RelayPDF bills from a prepaid USD wallet. New accounts receive $5 trial credit. There are no monthly document tiers — you pay for successful jobs.

Debits

Successful operations debit millicents from the wallet. Failed jobs and rate-limited requests are unbilled.

Auto-reload

Set a low-balance threshold and reload amount. Stripe charges the saved payment method off-session. If the amount matches a top-up pack, the pack bonus is credited.

Top-ups

Checkout charges the listed pack amount. Larger packs credit a bonus (for example $20 paid credits $21). Credit never expires.

Insufficient funds

When balance is too low, write endpoints return 402 payment_required without charging.
