### Exceeding Billing Limits | ||
|
||
Once you have used all of your starter credits, or exceeded your set monthly usage limit, you will start seeing errors in your dashboard & via the API mentioning `Billing Limits Exceeded`. | ||

||
During calls, requests will be made to different providers in the voice pipeline: | ||
|
||
- **transcription providers:** providers conducting speech-to-text | ||
- **model providers:** LLM providers | ||
- **voice providers:** providers conducting text-to-speech | ||
- **telephony providers:** providers like [Twilio](https://www.twilio.com)/[Vonage](https://www.vonage.com) that facilitate phone calls | ||
|
||
<Info> | ||
Per-minute telephony costs only occur during inbound/outbound phone calling. Web calls do not | ||
incur this cost. | ||
</Info> | ||
|
||
## Where Provider Costs End-up | ||
|
||
There are 2 places these charges can end up: | ||
|
||
1. **Provider-side:** in the account you have with the provider. | ||
2. **With Vapi:** in your Vapi account. | ||
|
||
### Provider-side Billing | ||
|
||
If we have [provider keys](/provider-keys) on file for a provider, the cost will be seen directly | ||
in your account with the provider. Vapi will have made the request on your behalf with your provider key. | ||
|
||
No charge will be made to your Vapi account. | ||
|
||
### Billed with Vapi | ||
|
||
If no key is found on-file for the provider, Vapi will make the API request itself (with Vapi's own keys, at Vapi's expense). This expense is then passed on [**at-cost**](/glossary#at-cost) to be billed directly to your Vapi account. | ||
|
||
No charge will show up provider-side. | ||
|
||
## Billing That "Just Works" | ||
|
||
The central idea is that everything is designed to "just work". Whether you are billed provider-side, or on Vapi's side, you will never be charged with any margin for provider fees incurred during calls. | ||
|
||
All operational costs would have been incurred anyway. |
