| Identity | card email address and password at signup; phone number verified by SMS before the first purchase ('Raff requires phone verification for security'); payment by card saved with the payment provider (USD 1.00 check charge credited to the account balance) or by a payment link when no card is saved; wire transfer and crypto through support; minimum age 18; no identity document named on the pages read |
| Egress | bandwidth is stated as unmetered on every plan, over a 3 Gbps port on General Purpose and a 1 Gbps port on Cost-Optimized free allowance: unmetered |
| Retention | not applicable: the unit is a machine, not stored bytes; billed in advance for a monthly, yearly or 24-month period |
| Interface | rest, cli, ssh Raff API, CLI, Terraform provider and MCP server; browser terminal and SSH with root access |
| Tooling | Raff API, CLI and Terraform provider; 20+ OS templates; the page documents no third-party client |

| Reliability | no outage or suspension event recorded; General Purpose carries a 99.9% SLA with 3x replicated NVMe, Cost-Optimized has local NVMe and no SLA |
| Notes | USD, billing terms monthly, yearly and 24 months. Cheapest plan USD 4.99 a month; USD 3.49 applies to the first month only. Whether tax is added at checkout is unverified. Each account may have one free managed database, which belongs to the databases-kv topic. |
| Evidence note | reported the 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 25 GB shape and the 3 Gbps port come from the provider's own offer post on a forum; the product page states the USD 4.99 price but its General Purpose plan table is not in the page text, so the shape has no first-party quote yet |
