Account and billing

Credit and referrals

The wallet behind your allowance, top-ups, and the credit you earn by inviting people.

Credit is a plain USD balance attached to your account. It pays for free-tier runs, covers overage once a package's allowance is gone, and is what your welcome grant and any referral bonuses land in.

Where credit comes from

Covers about 14 more runs beyond your allowance, at $0.85 each.

How credit is spent

Two different rates, depending on whether you have an active package:

  • On the free tier a run is charged at what it actually cost. That is why $1.00 stretches to roughly three runs rather than one; the difference is what we spend on letting you try the product properly.
  • On a paid package runs come out of your monthly allowance first. Once that is used, each further run is $0.85 from credit.

Why your balance dips before a run finishes

Starting a run reserves credit for it, and the reservation is released and replaced by the real charge when the run settles. You will occasionally see a reservation and a release in your ledger around the same time; that is the mechanism working, not a double charge.

The reservation is also what makes it safe to start two runs at once: they cannot both spend the same last dollar.

Note

Your balance also caps how much an agent run is allowed to spend on itself. Holding $1.00 means the agent works to a $1.00 ceiling rather than its usual one, so it stops cleanly instead of running out mid-way.

Running out

Below a small minimum balance, new runs are refused with a message telling you so, rather than started and abandoned half way. Add a credit pack or pick a package and the same request works immediately; nothing you typed is lost.

Referrals

Your personal referral code is in Settings, under your profile details. When a new account is created with it, both accounts receive $1.00 of credit, recorded in each ledger as a referral bonus.

  • The bonus applies once per new account, at sign-up; it cannot be added afterwards.
  • The sign-up form does not show a code field yet, so pass your code along with the invite and we will apply it.
  • Referral credit behaves like any other credit; it has no expiry and no separate rules.
