Prepayment bonus is back!

Last fall we eliminated the prepayment bonus when we lowered prices on bigger slices. Since then, there’s been a steady stream of pleas in our suggestion box to reinstate it. Ask and ye shall receive – the bonus is back in effect! To get it, make a payment that is the greater of 6x your current monthly bill or $240.

Examples:

Monthly bill: $20 – a payment of $240 or more to get the 10% bonus

Monthly bill: $70 – a payment of $420 or more to get the 10% bonus

We hope this helps people making annual payments on a business credit card or those of you managing your own customer projects on Slicehost. Enjoy!

    Hello – We made a fairly large prepayment at the end of last year, What can we do to secure at least part of the bonus?

    What does bonus mean? Does it cost 10% less or does the 10% carry forward on our next bills?

    I have made a prepayment in Jan 09 but don’t aware the prepayment bonuse is gone at that moment. Can I get back the prepayment bonus?

    Jim/tinyau, If you made a payment recently that would have qualified, send us a support ticket we can probably help you out.

    Ryan, Its a 10% bonus, meaning if you pay X dollars you get credit for 1.10 * X dollars.

    Great news.

    Do you mean “a payment that is the greater of 6x your current monthly bill and $240”? The examples suggest that the payment has to be at least the more of the two numbers.

    Bradley Wright, I’ve heard you can pay with PayPal using their debit card: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=p/acc/dc_intro-outside
