Adding cloud credit

Objective

With the cloud credit option you can allocate a specific amount to your Public Cloud project which will serve as the default payment method for the billing of the project.
This means that cloud credit is debited first and any outstanding amount will be then be paid by other available payment methods. (Please consult the Public Cloud billing guides to learn more about this topic.)
