Hello Google AI / Gemini billing team,
I need a manual billing synchronization for my Gemini API project. I am receiving a persistent “402 Payment Required” error when calling the API, even though my billing account has available prepaid funds.
Current State:
-
Billing Account ID: 008F06-426E9F-DF96..
-
I have successfully added a prepaid credit balance to this Cloud Billing account.
-
However, in Google AI Studio, the project fails to recognize this balance.
-
When I click the “Set up prepay” button in AI Studio to try and fix it, I immediately receive a “System error” (“Erro do sistema” / “Error during billing setup”) modal.
Because the AI Studio frontend is throwing a System Error, I am completely blocked from linking my existing credit balance to the Gemini API, and all my API requests are failing with 402.
Could an engineer please manually synchronize/reopen this billing account on the backend and activate the Prepay paid tier so I can use my API key again?
Thank you!
