Wave has one wallet for each organization. Charges come out of the wallet. You manage the wallet on the Billing page of the portal. All amounts are in Saudi riyals (SAR).

Who can do what

The Billing page is open from the first day. You do not need a Go-Live to use it.

Wallet

The top of the Billing page shows your balance. Below it you see these parts:
  • Rate plan. The unit price of each usage type.
  • Usage. The charges of the last 30 days, with the price in SAR. The list shows at most 500 charges.
  • Invoices. The invoices of your organization.
When the balance is 0 or less, an action that costs money returns 402 INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS. For example, buying a number is such an action. Top up to continue.

Call charges

A call charge counts each started minute of an answered production call. The minimum is one minute. A sandbox call is not billed. See Sandbox mode. Each charge shows on the Usage list, and the amount comes out of the wallet.

Top up

  1. Open Billing.
  2. Select an amount (50, 100 or 500 SAR), or type your own amount. The amount must be more than 0 and not more than 100,000 SAR.
  3. Select Top up.
  4. The portal sends you to the payment page of the payment provider. Pay there with a card or Apple Pay.
After you pay, the portal shows Payment received and the new balance. The payment provider tells Wave that the payment is complete, and then Wave adds the money to the wallet. If the page shows Payment not confirmed yet, wait a moment and select Check again. Wave adds the money once only, also if you select Check again many times. Only the owner and the billing role can top up. If the payment provider cannot start the payment, the portal shows an error (502 PAYMENT_FAILED). Try again later.

Project budgets

By default, all projects spend from the main balance. With project budgets, you give each project its own part of the wallet. A project can spend only from its own budget. Project budgets is a switch for the whole organization. Only the owner can turn it on or off.
  • Off (default). Each charge comes out of the main balance.
  • On. Each project spends from its own budget. When the budget of a project reaches 0, the project stops with 402 INSUFFICIENT_PROJECT_BALANCE.
When you turn the switch on, no money moves. A project that has no budget stops working until you add money to it.
To move money:
  1. In Project budgets, find the project. The Unallocated amount is the part of the wallet that no project has.
  2. Type an amount in SAR (at most 2 decimal places).
  3. Select Add to project to move the money from the unallocated amount to the project. Select Take back to move money from the project to the unallocated amount.
If the unallocated amount is less than the amount that you ask for, Wave returns 402 INSUFFICIENT_POOL_BALANCE. If the project has less than the amount that you take back, Wave returns 402 INSUFFICIENT_PROJECT_BALANCE. Select Ledger on a project to see all its entries: money added, money taken back, usage, refunds and adjustments. Each entry shows the balance after it.

Invoices

An invoice groups the usage charges of one period that no invoice has yet. It shows three amounts: The Invoices list shows the period and the three amounts of each invoice. An invoice detail shows one line for each usage type, with the quantity and the net amount. An owner or an admin can select Generate invoice. This groups the charges of the current month so far that no invoice has yet. If there are no such charges, Wave makes no invoice. A charge is on one invoice only.

Billing API

The portal uses these routes. They need a portal session, not an API key.
