# Billing and Payments

> Manage platform subscription, paid addons, and invoices

## Financial management

Manage your platform subscription, activate paid addons, and track invoices and payments.

## Platform subscription

Each platform has a main subscription that controls access to base resources. The subscription can be in one of the following states:

| Status       | Description                               |
| ------------ | ----------------------------------------- |
| **Active**   | Platform operating normally               |
| **Overdue**  | Payment pending, access may be restricted |
| **Paused**   | Subscription temporarily suspended        |
| **Canceled** | Subscription terminated                   |

## Payment methods

The platform supports the following payment methods:

* **PIX** - Instant payment via QR Code
* **Credit card** - Recurring payments

## Managing the subscription

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to Admin -> Billing">
    View the current subscription status and billing period.

    Monthly amount, current period, renewal date, and active addons.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Available actions">

### Cancellation

When canceling the subscription:

* You can choose to cancel **at the end of the period** (continue using until the renewal date)
* Or cancel **immediately**
* Cancellation reasons are recorded for feedback

### Reactivation

If you canceled but changed your mind before the end of the period, you can reactivate the subscription without data loss.

## Paid addons

Addons are extra features with separate billing. Each addon has its own monthly price and can be activated or canceled independently.

  <Step title="Go to Admin -> Addons">
    View the list of available addons with price and description.
  </Step>

    Complete the payment via PIX or credit card.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Addon activated">
    The addon is automatically activated and becomes available on the platform.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Canceling an addon

When canceling a paid addon:

* The addon is deactivated
* The addon stops working on the platform
* You can choose to cancel at the end of the period or immediately

## Invoices

The system generates invoices for each charge. Each invoice includes:

* **Amount** - Charged value
* **Status** - Paid, pending, or canceled
* **Payment method** - PIX or credit card
* **Payment date** - When it was confirmed
* **Due date** - Payment deadline

<Note>

## AI Credits

Beyond the main subscription, the platform offers AI credits for AI usage:

### How it works

* Each platform has a **monthly credit limit** included in the plan
* Monthly credits renew automatically each cycle
* Additional credits can be purchased as **one-time packages**
* Purchased additional credits **don't expire**

### Buying extra credits

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to Admin → Billing">
    In the AI credits section, view your current balance.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a package">
    See available packages with credit amounts and pricing.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the purchase">
    Pay via PIX or credit card. Credits are added immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Monitoring consumption

The administrator can track:

* **Current balance** of credits
* **Consumption** in the current period
* **Monthly limit** from the plan
* **Extra credits** purchased

<Info>
  When credits run out, AI access is paused until the next cycle or additional credit purchase.
