Billing
An overview of WarpStream's billing model
Overview
WarpStream utilizes a consumption-based billing model. Billing settings are configured per WarpStream account. By default, new accounts are billed monthly in arrears for consumption metered in the prior calendar month, however custom payment schedules, payment terms, and pricing are available with a minimum commitment.
Billed usage for WarpStream resources is metered in hourly intervals. To review a breakdown of your consumption during the current billing period, or view invoices for past billing periods, navigate to the Usage tab of the Billing screen in the WarpStream console.
