How do multiplayer services work with the free plan?

On the pricing page, it says that the free plan comes with 750 free hours for multiplayer services, but when you scroll down, it says that you get 750 hours included per month. Does the free plan come with 750 hours in general or per month? I'm a little bit confused about whether or not games using the free plan have to pay for multiplayer services.

All tiers have a limited number of free CPU hours of hosting per month, on specific server models and in specific regions, as described in the pricing page and docs (also, the doc page shows an example of calculating costs, including account for your Standby servers, so that you have a clear picture of what the billing would look like, given an example of usage - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/playfab/features/multiplayer/servers/billing-for-thunderhead#estimating-cost-with-an-example). All usage of the multiplayer service outside that is charged at the rates shown in the docs, regardless of tier.
