The Billing tab

Meilisearch Cloud Billing tab showing billing settings, payment method, and estimated cost for next bill
The Billing tab shows:
  • Billing settings: your current Tax ID and default payment method
  • Manage billing settings and invoices: button to open the Stripe portal for full billing management
  • Estimated cost for next bill: a line-by-line breakdown of charges accrued in the current billing period, covering all active projects

​
What affects your bill

Only active projects generate charges. Deleting a project stops billing immediately. Team members and API keys do not affect billing.
