Wallet

The wallet is a prepaid credit balance you can use to cover on-demand AI usage that goes over your plan's included quota.

The wallet is a prepaid balance that funds AI usage above what your plan includes. It sits alongside your subscription, not instead of it. Two kinds of teams use it: organizations with a one-off spike — a product launch, a campaign, a viral moment — and small organizations that prefer pay-as-you-go for low, irregular usage. Go to Billing → Wallet to manage it.

What the wallet covers

The wallet pays for on-demand AI usage once you've gone past your plan's included quota. That includes LLM tokens, embeddings, text-to-speech minutes, and document processing — the same line items you'll see on Cost insights.

It does not cover plan-level features like additional widget slots or higher CRM record limits. Those still require an upgrade.

Adding funds

Click Add funds

The button is on the wallet page. A dialog asks how much you want to add.

Pick an amount

Pick a preset or enter a custom amount. The processing fee shows under the total so there are no surprises.

Confirm

Confirm to charge the card you have on file in Stripe. The funds land in the wallet immediately.

Funds don't expire while your Informly subscription is active. Top up once, draw down over time, top up again when the balance gets low.

When the wallet drains

The wallet only matters when you're already over your plan's quota — until then, AI usage comes out of the plan and the balance doesn't move.

If you're over plan quota and the wallet hits zero, new AI requests are rejected until you top up. Conversations in flight finish; new replies fail. Subscribe to a notification channel for a low-balance alert so this doesn't surprise you.

Set up the alert through Outreach → Notification channels so the warning lands in Slack, Discord, or email before things break.

Wallet vs. upgrade

Pick the wallet for one-off spikes and the upgrade path for sustained higher usage.

Best when you're under plan quota most months and only occasionally cross the line. A wallet top-up costs less than a plan upgrade for one busy week.

Best when you're consistently over quota. A higher plan includes more usage at a lower effective rate than buying it through the wallet. See Upgrade or downgrade.

Transaction history

The history table is your audit trail. Each row is one of these:

  • A top-up (positive amount, source: card)
  • A draw-down (negative amount, source: a specific feature like "LLM tokens" or "TTS")

Filter by date range or by source to investigate where the balance went. For per-record detail behind a draw-down, click through to AI usage.
