Trial Minutes Validity
These test minutes will be valid for 12 months from the date of your first API call, giving you enough time to explore the full potential of the platform.
Please note: While the trial minutes are free, an active account with a positive cash balance is required to use them.
Reason: This requirement prevents 401 Quota Exceeded errors for accounts with a $0 balance.
What happens when I run out of the test minutes?
As you use your minutes, you can monitor the usage in summary and in detail for all trial features. During the free trial, usage is calculated and subtracted from your available credit as you use the products. Once you’ve used all of your minutes for any of the trial features, your account will begin to be charged according to your current payment method.
If you are a new prepaid customer you’ll need to add a payment method and funds to your account to continue using the Video API. You can add your payment method at any point during your trial to avoid any lapse in service when your credits run out. You can turn on balance notifications to send notifications when the balance hits a low threshold or enable auto reload to top up your account balance automatically when it falls below a certain level.
