Managed Agents uses prepaid credits in US dollars. You buy credits for your tenant from the Billing screen, pay by card on Stripe’s secure pages, and download a receipt for every purchase.

Before you begin

  • You need the billing, admin, owner, or primary owner tenant role. Other roles don’t see Billing. See Organizations and roles.
  • Billing is done in the console while you’re signed in. Buying credits, reading the balance, and managing cards are console actions, not API-key operations.
  • Credits belong to the tenant as a whole, not to one organization.

Read your balance

Open the Recursion console and click Billing in the sidebar. The top of the screen shows:

Buy credits

  1. In Billing, click Buy credits.
  2. Enter a whole number of dollars in Amount (USD), from 5to5 to 1,000. The default is $20.
  3. Click Buy $20 (the button shows your amount).
  4. What happens next depends on your card:
    • With a saved card, your default card is charged now. You’ll see Payment received.
    • Without a saved card, click Pay $20 on Stripe and enter a card on Stripe’s secure invoice page. The card is saved for later purchases.
    • If your bank asks for confirmation, finish it on the same Stripe page.
  5. Come back to the console tab. It watches the purchase and updates on its own.
What success means: the purchase shows Paid in Purchases, and the credit appears in Credit balance within a few seconds. The balance updates only after Stripe confirms the payment, so it can trail the purchase briefly. Buying is safe to retry. If a purchase’s response is lost and you buy the same amount again, you get the same invoice rather than a second charge.

Cancel an unpaid purchase

If you started a purchase that goes to Stripe’s page and you don’t want it, click Cancel purchase in the drawer before opening Stripe. Closing the drawer any other way leaves the purchase payable from its row with Pay on Stripe. An unpaid purchase is canceled automatically about a day after it was created. A purchase that was already charged can’t be canceled.

Manage cards

Payments are card only. You enter card details on Stripe’s pages; the console never shows a card field. Stripe opens in a new tab. When you come back, the console refreshes your card. If you remove the default card, your next purchase asks for a card on Stripe’s page.

Track purchases and receipts

Purchases lists every purchase, newest first, with its date, credits, and status. A paid purchase has a Receipt link to its Stripe invoice.
