Replicate billing (October 2026) and how to stop charges
As of 2026-10-18, Replicate pricing is usage-based (per-second / per-output for models); newer accounts use prepaid credit (non-refundable, often expires ~12 months) with optional auto-reload (billing docs). Stop spend by disabling auto-reload in Billing and removing payment methods; for any committed subscription-like fee, email [email protected] before renewal per terms.
Deleting an API token does not by itself stop auto-reload.
There is usually no flat “Pro $X/mo” consumer plan — invoices reflect usage or credit top-ups. Confirm your Billing page.
