HI 👋

You would want to review our recurring pricing models for working with Subscriptions to verify we can support the use case you are envisioning.

https://stripe.com/docs/products-prices/pricing-models#model-usage-based-pricing-on-stripe

You would likely want to use an initial flat fee to represent the first x number of requests: https://stripe.com/docs/products-prices/pricing-models#adding-flat-fees

rustic anvil HI 👋 You would want to review our recurring pricing models for working with S...

Thanks! Basically, this is the pricing I would need:

10$ flat fee -> includes 1k requests
0.1$ per unit -> over 1k requests

99$ flat fee -> includes 10k requests
0.02$ per unit -> over 10k requests

Which of the ones you sent would be better for that?

#

I wasnt sure because both could replicate my usecase, if I understood that right.

#

I would not try to pick and choose just yet. Read the whole doc carefuly and make sure you understand how each pricing model works before you decide which one will work for you

#

My approach would be a flat_amount=1000 and then a unit_amount=0010 + up_to=inf. Is that right? @rustic anvil

What API are you referring to? What section of the doc I sent you?

Refering to this

#

In that case you would be charging per request for the first 1K or 10K requests. You want 2 tiers with the same flat fee
0 - 1K unit_amount=0

#

1k up_to=inf unit_amount = 10

#

So that way your customers pay just the flat fee for their first batch of requests, and extra for each request after that

#

Okay, thanks a lot for clarifying.

#

Sure thing! I would recommend building this out in Test mode to verify the behavior you want: https://stripe.com/docs/test-mode

#

You can even use Test clocks to simulate time passing so you can test out Subscriptions https://stripe.com/docs/billing/testing/test-clocks

#

Wow I did not know about the clocks. Thanks!!
