Credits make usage-based pricing simple and transparent. In Stigg, a credit represents a unit of value in a custom currency that you grant to customers and deduct as they use metered features. Each customer has a credit pool per currency and a ledger that records every action: grants, deductions, expirations, revocations, and adjustments. Stigg’s real-time consumption logic decides which credits to burn first, ensuring the right blocks are used in the right order. Usage reports flow into Stigg, get mapped to credit costs, and trigger immediate deductions. Webhooks keep your billing and analytics in sync, while widgets show customers their balances and usage trends in real time.

Use-cases

Credits decouple cost from usage details to:
  • Include predictable allowances in subscriptions with recurring credits
  • Offer prepaid packs by selling usage up front
  • Incentivize adoption with promotional credits
  • Mix and match models using hybrid pricing
