Stop Building Billing Infrastructure.
Start Shipping.

Usage billing is a black hole. Teams spend months building invoicing, retry logic, and chargeback handling. You don't have that time. You shouldn't need it.

I worked on GitHub's metered billing systems. Drip is what I wish existed.

Your entire billing integration:

// 1. Get money in
await drip.checkout({ customerId, amount: 5000 });
// 2. Charge for usage
await drip.usage({ customerId, amount: 0.001 });

That's it. We handle prepaid balances, batched settlements, and zero-chargeback collection.

A Week in Your Billing Team's Life

If this looks familiar, you're not alone. Every API company fights this battle.

With Drip

Monday

Customers prepay. No disputes possible. Ship features instead.

Wednesday

No invoices. Balance runs low? Auto-prompt to top up. No collections.

Friday

Balance-based. No cards to expire. Customers just add more credits when ready.

✕

Without Drip

Monday

Customer disputes $47 charge. Pull logs, write evidence doc. 2 hours gone.

Wednesday

3 invoices overdue. Send reminder emails. One customer is ghosting you.

Friday

Customer's card expired. Chase them to update payment method. They churn instead.

This is what billing infrastructure looks like before and after Drip.

Before: Your billing folder

/src/billing/
├── stripe-webhook-handler.ts (400 lines)

After: Your entire billing code

// billing.ts
// Get money in
await drip.checkout({ customerId, amount: 5000 });
// Charge for usage
await drip.usage({ customerId, amount: 0.001 });
Total: 2 API calls. We handle the rest.

No webhooks. No retry logic. No dispute handling. No invoice generation.

Built For These Exact Scenarios

If any of these sound like you, Drip will save you real money.

AI & LLM APIs

You're building an OpenAI wrapper and Stripe's $0.30 minimum means you can't charge $0.002 per request profitably.

Example pricing:
$0.002 / 1K tokens

Cloud Infrastructure

You charge per GB of storage or compute-second, but payment fees make anything under $0.50 unprofitable.

Example pricing:
$0.0001 / GB transferred

Developer APIs

You want to charge per API call but can't batch requests into monthly invoices because usage varies too much.

Example pricing:
$0.01 / API request

High-Volume Transactions

You process thousands of small payments but fees eat your margins before you see profit.

Example pricing:
$0.05 / transaction
