Scaleway's savings plan is a commitment-based discount program that provides more cost-effective billing compared to the pay-as-you-go model. This plan merges the benefits of discounted rates with the adaptability of pay-as-you-go billing.
14+
15+
## How do Scaleway savings plans work?
16+
17+
When you purchase a savings plan, you:
18+
19+
1. Commit to a certain amount of spending per month for a set period of time (3 years, for example).
20+
<Message type="note">
21+
Commitment rates are calculated based on the public prices of resources before taxes and do not include any discounts.
22+
</Message>
23+
2. Receive a discount on your monthly bill in exchange.
24+
3. Have the discount applied to the total amount of resources you use, up to the committed amount.
25+
26+
<Message type="important">
27+
Keep in mind that:
28+
- If you use less than you committed to, you will still be billed for the committed amount with the savings plan discount applied.
29+
- If you use more resources than the committed amount, you will be charged the standard prices for the excess amount.
30+

<Lightbox image={image} size="medium" alt="the image contains a graph showing a simulation of how the savings plan works for an account. X axis = month and Y axis = commitment amount in Euro. A horizontal line represents the committed amount. The graph displays the consumption of an account over three months. In the first month, the consumption is under the committed amount, so under the line. For the second month, the consumption is exactly the committed amount, so it joins the line. On the third and last month, the consumption went over the committed amount. Therefore, it goes over the line." />
33+
34+
### Example
35+
36+
If you have a Compute savings plan with a committed amount of 900€ per month over 3 years, a 10% discount is applied. Your consumption within the savings plan will cost you 810€ per month.
37+
38+
If in the month of March you consume:
39+
40+
| Number of Instances | Instance Type | Hourly Price | Usage (in hours) | Monthly total |
41+
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
42+
| 1 | DEV-1S | €0.008 | 744 | €5.95 |
43+
| 1 | POP2-64C-256G | €2.35 | 381 | €895.35 |
44+
| | | | **Total** | **€901.30** |
45+
46+
You will be charged:
47+
48+
| Detail | Amount |
49+
| --- | --- |
50+
| Savings plan committed amount | €900 |
51+
| Savings plan 10% discount | -€90 |
52+
| Additional consumption | €1.30 |
53+
| **Total untaxed bill** | **€811.30** |
54+
55+
To sum up:
56+
57+
Since the savings plan has a committed amount of **€900**, you would be charged the discounted monthly fee for the committed amount (**€810**) added to the excess amount used above the committed amount, charged at the standard price (**€1.30**) equating to your total untaxed bill in March (**€811.30**).
58+
59+
### Eligibility and quotas
60+
61+
Your Organization is eligible to purchase a savings plan if:
62+
- It does not have any ongoing signed sales agreements with Scaleway
63+
- You have verified your identity via the Scaleway console
64+
- Does not have any outstanding invoices
65+
66+
### Scope
67+
68+
Currently, Scaleway only offers savings plans for compute resources.
69+
70+
### Commitment amount
71+
72+
The monthly commitment amount for a savings plan must be at least €50 and at most €9,999. The amount you specify will determine in which discount bracket your plan falls.
73+
74+
### Duration
75+
76+
The commitment period can last 12 or 36 months. The longer the commitment, the higher the discount offered.
77+
78+
### Payment options
79+
80+
Payments are made on a monthly basis as part of your regular billing cycle.
81+
82+
### Discounts
83+
84+
Savings plan discounts are applied automatically to the eligible services.
85+
86+
At Scaleway, the discounts are applied in the following order:
87+
- Free tiers or free trials - savings plan discounts will apply after any eligible free tier or trials have been used. This ensures that you maximize your free usage before the savings plan discount is applied.
88+
- Savings plans, and
89+
- Discounts (vouchers or credits) - Any applicable vouchers or credits are used and applied after the savings plan discount.
90+
91+
Understanding this order helps you optimize your savings and ensure that you make the most of the available discounts.
92+
93+
### Cancellations and exchanges
94+
95+
Savings plans cannot be canceled or exchanged.
96+
97+
If you need to request a change to your savings plan, [contact the sales team](https://www.scaleway.com/en/contact-sales/).
98+
99+
We do not make refunds for savings plans that have already been invoiced.
100+
101+
### Taxes and currency
102+
103+
The total cost displayed for the savings plan does not include applicable taxes. Taxes are displayed on a dedicated section of the invoice, under the summary of your Projects' total consumption.
104+
105+
<Lightbox image={image2} size="medium" alt="" />
106+
107+
Currently, we invoice all customers in euros (EUR). If your primary currency is different, our Payment Service Providers (PSPs) apply the prevailing exchange rate.
108+
109+
## How to purchase a savings plan

112+
113+

114+

118+
119+
