What budget should you plan for Phidias 2.0?
Former Static, OTP, and fixed-promotion tables no longer estimate current cost. Start with the family, payment mode, CASH activation, and any reset you would actually accept.
Commercial disclosure
I am a Phidias affiliate and also perform support and community-management work for the firm. This relationship may influence my analysis. Facts therefore link to official rules, while limitations are stated without promising any outcome.

The displayed evaluation price is not the full comparison
Evaluation prices are dynamic. Under a monthly plan, CASH activation is a one-time payment that lasts until the account fails. Under a one-time plan, the official rules currently state no CASH activation fee.
