Buy credits for another user

For our IaaS customers, we’ve added a nice little feature that allows you to let others give you credit, or to buy credit for other users.

We implemented this feature with three use cases in mind:

  • Many of the open source projects hosted by us can ask for support in the form of credits to help run their Gandi server
  • Sites hosting communities (games, cultural associations, non-profits, etc.), and would like to ask their members for credits
  • Small entrepreneurs who run servers for their customers can now ask their customers to pay directly for their servers
The system works by simply telling Gandi where the credit resources you order should be sent. Or, you can use a link with a Gandi account handle on your site, like this:
