Hi,
Not sure if anyone asked this question before, but I couldn't find
information about it.

So my issue is -
When I first approved a weekly budget and input my payment
information, I got charged $50 up front, which was fine.
It showed $50 like this - ($50.00).
Now every time my website exceeded the free quota, I got charged a few
$$$ and reduced my credit every time which was fine.
Now it reached to a point where I have reached a balance of ($1.21).

Question is - Will my credit card get charged the second my balance
hit $0 ?
I don't want my website to be unavailable, I need to make sure it gets
recharged again (because I cannot find any other option that lets me
charge my account back to say $50).
Will Google automatically charge me ?

Thanks in advance,
I apologize if I'm not too clear, it's a very late hour. :-)

Cheers!

I think that $50 is from the credit google was giving every app that had billing enabled back in oct

Ok, I see, so Google will charge me automatically ?
I don't need to do anything other than make sure my payment
information is correct ?

Thanks again!

That's right. It's a credit we gave to customers after we enabled the new billing a few months ago.

Google charges my credit card every week and I imagine it will be the
same for you.

Also you can pay the bills elastically, which is GREAT!

My CC's limit is always full, so sometimes when the Appengine bill comes it is rejected, so I fill the CC and re-initiate the payment from Google Wallet, that part is a bit tricky-buggy, you have to delete your CC and add it again
