# Billing

Last updated Aug 24, 2026|Copy as Markdown|[View as Markdown](https://docs-durable-objects-instance-replaced-errors.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/billing/index.md)|[Agent setup](https://docs-durable-objects-instance-replaced-errors.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/agent-setup/)

Cloudflare bills on a recurring cycle for each domain on your account — every 30 days for monthly plans or annually for yearly plans. Plans and add-on services are billed separately, and some products use [usage-based billing](https://docs-durable-objects-instance-replaced-errors.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/billing/understand/usage-based-billing/). You can pay with Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Stripe Link, or UnionPay.
