Traffic Pool

Tired of upgrading your KVM tier for more traffic? EDIS Global has the Solution!

Here at EDIS Global, we know that running out of traffic can be a real pain. That's why we're excited to announce our traffic pool feature! With a traffic pool, you can "hydrate" your VPS with traffic from the pool, before it is running dry.

To make it easy for you, we created two traffic zones rather than having a variety of different traffic-prices for our almost 50 locations.



Global Traffic Zone

The Global Traffic Zone is the standard traffic zone for all EDIS Global VPS hosting locations, and it sets the base price point.

Premium Traffic Zone

Our Premium Traffic Zone applies to services in regions where bandwidth is way more expensive: UAE/Dubai VPSAustralia VPSChile VPS and Colombia VPS. Keep reading to learn more about our traffic pool feature.

How to get started with a Traffic Pool



1

To get started with a traffic pool, simply top-up traffic pool through our cart.



2

Once the payment has gone through, traffic will be added to your traffic pool. Your pools balance will be displayed at every KVMs management page, in the "Traffic Information" window. We also display information regarding the traffic zone that applies to your VPS. This is particularly important to understand, because traffic in the Premium traffic zone is more expensive.

3

Use "Manual Hydration" buttons to assign pool-traffic to your KVM plan in +100GB, +500G, or +1TB increments

or activate our "Auto Hydration" feature to automatically add 100GB pool traffic increments to your VPS (to any VPS where enabled) once you reach a 99% traffic consumption level.



Adding traffic to a KVM in the Global traffic zone withdraws exactly the same amount of traffic from your pool. (adding 1 TB to a server subtracts 1 TB from the pool)

Adding traffic to a KVM located in the Premium traffic zone, withdraws 2x the amount you add to your KVM (double the price). (adding 0.5 TB to a server subtracts 1 TB from pool)
