Billable Usage dashboard and Budget alerts for Workers
Pay-as-you-go customers can now monitor usage-based costs with the new Billable Usage dashboard, which shows daily charges matching your invoice, and Budget alerts that send email notifications when projected spending reaches your configured threshold. Both features provide proactive visibility into account spend across usage-based products.
Pay-as-you-go customers can now monitor usage-based costs and configure spend alerts through two new features: the Billable Usage dashboard and Budget alerts.
Billable Usage dashboard
The Billable Usage dashboard provides daily visibility into usage-based costs across your Cloudflare account. The data comes from the same system that generates your monthly invoice, so the figures match your bill.
The dashboard displays:
- A bar chart showing daily usage charges for your billing period
- A sortable table breaking down usage by product, including total usage, billable usage, and cumulative costs
- Ability to view previous billing periods
Usage data aligns to your billing cycle, not the calendar month. The total usage cost shown at the end of a completed billing period matches the usage overage charges on your corresponding invoice.
To access the dashboard, go to Manage Account > Billing > Billable Usage.
Budget alerts
Budget alerts allow you to set dollar-based thresholds for your account-level usage spend. You receive an email notification when your projected monthly spend reaches your configured threshold, giving you proactive visibility into your bill before month-end.
To configure a budget alert:
- Go to Manage Account > Billing > Billable Usage.
- Select Set Budget Alert.
- Enter a budget threshold amount greater than $0.
- Select Create.
Alternatively, configure alerts via Notifications > Add > Budget Alert.
You can create multiple budget alerts at different dollar amounts. The notifications system automatically deduplicates alerts if multiple thresholds trigger at the same time. Budget alerts are calculated daily based on your usage trends and fire once per billing cycle when your projected spend first crosses your threshold.
Both features are available to Pay-as-you-go accounts with usage-based products (Workers, R2, Images, etc.). Enterprise contract accounts are not supported.
For more information, refer to the Usage based billing documentation.
