Billing

When does the billing start?

It starts when the Free Tier is consumed.

When does the billing end?

If the project is not deleted, the billing ends after the last installment. Otherwise, the billing will end at the project deletion.

Do I have to pay all the installments if I delete my project?

If the project exceeds the Free Tier, you will pay only for the transformed lines of code (not part of previous billed installments). The installments are canceled, and the billing is done once. Otherwise, no payment is required.

Is there any way to pause billing on a TC project?

No.

How billing occurs for my Transformation Center projects?

What happens when I add files to my project?

Does the charge per LoC depend on the size of the codebase?

Does the system keep track of what has already been transformed?

There are badges in the Usage module that indicate the consumption of the Free Tier and Billable lines.

If there is a change to a program that was previously transformed (imported using Catch-up), does it only charge for the additional/changed lines?

Yes, if the original files are overwritten using Catch-up. Only the newly added lines will be charged.
