Start with the question

How can an agency avoid hiding a client’s hosting cost inside a shared portfolio?

Buying a VPS is a decision about the project boundary and operating work, not only the monthly number.

Check these criteria

  1. Base plan and selected recurring options
  2. Period discount versus commitment length
  3. Separate domains, licenses, agency work and network fees

Use only the plans, countries, options and payment routes shown in the current service facts. The checkout does not create a managed service or a confirmed order.

Filled decision example

A portfolio has three client sites, each with separate domain and maintenance agreements. The agency records the selected plan and recurring options per client before deciding whether shared operations hide any costs.

Verification: Verify the period total covers the selected VPS/options only; do not blend network fees, domains or agency labour into an unlabelled line.

When this choice fits

Keep each client’s budget decision separate even if operations share a wider planning process.

Record the approval before using a VPS configuration.
