- This step will stop all billing activities on your account. Additionally at this point, you can still return to StackPath and use any service without having to create a new account.

View an invoice
- In the StackPath Control Portal, in the top, right corner, select your username / user icon.
- Click Billing.
- Click Billing History.
- Under Action, click PDF for the desired invoice.
Review the following notes about billing:
- The base amount for a service is billed in advance.
- Any additional consumption over the base amount will be billed afterwards on a monthly basis.
- StackPath services include network and application-layer DDoS attack protection that mitigates most attacks at no additional charge.
- In certain instances, an attack will target assets cached on the StackPath CDN (i.e. images or static assets). If an attack requests those assets and the assets are delivered by the CDN, then the bandwidth used to deliver those assets is counted as bandwidth consumption, which will be reflected on the next invoice.
- If your total bandwidth consumption does not exceed your monthly subscription, then you should not be billed for additional charges.
- If your total bandwidth consumption exceeds your monthly subscription, then the extra bandwidth will be charged at the standard additional bandwidth rate.
- In certain instances, an attack will target assets cached on the StackPath CDN (i.e. images or static assets). If an attack requests those assets and the assets are delivered by the CDN, then the bandwidth used to deliver those assets is counted as bandwidth consumption, which will be reflected on the next invoice.
