# Backup Agent - Billing

## Billing

The product uses two elements to offer its service:

- The Backup Agent installed on your Bare Metal servers
- [OVHcloud Object Storage](https://us.ovhcloud.com/public-cloud/object-storage/)

We do not charge for the Backup Agent on your servers, i.e., you can deploy it on one or more Bare Metal servers free of charge.

However, you will be billed per GB per month for using OVHcloud Object Storage. You will be billed at the beginning of each month for your usage during the previous month.

Find the price per GB per month on our [website](https://us.ovhcloud.com/storage-solutions/backup-agent/).

You can use the [`Billing` tab for your Backup Agent service](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/#/bmc-backup-agent-baremetal/billing) to view your current usage and predict the final bill at the end of the month.

- **Example 1**: You have deployed the Backup Agent on three Bare Metal servers, and they send their data to their respective Vaults. The total capacity used by your backup data on the Vault servers is 600GB. You will be billed at the end of the month for 600GB.
- **Example 2**: You have deployed the Backup Agent on 10 Bare Metal servers, and they send their data to their respective Vaults. The total capacity used by your backup data on the Vault servers is 600GB. After a few backups, you remove the Backup Agent from four servers, deleting the data after 14 days. Total Vault usage drops to 400GB. You will be billed at the end of the month for 600GB.
