Does Route53 bill based on useage or is it a service I'm subscribed to?

0

I had teased the idea of migrating my client domains over to Route53 to manage DNS over the summer and imported a bunch of zone files (18 in total).

I ended up going with a different service provider for DNS management, but I'm still getting billed ~$10/month for Route 53. I have double-checked and none of my client domains have their name servers set to Amazon.

So my exact question is this:

Is Route53 a subscription service that I unknowingly signed-up for and that's why I'm getting billed, or do I (unknowingly) have a domain using Route53 and I'm getting billed for useage?

No it’s not subscription based but per resource.

Route 53 bill you on a per zone per month and per X queries.

Ensure you have no zones configured which you no longer need.

If you have setup inbound or outbound resolvers you will Also be charged for having them configured.

    Could a "receiver" be a connection from a control panel like Plesk? I'm not fimiliar with that term

    Receiver I’m not familiar with. Resolvers are used for internal resolution from/to for example on prem type connections.
