Do I have to have a DigitalOcean account?

No, you can use our infrastructure if you prefer. It's a bit more expensive per test than using your own, but still very affordable.

How does the cloud billing work?

Worker servers are launched in your own DigitalOcean account. The cost of this varies but is not expensive, below is a guide for typical costs:

1 server with 10,000 users = $0.11
5 servers with 100,000 users = $0.66
10 servers with 200,000 users = $3.57

You can learn more about the DigitalOcean costs in our costing guide.
