Billing details

Top-ups add prepaid credit that pays for third-party models from the first request at API list price and for Cursor-model usage beyond the weekly pool; a monthly additional-usage limit caps spending. Official source 1 ↗ · Official source 2 ↗

Teams and Enterprise add a Cursor Token Rate of $0.25 per million tokens to third-party model requests, including BYOK usage; individual plans do not pay it. Official source 1 ↗

Existing Pro, Pro+, Ultra, Start and Teams Standard or Premium subscribers can keep their legacy plan with two monthly usage pools and on-demand usage, or switch to The X Subscription with a prorated refund. Official source 1 ↗ · Official source 2 ↗
