Heads up. The $5 is a one-time Free credit allowance that does not renew. Existing Free users keep their monthly credits. The page says to check billing settings for allowance and expiration dates, but does not publish those dates. The Free plan also has a 7 message/day limit. This is not the live Vercel for Startups program or the Reflection Beam AI Gateway offer, and it is not the separate $5 AI Gateway credit mentioned on that Beam listing.
