First, the trial's shape depends on which plan the ticket names, and the ticket is a human gate that can be refused. Second, whether the phone check accepts a number outside the vendor's home region is not stated. The vendor's own FAQ answers 'Can I get a free VPS forever?' with 'No, the free option is a 24-hour trial', so there is no free tier to be had here beyond the day.","extras":{"shape":{"vcpu":null,"ram_gib":1,"disk_gib":15,"gpu_class":null,"gpu_count":null,"note":"the KVM-1 paid plan, which the trial page says it mirrors; the VPS page lists RAM and disk but no vCPU count for KVM-1"},"billing_model":"free","term":"24 hours, then blocked unless renewed at USD 10 a month","m10h_usd":0,"m24h_usd":0,"price_arithmetic":"USD 0.00 for 24 hours; renewal is USD 10.00 a month for KVM-1, which is the first paid month, not a free continuation","free_tier_kind":"trial","network_out":{"allow_outbound":true,"allow_inbound_listen":true,"ports":"1 Gbps port, one IPv4, all ports except SMTP 25/465/587","static_ip":true,"ipv6":null,"per_session_bytes":"10 TB per month, then shaped to 100 Mbps"},"session_cap":{"wall_clock_min":1440,"idle_reap_s":null,"restart_required":false,"note":"hard 24-hour block, no idle reap published"},"signup_url":"https://vds.guru/trial/","credit_usd":null,"credit_hours_at_shape":null,"card_hold_usd":null,"payment_methods":"none for the trial; the page states 'there's no card on your account'"}},"claims":[{"path":"$.extras.m10h_usd","kind":"price","num":0.0,"unit":null,"per":"month","currency":"USD","usd":0.0,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.extras.m24h_usd","kind":"price","num":0.0,"unit":null,"per":"month","currency":"USD","usd":0.0,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.free_tier.stated","kind":"free-quota","num":24.0,"unit":"hours","per":null,"currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.limits[0].value","kind":"limit:retention-clamped","num":24.0,"unit":"hours","per":null,"currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.limits[1].value","kind":"limit:volume-quota","num":10.0,"unit":"TB","per":"month","currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"ok"},{"path":"$.limits[2].value","kind":"limit:write-gated","num":null,"unit":null,"per":null,"currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"unparsed"},{"path":"$.limits[3].value","kind":"limit:per-ip-shaping","num":null,"unit":null,"per":null,"currency":null,"usd":null,"fx_date":null,"parse":"unparsed"}],"unknown":[],"history":[],"drift":[]}]}
