Minute Usage Explained
Understand how your minutes are counted and used.
Before you begin
- Open the Babelbeez dashboard in your browser.
Two types of minutes
- Base minutes
- Included with your monthly plan.
- Add‑on minutes
- One‑time purchases to boost your balance when you need more.
How minutes are used
- Your agent uses base minutes first.
- When base minutes run out, your agent uses add‑on minutes.
- If both are exhausted, the agent may stop responding until you add more minutes or your plan renews.
Where to see your balance
- Check the balance shown in your dashboard (and watch for low‑minutes emails).
- You can also review plan details in the Customer Portal.
Tips
- Expecting a short spike? Buy add‑on minutes.
- Seeing steady growth? Consider upgrading your plan.
- Keep your email current so you receive Low‑minutes emails.
Troubleshooting
- My agent stopped responding
- You may be out of minutes. Buy add‑on minutes or upgrade your plan.
- I added minutes but don’t see the change
- Refresh the dashboard. If still missing, re‑open the Customer Portal to confirm the purchase.
