The docs state:

Usage limits are available for all users on the Pro plan and for users on the usage-based version of the Hobby plan.

If I'm not mistaken, I'm on the usage-based version of the Hobby plan (see img).

Yet I see no place where I can set limits/alerts.

do you load credits or is your card charged automatically?

deft ruin
#

I guess this means I load credits

#

So why does it say "Usage-based" subscription, if the definition in the docs is different?

somber grove
#

all plans are usage based

#

your limit is defined by how many credits you choose to load

#

Usage limits are available for all users on the Pro plan and for users on the usage-based version of the Hobby plan.

#

If this is true, and what you said is true, then I should be able to set up alerts/limits?

deft ruin
#

Yeah but that's different because that's always a hard limit, with no prior alert.

#

as long as you have usage alerts enabled, you will get alert emails

(barely designed website with no gzip on responses received quite some traffic from HN today)

#

OK, where do I set those usage alerts?

somber grove
#

enable usage alerts from within the account settings

deft ruin
#

I see, it's a more general setting

#

under General

#

got it, that's good enough I guess

#

Thanks again sir

somber grove

no problem!
