BoxLite Cloud meters three things, by the hour: Nothing else is metered — no charge for network traffic, API requests, mounted volumes, preview URLs, or boot time. There is no minimum billable duration and no rounding up to the hour. Usage is funded by a prepaid wallet, or by a plan whose included quota is consumed first.

Wallet or a plan?

Plan tiers, and the usage level at which a subscription starts costing less.

Managing billing

Top up, set automatic reload, and read what you were actually charged.
