How billing works

What draws on your credit, when, and what never does.

Toden runs on prepaid credit held in US dollars. You add credit in the console under Billing, and usage draws it down. Your current prices are shown there, per product and per check.

The rules that matter when integrating

Sandbox identity checks are free

Verifications run with test keys and test IDs never draw on credit.

You pay for what runs

A verification is priced as the sum of the checks it actually performs, such as the government lookup, document reading, liveness and face match.

Faults on our side are returned

If a verification ends in error because of a system or provider fault, the charge is returned automatically.

A real answer is still an answer

A check that completes and finds a mismatch, an expired document or no record was performed, so it is charged.

Identity verification

SituationCharged?
Sandbox verification with a test IDNo
Production verification that completes, whatever the outcomeYes
Production verification that ends in errorNo, the charge is returned
The customer abandons the flow before submittingNo
A retry with the same metadata.requestIdNo, you get the original verification

Risk Intelligence

Risk Intelligence requests are priced per decision or per screening run. One difference from identity verification is worth planning for:

In Sandbox, a Risk Intelligence request that names a sandboxScenario is deterministic and free. An ordinary Sandbox request without a scenario uses your configured Sandbox pricing and can be charged. Use scenarios in automated tests.

When credit runs out

  • Risk decisions fail closed. A transaction or activity decision that cannot be paid for is not silently allowed. See Errors for the INSUFFICIENT_CREDIT response and how to resume.
  • Face match and contact verification refuse the request up front with 402 insufficient_credits, so nothing is started that cannot be completed.
  • Verifications and one-off checks are accepted and then do not complete. Watch for the insufficient_credits reason code on the result and the credits.low webhook before that point.

Set a low-balance alert under Billing and subscribe to the billing webhooks so your team hears about a low balance before your customers do.

Check a price before you build

The workflow builder in the console shows an estimated cost per verification as you add checks, and the Billing page lists your current rates. Prices are specific to your account, so this documentation does not quote them.
