Get the full picture of how our Usage Fees work, what’s included in your monthly subscription, and how our bonus Monthly Credits can help you maximize value without breaking the bank.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, businesses rely heavily on advanced marketing tools, Social Proof, and AI-powered solutions to stand out in the marketplace. At Social Proof Solutions™, we believe in

Transparent Billing—and that means making sure you understand every aspect of our pricing. Below, you’ll find a detailed breakdown of the extra fees you might incur based on usage, how we calculate them, and plenty of real-world examples to show just how far an additional $5 can stretch.


But that’s not all: each month, we’ll automatically credit your account with $5 towards your Usage Fees. These monthly credits do not roll over—so it’s “use-it or lose-it” each billing cycle. We want you to get the most value possible out of your membership while maintaining complete transparency. Ready for a closer look? Let’s dive in!

Why We Charge Usage Fees

Our monthly subscription gives you a robust set of baseline features and access to our foundational marketing suite, including tools for managing review strategy and outreach. However, certain actions—like phone calls, text messages, AI content generation, and more—incur actual third-party costs. To keep our pricing fair, instead of inflating the subscription rate for everyone, we separate these costs out as Usage Fees. This way, each business only pays for what they actually use, ensuring Cost-Effective Solutions that scale up or down, depending on your needs.

How Monthly Credits Work

Every month, as soon as your subscription renews, your account is automatically granted a $5 credit that offsets your Usage Fees. This credit is intended to help you cover light usage or experiment with new features at no extra cost.

  • $5 Monthly Credit automatically applied

  • Credits do not roll over; any unused portion is forfeited at the end of your monthly cycle

  • Additional usage beyond the $5 credit is billed separately and will appear on your invoice

In short: our Monthly Credits make it easier to try new tools like AI integration or additional phone services with minimal risk.

FAQs About Our Usage Fees

What if I don’t use the entire $5 monthly credit?

The unused portion expires at the end of your billing cycle. It does not roll over to the next month—hence the “use-it or lose-it” phrase.

Can I purchase more than $5 of usage in advance?

Absolutely. You’ll simply be billed for your total usage each month. If you need a bigger buffer, consider our cost-effective add-on plans like the AI Employee Unlimited or the Workflow Pro Plan.

Is there an option to cap my usage to avoid extra fees?

We currently do not offer a hard cap, but you can closely monitor your usage in real-time through our dashboard. If you find yourself consistently going over, upgrade to an unlimited or bulk plan.

Are there any hidden fees or markups?

None whatsoever. We charge you directly based on our disclosed usage rates. If at any time our third-party costs change, we’ll let you know in advance.

Maximizing Value & Minimizing Costs

  • Leverage Your Monthly Credits: Even if you’re a light user, those extra $5 can go a long way when spread across calls, texts, or Reviews AI.


  • Bundle Up: If you use multiple AI-driven features (content generation, conversation replies, etc.), the AI Employee Unlimited is a great way to control costs.


  • Stay Efficient: Regularly check your usage metrics in the dashboard. If you notice certain tasks are draining your credits quickly, consider refining your campaiParagraphgns or switching to a more specialized plan.

When you can see exactly what you’re paying for—and how it directly ties to your marketing results—you’ll be more confident about where to allocate resources. That’s why we strive to make Usage Fees both transparent and flexible.
