slots, a 7-day backup schedule, and zip download of backups. Base plans include 2 backup slots with daily backups first.

One price everywhere: the site, the store, and the invoices carry the same numbers. That is a rule we hold ourselves to.

The billing cycles, with the arithmetic shown

Quarterly is 10 percent off, semi-annual is 15 percent off, annual is 20 percent off the monthly base, on all plans. Every cycle badge states its comparison base, so nobody re-derives the math in the dark.

One tier worked through, Peak (8 GB at 22.00 monthly):

• Quarterly: 3 x 22.00 x 0.90 = 59.40 total, which is 19.80 per month.
• Semi-annual: 6 x 22.00 x 0.85 = 112.20 total, which is 18.70 per month.
• Annual: 12 x 22.00 x 0.80 = 211.20 total, which is 17.60 per month.

The first-invoice code, in its honest shape

CARBON25 takes 25 percent off the first invoice only. One code, no stacking, and at renewal you pay list price. We display it the same way every time: first month X, then Y per month. On Starter that reads: first month 4.13, then 5.50 per month. The 4.13 is the code doing its one-invoice job; the 5.50 is the ongoing price.

No trial, no free tier

We sell no trial and no free tier. That was a deliberate decision recorded in our pricing record, and we own it: it keeps the ladder priced on what we can actually deliver.

The one-node story, because context is a cost

We run one dedicated machine: Xeon E3-1270 v6, 4 cores and 8 threads at 3.8 to 4.2 GHz, 32 GiB RAM, 3.6 TB RAID with 3.4 TB free. That box costs us 20 USD per month, plus the one-time 20 USD setup we already paid on 2026-10-15. Plain arithmetic for transparency: 20 USD for 32 GiB is 0.625 USD per GiB-month of raw RAM. We print the node's spec and its live status on the site, and we do not advertise infrastructure we do not have.

Our money back posture, stated plainly: 72 hours, full refund, once per client, nothing taken out. The complete wording lives on the refunds page.

Why publish all of this

Because prices are cheap to say and expensive to be wrong about. This page is the entire commercial sheet in plain numbers: one rate, seven plans, three addons, three cycles, one first-invoice code, and one honest machine. The live sheet always sits at the pricing page .
