> [!NOTE]

> Slots with zero delivered messages cost zero credits. When a slot delivers at least one message, each open `preconfSubscribe` subscription is billed the greater of 300 credits or 10 credits per delivered message. Uncovered slots cost zero. The `includeSource` and `regionInclude` settings determine which covered slots are eligible for billing. See the Preconfirmations pricing section for complete billing details.

To ensure continued service after you run out of monthly credits, [Autoscaling](https://www.helius.dev/docs/billing/additional-credits.md) is enabled by default on Business and Professional plans.

## Frequently Asked Questions

> [accordion] Which Helius plan is right for me?
>
> It depends on your use case. The **Free** plan is ideal for prototyping and development with 1M monthly credits and 10 RPC req/s. The **Developer** plan (\$49/month) suits production applications that need the LaserStream WebSocket Helius extensions (`transactionSubscribe`, enhanced `accountSubscribe`), 50 RPC req/s, LaserStream gRPC on Devnet, and chat support. The **Business** plan (\$499/month) adds 200 RPC req/s, LaserStream gRPC on mainnet, and priority chat for high-throughput applications. The **Professional** plan (\$999/month) is designed for trading firms and streaming-heavy workloads with 500 RPC req/s and direct Slack/Telegram support. For needs beyond these tiers, [contact sales](https://www.helius.dev/contact) for a custom Enterprise plan.

> [accordion] What's the difference between the Agent plan and the Free plan?
>
> Both plans include the same features: 1M monthly credits, 10 RPC req/s, 2 DAS & Enhanced API req/s, LaserStream WebSocket (standard Solana methods), and community support. The difference is how you sign up. The Free plan is available through the [Helius Dashboard](https://dashboard.helius.dev). The Agent plan is for programmatic signup via the [Helius CLI](https://www.helius.dev/docs/agents/cli.md) or [MCP server](https://www.helius.dev/docs/agents/mcp.md) and requires a one-time \$10 USDC payment plus an email, first name, and last name for every new signup.

> [accordion] What are Data Add-Ons?
>
> Data Add-Ons are fixed monthly data allowances for [LaserStream gRPC](https://www.helius.dev/docs/laserstream/grpc.md) and [LaserStream WebSocket](https://www.helius.dev/docs/rpc/websocket.md) usage, available exclusively on the **Professional** plan. They replace pay-per-use metering with predictable monthly costs ranging from \$500/month for 5 TB to \$6,000/month for 100 TB. Any usage beyond your allowance is charged at 2 credits per 0.1 MB (uncompressed). For allowances above 100 TB, [contact sales](https://www.helius.dev/contact).

> [accordion] How is Wallet-as-a-Service billed?
>
> [Wallet-as-a-Service](https://www.helius.dev/docs/waas/overview.md) bills through your existing Helius credits — there is no separate subscription and no per-monthly-active-user fee. Each signature costs **200 credits** (\$0.001 at the standard credit rate), which covers the embedded wallet and signing. Wallet count doesn't change your bill; only signatures do. You're billed per signature the wallet produces, so a transaction that fails on-chain after it was signed is still billed; only signing attempts that never complete (for example, a user who cancels the prompt) are free. WaaS is available on paid plans only (Developer and above) and is currently in beta. Track wallets, signatures, and credits spent on the [dashboard](https://dashboard.helius.dev) in **WaaS → Analytics**.

> [accordion] Can I switch plans at any time?
>
> Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time from the [billing dashboard](https://dashboard.helius.dev/billing). Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing for the remainder of your cycle. Downgrades for crypto subscriptions take effect immediately with a prorated credit applied to your next billing cycle. For fiat subscription downgrades, manage the change from the [billing dashboard](https://dashboard.helius.dev/billing).
