Upgrade or Resize Your Plan
How to upgrade or downgrade your RemarkableCloud Cloud Cube: what changes, what stays the same, and how proration works.
Updated August 2026
You can upgrade your Cloud Cube to a larger plan or downgrade to a smaller one from the client area at any time.
How to upgrade
- Log into your client area at manager.remarkablecloud.com.
- Go to Services → My Services and click your Cloud Cube.
- Click Upgrade/Downgrade.
- Select the new plan from the list.
- Review the prorated cost and the new monthly price.
- Click Continue and complete payment if there is an amount due.
What changes during an upgrade
| Resource | Upgrade behavior |
|---|---|
| RAM | Increased immediately on next reboot |
| CPU | Increased immediately on next reboot |
| NVMe disk | Expanded immediately (no reboot needed) |
| Bandwidth | Plan allowance updated immediately |
| S3 storage | Allocation increased immediately |
A brief reboot is typically required for RAM and CPU changes to take effect. The reboot is fast: usually under 60 seconds.
What does NOT change
- Your server IP address stays the same
- All your data, websites, and databases are preserved
- Control panel settings and configurations are unchanged
- Your cPanel accounts and all hosted sites remain intact
Proration
Upgrades are prorated to the end of your current billing cycle:
- Upgrading mid-cycle: you pay the difference between your current plan and the new plan, prorated for the remaining days
- Downgrading mid-cycle: credit is applied to your next invoice for the remaining days on the higher plan
Example: You have a Shared CPU 4GB ($18/mo) and upgrade to Dedicated CPU 8GB ($40/mo) with 15 days left in the billing cycle. You pay ($40 - $18) / 30 × 15 = $11 prorated charge.
Choosing the right plan upgrade
| Current situation | Recommended upgrade |
|---|---|
| High CPU usage (consistently 80%+) | Shared CPU → Dedicated CPU |
| Running out of RAM | Same type, larger size |
| Running out of disk | Same type, larger size OR Storage Optimized |
| High-traffic WooCommerce | Dedicated CPU |
| Multiple WordPress sites on one server | Shared CPU 16GB or 24GB |
Check resource usage before upgrading: Before upgrading, check your actual resource usage in the server management dashboard or WHM. Many slowness issues are caused by plugin problems or missing caching: upgrading won’t help those. See the LiteSpeed caching guide first.
