When you need more credits, you have two options: buy them instantly yourself, or let auto top-up add them for you when your balance runs low. Both live under Billing, in the Credits & top-up section, and both use the same top-up blocks sized and priced to your plan.

Instant top-up

The credits land on your balance immediately. Instant top-up credits expire with your base plan, at the end of its current validity period.
Auto top-up
Auto top-up keeps your API credits from running out. When your balance falls below a threshold you set, We-Link automatically buys a top-up block and adds the credits to your account, so your integrations and assistant workflows keep running without interruption. No downtime, no manual purchase, nothing to babysit.
Before you start
Auto top-up needs two things in place:
An active paid plan (Starter, Growth, Scale, or Pro). Top-up blocks are sized to your plan and billed at your plan's per-credit rate.
A payment method on file. This is the card auto top-up charges when it runs.
How to turn on auto top-up
Go to Billing, then open the Credits and top-up section.
Switch on Auto top-up when API credits run low. This opens the Edit auto top-up window. Turning the switch on does not activate anything on its own, you finish setup in this window.
Choose your block. This is how many credits get added each time auto top-up runs. You can add more than one block per top-up with the stepper.
Set your threshold. Auto top-up runs whenever your balance falls below this number of credits. The default is 1,000 credits.
Read the auto top-up terms and tick the box to authorize recurring automatic charges. The Update button stays disabled until this is checked.
Press Update. Auto top-up is now active and shows as Configured.
If you close or cancel the window before pressing Update, nothing is authorized and the switch stays off.
Top-up sizes and prices by plan
Each top-up block is billed at your plan's per-credit rate, so the higher your plan, the less each credit costs.
Plan | Block size | Price per block |
Starter | 2,000 credits | $19 |
Growth | 5,000 credits | $42 |
Scale | 15,000 credits | $95 |
Pro | 40,000 credits | $199 |
You can top up by more than one block at a time. The window shows the total amount before you confirm.
When top-up credits expire
Top-up credits are added to your existing balance and expire with your base plan, at the end of its current validity period. They do not carry a separate expiry date of their own.
What you're authorizing
Auto top-up is the one action that charges you while you are not present, so it always passes through the terms and the acceptance checkbox. By turning it on you authorize We-Link to charge your payment method on file automatically, without further action from you, each time your balance falls below your threshold.
If you change your block, threshold, or payment method later, you'll be asked to accept the terms again, because each of those changes what you're authorizing.
Changing your auto top-up settings
Open Billing, go to Credits and top-up, and select Edit top-up. You can adjust the block size, the threshold, or the payment method, then accept the terms and press Update to save. Your changes take effect on the next auto top-up.
Turning off auto top-up
Switch off Auto top-up when API credits run low in the Credits and top-up section. It stops immediately, with no extra confirmation. Turning it off stops all future automatic charges. It does not affect credits you've already bought, those stay on your balance until they expire with your plan.
If an auto top-up payment fails
If the charge is declined, the top-up does not go through and execution is paused until you update your payment method. Once you update it, auto top-up runs again and your flow resumes.
Cards are usually declined because they've expired, have insufficient funds, or the bank blocked the charge. Updating to a working card in Payment methods clears it.
