A question about the pricing model. Suppose we go for the scale plan and that we on average has 40,000 DAU, but on some days we have only 25,000 DAU

How does the monthly and yearly pricing work in these cases. I assume that I don’t have to pay monthly what I chose on the slider on the pricing page? Do I pay only the scale plan fee and then the DAU spending at the end of every month or do I really pay say 40,000 DAU worth every month and then adjust the next month/year?

Our business is very seasonal.

PS: I had scheduled a call, but it was cancelled and cannot follow up through email

Hey Michael, pinging <@U059YJ4ME0J> to reach out to you

Can you share the steps that lead to the schedule to fail? Maybe there is a bug in the form or something?

the former - you pay the scale plan + overage calculated each month, which is based on the _average_ DAUs over that month
