Usage and billing

Which events count against your plan, which are always free, and what happens when a subscription lapses.

What bills, what never does

Plans are sized by billable events per month. An event bills exactly one unit when it is a pageview, custom event or conversion from real customer traffic: valid, not a bot, and not a duplicate. Everything else is always free.

One click never double-bills through our own features

When a no-code rule and a raw track call describe the same click under the same name, the pair costs one unit. The one way to pay twice is instrumenting the same element twice yourself under the same name with two mechanisms; the custom events page flags it.

The account meter

DashboardAccountUsage

The meter in the user menu and under Account → Usage shows the month's billable count against your plan, with a per-site split so one noisy site cannot hide inside the total.

The per-site view

SiteSettingsUsage

Each site's Settings has a Usage tab: what this site sent, what your other sites sent, and what remains.

Usage and analytics are counted differently, on purpose

Usage counts events as accepted; analytics counts them as they occurred. The two systems agree in total but are deliberately not the same query, so a usage number and an analytics number for the same window can differ slightly without either being wrong.

Plans, upgrades and lapses

  • Every plan is paid; there is no free tier, because free analytics is usually paid for with visitors' data. Move between sizes whenever traffic changes, and cancel any time.
  • Hitting a plan's ceiling warns you in the dashboard well before anything is dropped.
  • Deleting a site or your account is self-serve and irreversible; the Privacy Policy names the two records that survive, and why.

If a subscription lapses

Collection pauses after 24 hours, and the site's data is kept for 90 days so you can come back by subscribing again. After that it is permanently deleted. The paused-site screen shows both deadlines.
