Charges for the Subscriptions with different billing types

Details about Charges generation and their life cycle for different billing types are given in the following sections:

Charges are generated at the moment of the Order creation, excluding the Pay as you go billing type (see Pay as you go. Charges generation).

The table below shows the operations that cause Charges generation.

This is applicable to the Subscriptions with the CSP annual, CSP monthly, ESET solutions for ISP (Monthly), and G Suite billing types.
