Maybe just me, but I wish the automatic payments had way lower threshold. Why is the minimum payment threshold $100 dollars, where I add $50 dollars?

Like, I would have preferred if I drop below $10 dollars, I add $50 dollars, or something. I don't like just keeping a random 100 dollar in my account.

IMO, what is the point of the automatic payments then? So I can just keep a floating 100?

Also automatic payments don’t always work for some reason

@vital grotto In fact, this was actually changed to be that way after people pods were being shutdown pretty quickly every time there is a payment issue, which can happens to everyone.

It was increased a bit to ensure people have enough credits left to pay for their pod rentals for a good while even if a payment failed.

How would you weight that benefit vs recharging at a lower credit count?
