Increasing API tier before going to production

Gemini API

We are in tier 1. We want to get to tier 2, so we can run in production without hitting rate limits. Last month, we spent $39. That has been successfully paid.

  1. Is the tier per project or account wide?
  2. What is the best way to quickly meet the $100 spend threshold and level up to Tier 3? Is there a burn money button somewhere? Better yet, is there a way to pre-pay?
  3. Do we really have to wait 30 days after paying $100 before leveling up to Tier 3?

Hi @CaseScribe_Robert, The tier is for the project to which the billing account was linked. Currently there is no possibility of moving to the higher tier before the requirements are met. will bring this concern to the engineering team’s attention. Thank You.
