Hetzner servers are billed with a monthly price cap and an hourly rate. The monthly price cap ensures that you won’t pay more than the set monthly rate, regardless of usage. If you delete your Cloud Server before the billing month ends, you’ll only be charged for the hourly rate up to that point. Each cloud server is billed until deleted, regardless of active use.
