Products
With products, you can configure the resources allocated to new servers created on your dashboard. You can set the pricing of any product to however you would prefer it to be and link them to specific nodes and eggs. You can check out the Pterodactyl server creation page for more information about the specific options like CPU and IO.
Credits System
Credits are charged hourly based on the monthly price you've configured (price / 30 / 24). For example: Say a product is listed for 100 credits. It will take away 0.138 credits away from my account every hour I have it until the month passes. It'll add up to 100, then repeat the cycle unless I delete my server. This means that the price of your products won’t be charged right away when the user creates a server, but instead, the credits are reduced hourly—giving the user the option to cancel and create servers freely anytime. When the user runs out of credits, their server will automatically be suspended and if they want their server to be unsuspended, they must get more credits.
Product Linking
Information
Product linking allows you to configure the nodes and eggs this product can be a used on. For example, you have a node that is more powerful than another node, you may most likely want to charge a bit extra for the usage of this node. Or you may have a node dedicated for Minecraft hosting and another node for discord bots. Using the node and egg links, you can easily keep your pricing and server creation separated.
Hiding nodes and eggs
You can hide specific nodes or eggs from being used by not configuring them in any of your products. This way, they won’t show up in the server creation page and therefore can’t be used by your customers. This is great if you have some nodes or eggs that you want to exclude from your dashboard.
Tips
If you have a well-configured product, you can use the Copy button to duplicate the product and create slight variations of it easily.
