Plans can be billed weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually (every 6 months), or yearly. Even on quarterly, semiannual, and yearly plans, Commet checks for usage charges every month. Here’s what your customers can expect.

Weekly Plans

Your customer is billed every 7 days. The billing period, consumption resets, and invoicing all happen on a weekly cycle.
  • Plan base charged every week
  • Usage (credits, balance, metered) resets every week
  • Extra seats charged every week
  • The billing day anchors to the day of the week the subscription started (e.g., every Monday)
Weekly plans reset consumption every 7 days, not monthly. A customer on a weekly plan with 1,000 included API calls gets 1,000 calls each week.

Monthly Plans

Straightforward: your customer is billed every month for their plan base, extra usage, and extra seats.

Quarterly, Semiannual, and Yearly Plans

Your customer pays the plan base every 3, 6, or 12 months, but usage charges can happen every month. Here’s how it works:

Example: Quarterly plan at $300/quarter

Usage resets every month, not every quarter, half-year, or year. A customer on a quarterly plan with 10,000 included API calls gets 10,000 calls each month — they don’t accumulate.

What Your Customer Sees

Plan Changes Mid-Cycle

If your customer upgrades a quarterly, semiannual, or yearly plan mid-cycle, they get credit for the unused portion and start a new cycle from the change date. See Proration for the exact calculation.
