Requesty bills from a prepaid USD balance: every request deducts its cost from your organization’s balance, and a request is rejected with a 402 error once the balance runs out. Manage everything from Billing settings in the Console.
Billing is admin only. See RBAC for the role breakdown. Topping up
Open Billing settings and choose Top up. Pick an amount in USD credits, a payment method, and a currency. A 5% service fee is added to every top-up, so a 100top−upcosts105 and credits $100 to your balance.
Your balance is always held in USD credits. When you pay in another currency, checkout shows the exchange rate (1 USD = the converted amount) and the converted base, fee, and total before you pay; the displayed rate already includes currency conversion costs.
Cards are processed by Stripe. Requesty stores only a reference to the payment method, never the card details.
Auto top-up
Auto top-up keeps your balance above a floor you choose. In the top-up dialog, enable Auto top-up and set:
- Threshold: the USD balance that triggers a charge
- Top-up amount: the USD amount charged each time
When your balance falls below the threshold, Requesty charges your saved payment method for the top-up amount plus the 5% service fee and credits the USD amount to your balance. The charge is made in your card’s currency when it is one of USD, GBP, EUR, JPY, or CNY; cards in other currencies are charged in USD.
Only one top-up runs at a time, and repeated triggers within a short window do not double-charge. If the card keeps declining, auto top-up stops trying until a charge succeeds or you set it up again.
Disable auto top-up at any time from the same dialog.
Your balance is also your in-flight request limit: the limit is your balance multiplied by your tier’s multiplier. An auto top-up threshold keeps that limit stable, so set the threshold so that threshold times your multiplier covers your peak concurrency. Billing history
The billing page lists every payment for the organization: the USD credits added, any gift or promotion bonus, the service fee, the total charged, the charge currency, and the status. In-flight charges appear as Pending until the payment completes; completed charges show Paid.
Invoices
Turn on Invoices in billing settings and each charge generates a Stripe invoice with your organization’s invoice name, address, and tax ID, taken from your billing details. For a past card payment that has no invoice, open its row in billing history and choose View or Download: Requesty creates the invoice retrospectively and downloads it.
Post-paid organizations
By agreement with Requesty, an organization can run post-paid instead of prepaid: traffic keeps flowing while the balance is negative and usage is settled separately. Post-paid status is set by Requesty and cannot be enabled from the API. Contact [email protected] to switch.
