By Admin · Feb 7, 2026 · Updated Apr 24, 2026 · 7 views · 2 min read

In this article, we'll walk through the complete process of working with credit in a server environment. Understanding prepayment is essential for maintaining a reliable and performant infrastructure.

Prerequisites

  • Access to your Kazepute account dashboard
  • Root or sudo access to the server
  • A registered domain name (for public-facing services)
  • A VPS running Ubuntu 22.04 or later (2GB+ RAM recommended)
  • Basic familiarity with the Linux command line

Accessing Billing Settings

Regular maintenance is essential for keeping your credit installation running smoothly. Schedule periodic reviews of log files, disk usage, and security updates to prevent issues before they occur.


Portal Dashboard → Account → Billing Settings

1. Click "Payment Methods" tab
2. Click "Add Payment Method"
3. Enter your card details
4. Click "Save" to update

The configuration above sets the recommended values for a VPS with 2-4GB of RAM. Adjust the memory-related settings proportionally if your server has different specifications.

Understanding Charges

Before making changes to the configuration, always create a backup of the existing files. This ensures you can quickly roll back if something goes wrong during the setup process.

Advanced Settings

If you encounter issues during setup, check the system logs first. Most problems can be diagnosed by examining the output of journalctl or the application-specific log files in /var/log/.

Managing Payment Methods

It's recommended to test this configuration in a staging environment before deploying to production. This helps identify potential compatibility issues and allows you to benchmark performance differences.

1. Click "Payment Methods" tab
2. Click "Add Payment Method"
3. Enter your card details
4. Click "Save" to update

This configuration provides a good balance between performance and resource usage. For high-traffic scenarios, you may need to increase the limits further.

Wrapping Up

Following this guide, your credit setup should be production-ready. Keep an eye on resource usage as your traffic grows and don't forget to test your backup and recovery procedures periodically.
