Usage-Based Billing
Stripe MCP Setup
Requires Stripe MCP (https://docs.stripe.com/mcp). GetMcpTools before CallMcpTool. Paginate all lists (limit: 100, starting_after while has_more). Amounts in cents. Read-only for audits; confirm before writes.
Concepts
| Model | Setup |
|---|---|
| Pure metered | Meter + usage-based price; bill actual usage |
| Prepaid credits | Credit grant burns down with usage |
| Hybrid | Base subscription + overage above included quota |
Modern Stripe uses Meters + Meter Events (billing/meter-events), replacing legacy usage records.
