DocsBilling & Wallet

How the Prepaid Wallet works

No invoices, no subscription — a balance that's drawn down as your services actually run, tracked live on the Billing page.

Qeda bills prepaid: there's a balance (My Credit Balance), and running services draw it down as they run rather than generating a bill afterward. Billing & Wallet is where that balance, its burn rate, and every top-up or charge live.

The Billing page header: Current Month Usage, My Credit Balance, and Auto Top-Up cards
"Current Month Usage" and the wallet balance are two different numbers — usage is what's been spent so far this month, the balance is what's left to spend.

What you're paying for right now

The "Wallet" card breaks the burn down live: cost per hour, per day, a runway estimate (days left at the current rate), and the raw rates themselves (per vCPU-hour, per GB-hour, per companion-service-hour). A "Running projects" list shows exactly what's accruing cost — empty and it says so plainly, rather than showing a blank list with no explanation.

The Wallet card showing 0 XOF per hour and per day, an "ALLOCATION · BILLING PAUSED" badge, and "Nothing is running — you're not being charged."
This account's billing is currently paused — the mode badge (allocation/usage, plus "billing paused" when it applies) reflects the account's real state, not a fixed label.

Note. Two billing modes exist — "allocation" (billed for capacity reserved, regardless of load) and "usage" (billed for what's actually measured running) — shown as the badge next to "Wallet." Which one applies depends on the account, not something toggled from this page.

The ledger

Every top-up and charge lands in "Wallet activity" — a running balance, not just a list of amounts. This account's only entry so far is its signup credit.

The Wallet activity table showing one credit entry: "Welcome credit — one month of a Small app on us," +4,000 XOF
A real welcome credit, not placeholder data — new accounts start with something to try the platform before paying for it.

Note. Wallet activity isn't the same as Invoice History further down the page — top-ups and usage charges show up here immediately; invoices (covered in "Understanding your invoice history") are a separate, formal record.
