====================

How legacy PAYG billing records relate to the current self-hosted license model.

Current Status
--------------

PAYG records are legacy billing artifacts from the retired APVISO-hosted execution model. New real-target pentests are authorized by your self-hosted license, allowed target visibility, healthy runner heartbeat, and runner concurrency.

Why You May Still See PAYG
--------------------------

Historical invoices, transactions, and retest records may still appear for scans created before the self-hosted BYOK pivot. They are retained for accounting and audit continuity.

Current Billing Model
---------------------

Use **Settings -> Billing** to manage your self-hosted license tier. Stripe still handles subscription payment methods and invoices, but APVISO does not charge hosted scan metering for current BYOK runner execution.

Refunds
-------

There is no APVISO-hosted scan refund path in self-hosted mode. BYOK model spend is billed by your provider and runner infrastructure costs stay in your environment.
