# Manage Balance

> Add funds and monitor your account balance.

## Add funds

1. Go to [opencompress.ai/dashboard](https://www.opencompress.ai/dashboard)
2. Click **Add Funds** in the balance section
3. Choose a preset amount ($10, $50, $100, $500, \$1,000) or enter a custom amount
4. Complete payment via Stripe
5. Balance is credited immediately

## Check balance

Your current balance is displayed at the top of the dashboard. It updates in real time as you make API calls.

## Low balance

When your balance reaches \$0:

* API requests return HTTP `402` with `"Insufficient balance"`
* No data is lost — just add more funds and continue
* In-flight streaming requests will complete (we don't cut off mid-stream)

## Usage history

The dashboard shows your complete usage history:

* Per-request breakdown (model, tokens, savings, cost)
* Monthly aggregates (total calls, tokens saved, money saved)
* Compression rate trends over time
