Learn how to record customer usage data.
Throughout each billing period, you must record usage in Stripe to bill your customers the correct amounts. You can decide how often you record usage in Stripe. You can record usage in Stripe using the Dashboard or API.
To record usage in Stripe, first configure your meter and then add the recorded usage through the Stripe Dashboard or API.
Stripe processes meter events asynchronously, so aggregated usage in meter event summaries and on upcoming invoices might not immediately reflect recently received meter events.
