Billing After a Plan Change (How Account Credit Is Applied)

Billing After a Plan Change (How Account Credit Is Applied)

Overview #

An invoice that arrives after you change your plan may still show the amount for your previous plan. The amount has already been adjusted correctly, so you can pay the invoice as it is. This page explains why this happens and how to read the amount you actually pay.
The difference has already been refunded as account credit. It is applied automatically when you pay, so no special action is required on your part.

You can pay the invoice as it is #

Even after your plan change is complete, an invoice that has already been issued may continue to show the previous plan name and amount. The difference has already been refunded as account credit and is applied automatically when you make the payment.

Tip: There is no need to have the invoice reissued, and no special steps are required on your side.

Why the invoice still shows the previous amount #

Invoices are issued automatically 7 days before the due date. If you change your plan after that invoice has been issued, the invoice keeps the content it was issued with.

Meanwhile, the difference from the change date to the next renewal date is automatically refunded as account credit at the time of the plan change.

Example #

Example: changing from 8GFXVPS (¥1,980 / month) to 4GFXVPS (¥980 / month)

Invoice (issued for the previous plan)¥1,980
Applied from account credit (difference already refunded)−¥1,000
Amount you actually pay¥980

From the next billing cycle onward, you will be billed ¥980.

The amounts above are an example for explanation. Actual amounts vary depending on your plan and the date of the change.

How to check your account credit #

When you log in to the client portal, your current balance is shown as “Available Credit” at the top of the screen. If you have credit available, this is indicated on the invoice payment screen and applied automatically when you pay.
