Network Transfer Pool
Network Transfer Pool combines all transfer quotas included in all of your UpCloud products and services into a single account-wide transfer pool, free of charge!
Network Transfer Pool combines all transfer quotas included in all of your UpCloud products and services into a single account-wide transfer pool, free of charge!
It just does!
All transfer quotas included with your public cloud services, such as Simple plan Cloud Servers and Object Storage, in all data centres are combined in the account-wide transfer pool.
You can use all of your UpCloud services exactly as you please, including network transfer, with no hourly limits or throttling. Find out more at our documentation.
If a resource instance exists for less than a full calendar month, it will contribute proportionally according to the number of hours it existed. All accumulated quota is usable throughout that month even if the contributing services are deleted.
Network Transfer Pool operates on the account level and combines all transfer quotas including services deployed by any subaccounts. All subaccount users are also able to benefit from the total quota.
All existing public cloud services contribute to the Network Transfer Pool regardless of whether they are running or shut down. Every service which includes transfer quota in the plan contributed for the duration of their lifetime.
At the turn of the calendar month, the total earned quota from all resources is counted towards your total outbound transfer usage. Any outbound network transfer exceeding the combined Network Transfer Pool is then billed at €0.01 per GB and the pool reset.

Not by just momentarily exceeding your quota. You can still benefit from the full 1 Gbit/s connection on your cloud services until 20 TB over quota, at which point the outbound connection is reduced to 256kbps. Note that you can always deploy new resources to accumulate more quota. The excess transfer is billed at the end of the calendar month giving you a lot of flexibility in your transfer usage.
You will be able to benefit from a full monthly transfer quota, almost as if nothing changed. All quota accumulated before deletion is retained in the Network Transfer Pool and the new Cloud Server will begin to accumulate quota after deployment.
All quota accumulated in the Network Transfer Pool is retained until the end of the calendar month at which point the total usage is subtracted from the pool. Afterwards, both network usage and the transfer pool are reset for the next month.
Network Transfer Pool is applied to all UpCloud users for their benefit and there is no option to opt-out. If you wish to track network usage independently between resources, you can do so at your UpCloud Control Panel or via the UpCloud API.
