1. **Wallet Type:** The type of wallet for the project. This can be changed by contacting the sales team.
   * **Prepaid:** This type requires funds to be added to the wallet before resources can be used. It is the default type for all newly created projects.
   * **Postpaid:** This type allows for immediate resource usage. The total usage is calculated, and funds are deducted from the wallet at the end of each billing cycle (monthly).
2. **Wallet Status:** The wallet's status affects resource usage within the system. Possible statuses are:
   * **Normal:** The standard status, indicating that resources can be used without restriction. (Note: For Prepaid wallets, the balance must be greater than zero to create new resources).
   * **Overdue:** A status specific to Postpaid wallets. It occurs when payments for past billing cycles are outstanding beyond the due date. Resources remain accessible during this period.
   * **Paused:** In this status, Compute Instances within the project are paused (suspended, but not shut down), and many actions are restricted. This occurs when:
     * **For Prepaid wallets:** The balance falls below zero.
     * **For Postpaid wallets:** The account remains in an Overdue status for an extended period.
   * **Halted:** In this status, Compute Instances within the project are shut down (powered off). This occurs when the wallet remains in a Paused status for an extended period.
   * **Terminated:** In this status, all resources within the project are permanently deleted. This occurs when the wallet remains in a Halted status for an extended period.
   * **Temporary Enabled:** A temporary status that allows paused or halted Compute Instances to be reactivated for a short period.
3. **The current wallet balance.**
4. **An estimated timeframe** before the next wallet status change (this may vary based on usage).
5. **A section to top up the wallet**, where you specify the amount before proceeding to NIPA Payment.
6. **A section to redeem promotional vouchers.**
7. **The history of top-ups and voucher redemptions.**
8. **The total usage** for the current billing cycle.
