Automatic Top-Ups

Buy credits automatically when your wallet drops below a threshold, so credit-backed scans keep running.

Automatic top-ups let Aikido buy more credits when your wallet runs low. You set the balance that triggers a purchase, how many credits to add, and an optional monthly cap.

Automatic top-ups are not available by credit card. Aikido sends an invoice, and the credits are added after it is paid.

What you need

• Workspace admin access.

• At least one successful payment on the workspace, by card or by invoice. A manual credit purchase counts. That payment unlocks automatic top-ups. Later top-ups are still invoiced.

Turn it on

Open Wallet settings, click Manage next to Automatic Top-Ups, turn it on, and click Save.

Setting	Required	What it does
Top-Up Trigger	Yes	Aikido creates an invoice when the wallet balance drops below this many credits.
Top-Up Amount	Yes	Credits added each time. Minimum 100. One credit is $1 USD.
Monthly Maximum	No	The most credits Aikido invoices automatically in one calendar month. Leave it empty for no cap.

The top-up amount cannot be higher than the monthly maximum.

What happens when the wallet runs low

1. Aikido checks workspaces that have automatic top-ups turned on.

2. If the balance is below the trigger, Aikido creates an invoice for the top-up amount and emails it to workspace admins.

3. The purchase shows in wallet history as Automatic Top-Up with status Awaiting Payment.

4. After the invoice is paid, Aikido adds the credits and the transaction becomes Completed.

Aikido does not create another automatic top-up while an invoice is still unpaid. Pay or settle that invoice before the next one can be issued.

If the balance is still below the trigger after a top-up is paid, Aikido can invoice again, up to the monthly maximum. The monthly maximum resets at the start of each calendar month. It only counts automatic top-ups, not credits you buy yourself and not monthly complimentary credits.

Spending limits

The monthly maximum caps how many credits Aikido buys for you. Spending limits cap how many credits a feature can use. Set both if you want a ceiling on purchases and a ceiling on usage.
