# Usage-based billing

Usage-based billing is a pricing model where a client is charged based on their consumption level of the product or service.

There are three ways to implement Usage-based billing:

1. You can configure and set up a **Usage-based Billing product** with different [pricing models](/frisbii/docs/usage-based-billing) and add it to the subscription as described [here](/frisbii/docs/usage-based-billing) and [here](/frisbii/docs/create-a-subscription).
2. You can use **additional costs**.
  1. Under Customers > **Customers** open the **Customer Details** page by double clicking on the concerned customer in the list.
  2. In the **Subscriptions** box, click on the subscription you would like to change.
  3. In the **Pending costs and credits** box, click on Add costs.
  4. Enter the Description, Quantity, Price and VAT rate to the **Order line**.
  5. Click on **Confirm**.
3. You can generate an **on-demand invoice for the subscription**.
  1. Under Customers > **Customers** open the **Customer Details** page by double clicking on the concerned customer in the list.
  2. In the **Subscriptions** box, click on the subscription you would like to change.
  3. In the **Invoices** box, click on **Create invoice**.
