Bookkeeping categories

What category is Vercel in bookkeeping?

Vercel is usually categorized as Cloud Hosting & Infrastructure. Even Margin applies that category automatically when the charge arrives.

What Vercel is for

Inside Cloud Hosting & Infrastructure, Even Margin also tags Vercel by what it is for: Cloud & Infrastructure. It does the same for the 1,300+ tools on its list, so Analytics can show what your software is for: your spend on each kind of tool, side by side in one chart, with Vercel counted under Cloud & Infrastructure.

What Vercel charges are

Vercel bills a monthly plan per team member, plus usage such as bandwidth and function time beyond what the plan includes.

How Even Margin categorizes Vercel

Cloud Hosting & Infrastructure. Applied automatically, at high confidence.

  • Even Margin recognizes Vercel on your bank transaction, using the merchant list its team curates.
  • It categorizes the charge as Cloud Hosting & Infrastructure with high confidence, so it is applied without asking you.
  • Change it whenever you like, and Even Margin keeps your choice.

When a different category fits

Whatever you choose, a rule keeps every Vercel charge in the same place, including the ones already in your books.

  • Hosting you run for a client and pass on to them can go with that client's costs, with their payment back recorded against it.
  • If you would rather see all your tools in one total, Vercel can sit in Online Software. Keep whichever you pick.

Is Vercel software or hosting?

Hosting. Even Margin categorizes it as Cloud Hosting & Infrastructure, beside AWS and Netlify, so what your sites cost to run shows apart from the tools you design them in.

Why does my Vercel charge change from month to month?

Beyond the plan's included amounts, Vercel bills for usage such as bandwidth and function time, so a busy month costs more. Every charge still lands in the same category.
