I’ve had Google charge me $0.01 before for firebase usage.

They really should have waited until I owed more since that cost them money.

They should almost just make it so the blaze plan of firebase or other cloud services has a $1 non refundable pre-payment so they can just whittle away at the pennies instead of getting charged processing/transaction fees on a $0.01 transaction. Tops up to $1 if it goes to $0

I think people would pay $1 to enable the paid plans. If you’re going that far, you’re getting $1 of use out of it.

Once a month I’d have to pay a few pennies to Google for our cloud use at a school district I worked for. It always baffled me!
