Prepaid Wallet

A prepaid wallet is how Ownkube Compute bills usage. Instead of a fixed invoice sized to capacity you picked in advance, you choose a plan (Personal at $5 a month or Team at $20 a month), that plan loads the matching credit into your wallet, and per-minute usage draws the balance down as your apps run.

Everything metered on Compute draws from the same wallet: active-CPU billing, working-set memory, egress past the free 100 GB, and build minutes past your plan’s included allowance. Reserved boxes, the flat-rate option used for databases and cache, also draw the wallet, just at a fixed rate instead of a metered one.

Unused wallet credit rolls over to the next month and never expires. The part of your plan that does reset monthly with no rollover is the included build-minutes allowance, not the wallet balance itself. You can also top up any time from a $5 minimum. If the balance reaches zero, apps pause with their data retained rather than accruing a debt, until you top up or the next monthly load lands.

Spend limits let you set a monthly budget and choose to just get notified, or have apps pause automatically once month-to-date spend hits the cap.
