Postman provides tools to help you manage your team’s usage of credits in Postman Flows. Flows pricing is based on consumption, with each Postman plan including a monthly allocation of credits. Eligible plans can enable pay-as-you-go to continue usage beyond their included credits.
You can use the Resource usage dashboard to track credit consumption and manage billing settings.
Flows access and included credits
All plans include a baseline number of Flows credits each month so you can explore and use Flows.
Credits are allocated monthly per team and do not roll over.
View flows usage
To check your team’s current credit usage, click your avatar on the top right and select Billing & resource usage, then click Resource usage to open the Resource usage dashboard.
When your team reaches its monthly credit limit:
- Flows that are currently running complete.
- New runs that require credits are paused.
- You can enable pay-as-you-go (if available on your plan) to continue usage.
How Flows consume credits
Credits are deducted when Flows run, based on the blocks used and where they execute. Only blocks listed in the following pricing table consume credits.
There are two types of runs:
-
Manual runs (clicking Run in the app) only consume credits for blocks that run in the cloud, such as AI and connector blocks. However, if you have Cloud Run enabled when you test a flow on your local canvas, it runs in the cloud and consumes credits.
-
Automated runs (triggered using API or MCP) consume credits for HTTP requests and logic blocks, in addition to AI and connector blocks.
This usage-based model supports everything from simple API calls to complex AI-powered workflows.
Premium block pricing
Post–March 1, 2026
Premium blocks are blocks that execute code or perform external operations.
AI Agent models and tools
The AI Agent block consumes credits based on the models and tools used during a block run.
External MCP tool charges apply once per agent block run. For example, if the block is called in a loop 3 times, it’s charged 3x2=6 credits.
The number of credits consumed by AI models is subject to change.
AI media models
AI media generation is billed based on the model used.
Pay-as-you-go credits
If your plan supports it, you can enable pay-as-you-go to continue using Flows after your included credits are exhausted.
- Additional credits are billed at $1 per 1,000 credits
- Credits are billed based on actual usage
- Monthly included credits do not roll over.
Enterprise teams can purchase additional credits or discuss custom usage with their account team.
Pay-as-you-go is turned off by default. To activate it, click your avatar on the top right and select Billing & resource usage. Click Resource usage to open the Resource usage dashboard and turn on Pay-as-you-go under Flows Credits.
Private Flow runner
Private Flow runner is available only on Enterprise plans.
