PPR analytic

Last month, I changed the pricing for two of my Actors to Pay Per Result (PPR). However, when I checked the analytics, it still shows a number of free users and zero paying users. I’m confused as to how there are still free users accessing the Actor under the new PPR pricing. Where are these free users coming from? Could please help clarify this? Thank you! https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1395650883034939412/1395650883181609040/image.png?ex=687b38ac&is=6879e72c&hm=2225ea53faf49526437babee3c1be5aaf3eb29a034a57eb9b32585c22a6c3f18&

Hey please drop Actor ids. Also when did you change the pricing? There maybe users from old cycle of pricing..

@User Never mind, I’ll check again next month to see if the problem persists and will update you 😁 . Just one question: if the PPR pricing is effective, shouldn’t the number of free users be zero?
s
there will be free users using PPR actor too, right 🤔

@Saurav Jain So if all of my users are free users (and remain free users forever), my PPR actor won’t gain any profit — is that right? Sorry, I’m still trying to make sense of the PPR concept. 😅

@joefree just advanced to level 15! Thanks for your contributions! 🎉

I thought with PPR, I would still earn profit from every run, even from free users. So I removed the data limit setting — but I guess I should reapply the limit for free users?

So, every user have free $5 credits. If they use that to test your Actor you don’t lose anything, we dont charge usage from you. But if they are on any plan you earn money. Many of devs limits the free usage upto a limit lets say 100 results for free users so they can test the Actor and charge further. Totally upto your strategy

Yes, you won't get anything from free users.

Gotcha, thanks 🙏🏻
