Monitoring billing and usage details

If you've been assigned a superuser or billing role, you can review billing and usage details by selecting Billing from the user quick links menu at the top right of any page.

Before you begin

Be sure you know how to access the web interface controls before learning about each of the pages you'll encounter there. Pay particular attention to the Billing menu.

For paid-accounts, the Billing overview page allows you to view bill-related metrics for your account broken down by product and region over key, monthly timeframes. These metrics provide insights into what you're being charged for by Fastly and how that amount applies to the various products you've purchased and the regions in which traffic to your services operates.

Monitoring account and service usage metrics

View your account usage metrics broken down by product and region over key, monthly timeframes by selecting Plan usage from the Billing menu. These metrics provide insights into the month-to-date usage of things your account's billing is based on (for example, Image Optimizer requests or Concierge TLS). Use the information here to help you estimate your bill and plan for the future.

Upgrading to a paid account

If you are on a trial account for delivery services, you can upgrade to a paid account from the Billing information page, if you have the appropriate permissions to do so.
