Billing Overview

Runcrate uses a prepaid credit system. You add credits to your account, and they are deducted automatically as you use GPU instances, Models API, and storage.

How It Works

  1. Add credits to your project using a payment method
  2. Deploy instances, call the Models API, or create storage volumes
  3. Credits are deducted automatically — hourly for instances, per-request for API, weekly for storage
  4. When your balance gets low, auto-recharge tops up automatically (if enabled), or resources are terminated to prevent debt

Billing Dashboard

Navigate to Dashboard → Billing to access all billing features:

Credit Balance

Your current credit balance is displayed prominently at the top, along with:
  • Estimated hours remaining based on your current burn rate
  • Burn rate showing hourly credit consumption

Transaction History

View all billing activity in a filterable, paginated table:
  • Filter by type — Deposits, Usage, or All
  • Each transaction shows — date, description, amount, status, and invoice link
  • Status badges — Completed, Pending, Failed, or Accumulating

Payment Methods

Manage your credit and debit cards. Set a default payment method for top-ups and auto-recharge.

Auto-Recharge

A banner at the top of the billing page shows your auto-recharge status. Configure a threshold and recharge amount so you never run out of credits unexpectedly.

Billing Profile

Set your billing name, company, and address for invoices. This information appears on receipts and Stripe invoices.
Billing is per-project. Each project has its own credit balance, transaction history, and payment methods. Only Owners and Admins can access billing settings.
