Last updated: 2026-03-17
Forgeon billing combines plan tiers with usage‑based charges.
What you pay for
- Plan (subscription tier)
- Usage (runtime + database)
- Add‑ons (marketplace or extras)
Billing flow in one glance
- Plan assignment determines baseline limits/features.
- Runtime/DB usage events are recorded continuously.
- Usage is rolled up into billable metrics.
- Credits are applied according to policy.
- Final invoice is generated for the cycle.
Where to see it
- Settings → Billing plan
- Settings → Billing usage
- Settings → Credits
How invoices are generated
- Usage is rolled up hourly
- Plan + usage are combined into a monthly invoice
- Credits (if available) are applied
Practical controls you should enable
- Low-balance credit alerts.
- Usage threshold alerts for high-cost metrics.
- Clear tenant ownership for plan changes.
- Monthly invoice review checklist for finance/admin.
Troubleshooting
Usage looks empty
- Wait for rollups to complete (hourly).
- Confirm events are being ingested from deployment/runtime services.
Plan changed but limits unchanged
- Check active plan assignment and policy snapshot refresh.
- Verify tenant context is correct in dashboard session.
