Updated over a month ago

What is Auto-Recharge?

Auto-Recharge automatically purchases additional credits when your balance drops below a threshold you set.

This ensures you never run out of credits in the middle of working on a project, providing uninterrupted access to HeyBoss's AI features.


How Auto-Recharge Works

  1. You set a minimum credit threshold (e.g., 50 credits)

  2. You choose a recharge amount (e.g., 200 credits)

  3. When your balance falls below the threshold, HeyBoss automatically purchases the recharge amount

  4. The charge goes to your payment method on file

  5. You receive a confirmation email
