Pay Per Event Pricing Issue
# apify-platform
o
Currently we just launched an AI actor which uses AI to provide the result and use the “pay per event” model. Our output is always 1 event only which we want for example to charge $5. The problem is that when users see the pricing model, it shows on app listing pay as $5,000/1,000 results but users only need 1 event/1 output and should see pricing as $5. This makes it hard for them to try it out due to the mistakingly high number. In the documentation in https://help.apify.com/en/articles/10700066-what-is-pay-per-event AND https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/running/actors-in-store#pay-per-event there are screenshots that DO NOT show the $price/1,000 . Is it possible to remove so we can create more AI apps which just need 1 event for output/results? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1427271790970802247/1427271791503740988/Screenshot_2025-10-13_at_8.28.00_PM.png?ex=694544f0&is=6943f370&hm=560b8b819c3595fb09ceb46376ec737e52a0635feedfc963df2d83c347d2295b&

Thank you for the feedback! 🙏 I will notify our team about this so they can consider how to make the pricing display clearer for users.

thanks. let me know if you need links to apps, code snippets or anything else.

Our team is already working on this, it should be ready very soon.

that would be really great, I also find it confusing

@nazarii.hrozia i did see that one of my apps updated pricing correctly to "one time events" 🙂 but i still have 3 more that have not updated. also i have more in development that i want to launch but want to wait to know how to solve before launching. appreciate any insight. thanks!

@One Scales just advanced to level 2! Thanks for your contributions! 🎉

@One Scales It’s likely related to caching on Apify side — sometimes these changes take a bit of time to fully propagate. If it doesn’t update after a while, feel free to let me know here. Thank you🙂

not sure what you mean? can you explain more? (apple side?) (after awhile - 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, etc?)
n
Typo, sorry, it should be fully fixed in one or two weeks our team already working on it, thank you

thanks
looks like it's resolved now. not sure if it will work for new future release apps. hopefully somebody knows?

Hi there @nazarii.hrozia how can we manually trigger this? I have about 10 actors published that need this too
