Billing
How billing and credits work on the Poomi platform
Poomi uses a credit-based billing system. You purchase credits in advance and each API call deducts a fixed number of credits based on the endpoint.
How It Works
- Purchase Credits — Buy a credit package from the Billing page
- Make API Calls — Each call deducts credits based on the endpoint's cost
- Monitor Usage — Track your credit balance and usage history in the dashboard
Credit System
- Each published endpoint has a predefined credit cost (e.g., 5 credits per call)
- Credits are deducted from your account balance when a request succeeds
- If your balance is insufficient, the request returns a
402error with codeINSUFFICIENT_CREDITS - Failed requests (4xx/5xx errors) do not consume credits
- Credits are based on the endpoint called, not the complexity of the input
Checking Your Balance
View your current credit balance on the Dashboard Overview or Billing page.
