Chapter 1. Configure Billing
In this tutorial you’ll learn how the 3scale billing system works and how to set it up.
When setting up your billing configuration, you can choose between Prepaid and Postpaid.
- Prepaid mode: In prepaid mode, all fixed fees and setup fees are billed immediately at the beginning of the month or at the beginning of any pro-rated billing period. Variable costs are always calculated at the end of the month.
- Postpaid mode: In postpaid mode, all fixed fees as well as variable fees are billed at the end of the month.
To do so, go to Audience > Billing > Charging & Gateway.

All paid plans are charged monthly.
