The Credits page lets you manage your AI Gateway balance, add payment methods, configure automatic top-ups, and track all credit transactions.
Credits page

The Credits page in AI Gateway, showing your balance, payment method, auto top-up settings, and transaction history.

Using credits, you can access Orq.ai Supported Models without needing a personal API key.

​
Available Balance

Your current credit balance is displayed at the top of the page. Credits are consumed as you make requests through the AI Gateway. Each model call deducts from your balance based on token usage and model pricing.
When you exceed the traces included in your package, tracing costs are also deducted from your credits. Credit purchases have a minimum amount of $5. See AI Gateway pricing for model and tracing cost details.
When your balance reaches zero, all AI Gateway requests are blocked until credits are added.

Payment Method

Add a credit card to enable credit purchases and auto top-up. Click Add new in the Payment Method panel to register a card.
At least one payment method is required to enable auto top-up.

​
Auto Top-up

Auto top-up ensures your balance never runs out by automatically purchasing credits when it drops below a threshold. To configure auto top-up:
  1. Enable the Auto Top-up toggle.
  2. Set the If balance drops below threshold (e.g. $50). A top-up is triggered when your balance falls below this amount.
  3. Set the Add credits amount (e.g. $200). This is the amount automatically added each time.
  4. Click Save changes.
Set your threshold high enough to avoid service interruptions during peak usage. A common setup is to trigger at $50 and add $200.

​
Transaction History

The Transaction History table shows a log of credit purchases only. Usage deductions from individual API calls are not listed here. Refer to the Observability quickstart for usage details.

​
Filtering Transactions

Use the Filter button to narrow down the transaction history by type:
  • Purchase: manual credit top-ups
  • Auto Top-up: automatic top-ups triggered by the auto top-up threshold

​
Invoices

Each credit purchase generates an invoice. To open an invoice, click the icon on the corresponding row in the Transaction History table and select Download Invoice.
