    What is usage-based billing?

    Usage-based billing—also known as metered billing—is a flexible billing model that charges customers based on their consumption of a particular product or service.

    Unlike flat-rate pricing, usage billing ensures that customers pay for what they use, providing a fair and scalable solution for both the provider and the customer.
