Holds are right. We have been burned by the half-finished version of this elsewhere.
Shipped in 3.11.0. Metered usage now runs through a Flow wallet: you top it up with packs, and usage draws it down, with a hold placed when work is about to consume balance.
What is new:
- Wallet balance and history under Settings, Billing.
- Packs you buy ahead rather than overage you discover afterwards.
- Holds, so a large job cannot start and then run out halfway.
- Low balance alerts before the wallet empties, added in 3.12.1.
How this sits next to your subscription: the plan covers the product, the wallet covers metered usage on top. They are billed separately and a wallet top-up is not a subscription change.
The reason for holds rather than post-hoc billing is honesty about what will happen. A broadcast that stops at contact four thousand of ten thousand because the balance ran out is a worse outcome than one that refuses to start, and much harder to explain to whoever asked for it.

Low balance alert has saved us twice. ---
