Your account balance is a prepaid credit pool that can be used to pay for any charges on your account — including Core provisioning fees, domain registrations, domain renewals, and add-ons. Think of it like a store credit tied to your account.
## How It Works
Whenever a charge is incurred, your available balance is applied first. Only the portion of the charge that exceeds your balance is billed to your card. For example, if you have a $20 balance and incur a $30 charge, $20 comes from your balance and $10 is charged to your card.
## Included Credit at Checkout
When you complete checkout, your plan includes an account credit that is loaded onto your balance:
- **Enterprise:** $100.00 credit included
- **Consultant:** $40.00 credit included
- **Pay-As-You-Go:** No included credit
This credit is part of your first-month charge — it's prepaid funds loaded to your balance to offset ongoing charges throughout the month.
## Adding Funds
Only **Owners** and **Admins** can add funds. To top up your balance:
1. Go to **Billing** in the dashboard.
2. Click **Add Funds**.
3. Enter the amount you want to add. The minimum top-up amount is **$10.00**.
4. Confirm. The amount is charged to your card on file and added to your balance immediately.
## Viewing Your Balance
Your current balance is shown on the Billing page. You can also review all balance transactions — including credits, debits, and top-ups — in the transaction history on the same page.
> **Note:** Account balances are non-transferable and are not refunded automatically upon cancellation. Contact support if you have questions about your balance.
