Pay Only for What You Use with Radibase: Maximizing Your IT Investments
In today’s cloud market, Radibase offers a flexible pricing model so clients only pay for what they actually use. This cost-effective approach is designed to meet real business needs. Let’s look at how Radibase’s resource credits system helps businesses manage costs while keeping cloud services flexible.
Flexible Resource and Credit System
With Radibase, you’re billed monthly based on the maximum resources you’ve selected (your “limits”). However, you’re only charged for the resources you actually use, thanks to Radibase's credit system, giving you full control over expenses.
To track usage, go to Resources → Limits in Radibase. Here, you’ll see:
- Granted Resources: Total resources available in your plan.
- Used Resources: Resources used so far.
- Available Resources: Remaining resources for the month.
Credits are also shown here, helping you manage costs easily.
How the Credit System Works
Once you’ve paid for your resources, Radibase converts this allocation into credits. Each credit represents five minutes of resource availability, calculated on a monthly basis (30 days). Every five minutes, the Radibase software monitors your active instances, deducting credits for any resources in use. This continuous tracking ensures that you’re charged only for what you use in real time, with unused resources reflected as retained credits.
Benefits of Unused Credits: Flexibility and Rollover
A unique advantage of the Radibase credit system is its flexibility. If you prepay for resources that you don’t end up using by the end of the month, these unused credits do not simply vanish. Instead, Radibase allows you to carry these credits forward to the following month as a credit limit. This rollover feature means you can adjust to variable resource demands without incurring extra costs for unused capacity.
Additionally, with this system, you can monitor your usage and see exactly how many days remain before your credits run out. Should you need more resources before the month ends, you have the option to add additional credits, ensuring your operations run smoothly without interruptions.

Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with paying only for what you use and the freedom to carry unused credits forward – empowering your business to adapt with ease.
