Contabo VPS 商家购买教程 - 注册账户以及使用 PayPal/信用卡进行付款

前几天看到 Contabo 上线了新加坡机房（Contabo 来自德国的老牌靠谱VPS商家/新增新加坡机房/月付€4.99欧元起），就寻思着买一台看看，因为价格确实是很便宜，配置又非常高。于是就随手记录了一下购买过程。但是买完发现还要身份验证，买个国外的 VPS 居然还要我提交护照或者身份证，果断就申请退款不买了。但是购买过程记录都记录了，就顺手发一下吧。

一、Contabo 选择套餐

进入 Contabo 首页之后，可以选择对应的套餐进行购买。

比如我们选择 VPS 套餐里面最便宜的一个，4.99 欧元一个月的，点击进入下一步。

进入下一步之后可以选择付款周期和机房位置，目前新加坡机房和美国机房都是需要额外加钱的。此外一般都需要设置费，如果购买一年是不需要设置费的。

二、Contabo 注册账户

再到下一步界面就该注册账户了，如图所示，一些要填写的信息都已经列举如下了。

以及输入两次邮箱地址。

三、Contabo 付款教程

接下来就是付款页面，选择 PayPal 或者信用卡就可以付款。我用的是 PayPal 付款，付款之后就可以看到下面的成功页面。

提示正在处理，可能需要 3 小时左右。

不过过了会儿我又收到邮件要求提交身份信息，我是真的不想买个 VPS 都提交这种信息，于是就要求退款了。

不过目前几天过去了退款居然还没退回来。

下面附上 Contabo 要求验证的邮件内容，网上查了查说有一定概率要求验证，看运气吧。
