Balance and top-ups

Understand prepaid balance, ways to top up and refunds so calls keep running.

Prepaid model

APIONE is prepaid: top up to create a balance, and calls draw it down in real time by actual token usage. Top-ups carry no bonus — what you pay is what lands. No monthly fee, no minimum spend. At zero balance new requests return 402 insufficient_funds; in-flight requests are unaffected.

Topping up

  1. Console › Balance › Add funds.
  2. Pick $10 / $50 / $100 / $300, or enter your own amount.
  3. WeChat Pay, Alipay, UnionPay, Visa, Mastercard, Google Pay and Apple Pay are supported; funds land as soon as the payment succeeds.
Note

Balance does not expire, and the unspent portion is refundable; consumed credit is not — see the terms. For a discount, look at subscriptions (bonus credit, valid 30 days) in billing.

Balance and history

Console › Balance shows your balance and plan credit; the Bills tab lists every order and balance movement (top-ups, spend, refunds).

Tip

An empty balance makes production return 402 outright — check it like disk space, and keep a few days of headroom on busy workloads.
