# Tenant Types

#### **Pay-as-You-Go (Prepaid)**

Pay-as-you-go tenancies operate on a prepaid credit model. You add credits to your tenancy in advance, and resource usage is billed against your available balance in real time.

* **Billing model:** Prepaid credits
* **Adding funds:** Self-service through Administration → Billing → Add Additional Funds
* **Minimum top-up:** $250 USD
* **Payment method:** Credit card, processed securely through Stripe
* **Invoices:** Not issued for credit top-ups; payment receipts are provided by Stripe
* **Best suited for:** Customers who prefer flexible, on-demand usage without long-term commitments

***

#### **Standard Billed (Postpaid)**

Standard billed tenancies operate on a postpaid model. Resources are used throughout the billing cycle, and an invoice is issued for the total usage at the end of the period.

* **Billing model:** Postpaid, invoiced periodically
* **Adding funds:** Not applicable — usage is invoiced directly
* **Invoices:** Issued through the dashboard under Administration → Invoices
* **Best suited for:** Customers with predictable, ongoing workloads who prefer consolidated invoicing
