Use budget alerts for these purposes:
  • Monitor your data usage of Unity Gaming Services
  • Control your spend for your organization against a defined budget

Budget

A budget is a monthly spending limit that you set for selected services across all projects in an organization. To regularly monitor spending, define alerts for specific thresholds.
Important
Budgets are only for notification purposes. When you reach your budget, services aren't turned off and continue to be billed at their applicable rates.

Alerts

Use alerts to control monthly spending and adjust your spending and usage. Alerts inform you when you're approaching a budget threshold or a free-tier limit.
Choose a tool for your alerts:
  • The notification tray in the Unity Dashboard
  • Email
  • Slack
Important
Budget usage may take up to a day to be reported. This delay affects the calculated spend during the budget period. Budget alert notifications may be delayed.

Free-tier alerts

Free-tier alerts inform you when you reach 75% and 100% of the free-tier limit for any Unity gaming service. You can't customize the usage threshold for free-tier alerts.
You can opt out of receiving free-tier email alerts.

Budget alerts

Budget alerts notify organization Owners when the organization reaches a defined budget threshold. If not explicitly defined, the default thresholds are 50%, 90%, and 100% of the budget.
