Billing & Plans
BuildMagic uses a plan-based billing system. Each team is on a plan that determines their build minute quotas, maximum number of applications, and team size limits.
Plans
Your team's plan defines the following limits:
| Limit | Description |
|---|---|
| Build Minutes | Total minutes of build time allowed per month across all applications. |
| Applications | Maximum number of applications your team can create. |
| Team Members | Maximum number of members that can be invited to the team. |
| Builds per Month | Maximum number of builds that can be triggered per month. |
Viewing Your Usage
- Go to Settings → Billing in the dashboard.
- You'll see your current plan and usage summary.
- Usage bars show how much of each quota you've consumed.
Usage is tracked per team and resets at the beginning of each billing cycle (monthly).
What Counts as Build Time?
Build minutes are measured as the total wall-clock time from when a build starts executing on a worker to when it completes (successfully, with a failure, or due to timeout). Time spent in the queue waiting for a worker does not count toward your build minutes.
What Happens When You Hit a Limit?
When your team reaches a plan limit:
- Build minutes exceeded — New builds will be blocked until the next billing cycle.
- Max applications reached — You won't be able to create new applications until you delete an existing one or upgrade your plan.
- Max builds per month reached — New builds will be blocked until the next billing cycle.
- Max team members reached — You won't be able to invite additional members until you remove someone or upgrade.
Upgrading Your Plan
To upgrade your plan, contact your BuildMagic administrator or reach out to the BuildMagic team. Plan changes take effect immediately and your usage quotas are updated accordingly.
Usage Tracking
BuildMagic automatically tracks:
- Build minutes — Total wall-clock time of all builds.
- Number of builds — Total builds triggered per billing cycle.
- Storage — Artifact and code signing file storage used by your team.
