# Wallet and usage

> Check your balance and machine time, buy credit, change your plan, and see what you spent, in the dashboard.

## Check your balance

Open **Wallet**. It shows your plan and the current period, and four figures:

| Figure | Meaning |
| - | - |
| **Balance** | Everything credited minus everything charged. It says "Paid work paused" when the balance is under your plan's minimum. |
| **Credited** | Purchases, grants, and signup credit |
| **Charged** | Platform usage, all time |
| **Machine time** | Time used this period, out of what your plan includes |

When the balance is under the \$0.50 minimum, the page says "Paid work is paused" and asks you to add credit. See [when credit runs low](/wallet#when-credit-runs-low).

## Buy credit

You need the admin role.

1. Open **Wallet**. Under **Credit packs**, each pack shows its price, the credit it adds, and its fee.
2. Choose **Buy** on a pack and pay in the Polar checkout.
3. You come back to the Wallet. It shows "Credit added to your wallet." once Polar confirms the payment.

If the payment fails, the Wallet says "The payment did not go through. Nothing was charged."

## Change your plan

You need the admin role.

1. Open **Settings**, then **Plans**. Each card shows the plan's price, machine time, extra machine time, sessions at once, and what tokens cost.
2. Choose **Compare** on the plan you want.
3. From Free, choose **Continue to checkout** and pay. From a paid plan, choose **Open billing portal** to change or cancel your plan with Polar.

On a paid plan, **Manage plan** on the Wallet opens the same billing portal. See [plans and machine time](/plans).

## See what you spent

Open **Usage** and pick a period: **24h**, **7d**, or **30d**. The top row totals model tokens, model calls, compute time, storage, tool calls, and web searches. Three tabs break it down:

* **Daily**: usage and cost per day.
* **Model tokens**: tokens and cost grouped by model, provider, credential, session, or agent.
* **Events**: the latest usage rows, each with its meter, quantity, cost, session, and model.

A session's own cost, tokens, web searches, and machine time are in its details on the session page. The same figures come from `GET /api/usage` and `orca usage`; see [wallet and credit](/wallet#read-the-wallet-and-your-usage).
