What if I Exceed My Configured Message Packs?

If your usage remains at or below your configured level, your bill is consistent from month to month. If your usage exceeds your configured level, your monthly bills might vary.

Additional guidance:

  • Excess becomes overage

    If the number of consumed messages exceeds the number of configured messages during a one-hour period, the excess messages are considered overage.

  • Overage is billed

    For billing purposes, overage messages are converted into consumed message packs.

  • Billing calculation rule

    Billing is based on the greater of the following values:

    • Configured message packs

    • Consumed messages

  • Configured message packs set service limits

    Your configured message packs set your service limits, including processing limits for synchronous and asynchronous requests. Using overage messages does not increase these limits.
