#How does billing work?
oakallow uses a prepaid credit model. Credits belong to your organization, not to individual user accounts — every team member who has owner-level access can fund the org, and every billable API call deducts from the org's balance.
You purchase credits via Stripe on the web, or via Apple In-App Purchase or Google Play Billing in the mobile apps. Credits are consumed by billable API calls at $0.005 per call. New accounts get a default organization seeded with $5.00 in free credits, which expire after 30 days.
- Starter: $9.99 for $10 in credits
- Builder: $24.99 for $25 in credits
- Growth: $49.99 for $50 in credits, plus a $2.50 bonus
- Scale: $99.99 for $100 in credits, plus a $10 bonus
When your organization's balance reaches zero, billable API calls against that organization are rejected until an owner adds more credits (or until the org has opted into team-pool fallback, in which case the team pool covers the overrun). Management operations are always free regardless of balance.
