Prepaid credits on the Anthropic Console
description
API usage on the Anthropic Console is typically funded by prepaid credits — an organization adds credits to its account balance, and API usage is deducted from that balance as requests are made.
how it works
When the credit balance is exhausted, further API requests are blocked until more credits are added (or, if configured, an auto-reload mechanism tops up the balance automatically once it falls below a threshold).
source note
General billing mechanism description for a prepaid-credit model; no specific credit-package dollar amounts are stated, since this session did not perform a live pricing search to confirm current figures.
