Best Practices for Usage-based Billing to Monetize APIs
API monetization is a great way to recoup your investment into your API programs. Without direct monetization, you’re dependent on other sources of capital to grow the program, such as other profit centers or venture capital. If you’re not directly monetizing your APIs, you could be leaving money on the table. This can be especially true if you don’t have any limits in place and lean on the honor system.
