Credit spend limit
The monthly spend limit caps how much usage credit the whole organization can spend in a calendar month. New organizations start with a $20 limit. Owners can raise it, lower it or remove it in Settings → Billing → Usage credits.
Open the limit
With usage credits on, click Adjust limit next to the current limit.
Enter a new amount
Type the amount in Monthly spend limit, then confirm with Set spend limit. To remove the cap instead, choose Set to unlimited.
The new limit applies immediately.
What counts toward it
Only usage paid from credits counts. Usage covered by your plan allowance never counts, and your plan is never blocked by this limit.
The usage credits section shows how much has been spent this month, the percentage of the limit used, and the date the count resets: the first day of next month (UTC).
When the limit is reached
Requests that would need credits are refused until the next month or until an owner raises the limit. In chat the message is You’ve reached your monthly usage-credit spend limit. Raise it in Billing to keep going. Requests your plan can still cover keep working.
Three different limits
| Limit | What it caps | Who sets it | Where |

| Credit spend limit (this page) | Total credit the organization spends per month | Owners | Settings → Billing → Usage credits |
| Member and group limits | Credit one member may spend per month | Owners and administrators | Settings → Billing, below usage credits |
| Limit on automatic charges | What may be charged to your card automatically per month | Owners | Settings → Billing → Spending |
