Ross is correct. You only pay for what you use. If your app doesn't go over the free quotas, you pay nothing, regardless of how you set your maximum daily budget. When you set your budget for the first time, you go through the Google Checkout process to authorize the maximum budget. This process does *not* charge you any money, it only authorizes the budget. -- Dan On Fri, Feb 27, 2009 at 1:50 PM, Ross M Karchner wrote: > From what I can tell, the $1 is a *budget*, you won't be charged anything > if you don't go over the free quotas. > > > On Fri, Feb 27, 2009 at 4:23 PM, MajorProgamming wrote: > >> >> Suppose I set up billing with a $1 budget/day (which is the minimum). >> I understand that I will be billed $7/week. >> >> What happens if I don't go over any of the free quotas the first week? >> Will Google bill me again the next week? >> >> What happens if I use $2 the first week?

Oh! Thanks a lot for all your help. The wording on the billing page is a bit confusing. It makes it sound as though the credit card is charged every week, regardless of usage.
