Tencent Cloud provides a variety of billing methods. You can switch between Bill-by-bandwidth and Bill-by-traffic in the console, but for each CVM, switching between the two methods can only be performed twice at most.

You need to submit a ticket to apply for activating it. For more information about the billing methods, please see Billing of Shared Public Network.
