# Billing cycles

> How HostCloud billing cycles work and how to change yours.

A billing cycle is how often you pay for a service. You choose it when you order.

| Product type | Available cycles |
| - | - |
| Web & WordPress hosting | Monthly, annually, biennially (2 years), triennially (3 years) |
| VPS (Linux and Windows) | Monthly, annually, biennially |
| Domains | Annually (register or renew for 1–10 years) |

Longer cycles generally give a lower effective monthly price.

## Change your billing cycle

[Open a billing ticket](/support/open-a-ticket) and tell us the service and the cycle you'd like. We'll update it before your next invoice is generated.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Promotional pricing for a first term may not apply to renewals. Your renewal price is shown on the order page and on your service details.
