Frequently asked questions
How does billing work for buyers?
Buyers pay per request via MPP. No account or subscription needed. Payment happens inline with each API request — Stripe card, Tempo USDC, or Lightning.
What does the platform fee cover?
The platform fee (10% free, 5% pro) is deducted from each request's earnings. It covers routing infrastructure, failover, key health monitoring, and payment processing.
Can I switch plans anytime?
Upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes take effect on your next billing cycle. Pro features activate immediately on upgrade.
What is the premium pool?
Premium pool keys have priority score ≥ 0.9 and at least 100 requests served. Buyers pay 25% more for lower latency and higher reliability. Premium pool access requires the Pro plan.
How do payouts work?
Earnings accumulate per request. Payouts are processed daily when your balance exceeds $25. Choose from Stripe ACH, USDC (Base/Polygon), Lightning, or bank wire.
Is there a free trial for Pro?
No trial, but you can start on Free with no commitment. Upgrade when the 5% fee savings justify $29/month — typically around $580/month in earnings.
