-# Manage your Amazon GameLift Servers hosting costs
-
-Your AWS bill reflects your game hosting costs. You can view estimated charges for the current month, and final charges for previous months on the Billing console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/costmanagement/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/costmanagement/). For more information about tools and resources to help you manage your AWS costs, see the [AWS Billing User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/billing-what-is.html). This guide can help you review your resource consumption, establish future usage, and determine your scaling needs.
-
-Consider these tips to help you manage the cost of Amazon GameLift Servers services. 
-
-## Create billing alerts to monitor usage
-
-Set up an AWS Free Tier usage alert to notify you when your usage is nearing or exceeding the Free Tier limits for Amazon GameLift Servers and other AWS services. You can configure the alerts to take action based on your usage levels. For example, you can automatically set your budget to zero when your reach a Free Tier limit.
-
-You can also set Amazon CloudWatch billing alerts to get notifications when usage hits custom thresholds.

-
-## Track costs per Amazon GameLift Servers fleet
-
-Use AWS cost allocation tags to organize and track your game hosting costs based on Amazon GameLift Servers Amazon EC2 fleets and other resources. By tagging your fleets, either individually or by groups, you can create cost allocation reports that categorize costs based on the assigned tag. You can use this type of report to identify how fleets are contributing to your hosting costs. You can also use tags to filter views in AWS Cost Explorer.

-## Set managed fleet capacity to zero
-
-Managed fleets can continue to incur costs even when they're not being used to host game sessions. To avoid incurring unnecessary charges, [scale your fleet down ](./fleets-updating-capacity.html) to zero when not in use. If you use auto scaling, suspend this activity and manually set the fleet capacity.
