How we calculate
- Display currency

- VAT
- Prices exclude tax. Local taxes such as VAT or GST depend on your country. Korea-based buyers pay 10% VAT.
- Monthly conversion
- Hourly prices are multiplied by 730 hours per month (8,760 hours per year / 12) (NAVER Cloud Platform, Kakao Cloud: 720 hours). Flat monthly products use their amount as is. NHN Cloud does not state an official monthly conversion, so we use 730 hours.
