Billing Config

Game checkout links can append selected options. Typical fields:

Match these names to your billing system. Examples:
  • WHMCS may use billingcycle and config[...].
  • Paymenter may use cycle and options[...].

​
Location Options

Locations should match the real regions you can provide. Check each location against:
  • Public product copy.
  • Billing configurable options.
  • Pterodactyl location or node mapping.
  • Stock availability.
If the billing panel expects numeric IDs, map friendly location labels to the required billing parameter values.

​
Software Options

Software options can represent:
  • Vanilla.
  • Paper.
  • Purpur.
  • Forge.
  • Fabric.
  • BungeeCord.
  • Velocity.
  • Game-specific versions or loaders.
Only show software options that your deployment flow supports.

  • Yearly price.
  • RAM.
  • CPU.
