Billing
IO Cooperative uses Freshbooks to mange our billing. Each IO member has a freshbooks account. Your account should have a recurring invoice configured which will be sent to you each billing period. Do please pay the invoice when you get it since we’ll need to use that money to pay the monthly bill with the datacenter.
You can access your freshbooks billing account here : https://my.freshbooks.com/
